Doing business and investing in Africa
Source: IFC, World Bank & OECD (2013)
Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business, from 1 –185. A high ranking on the ease of doing business index means the regulatory environment is more conducive to the starting and operation of a local firm. This index averages the country's percentile rankings on 10 topics, made up of a variety of indicators such as: Starting a Business, Getting Credit and Enforcing Contracts
Countries that are the most difficult to do business in
African countries Other countries
Nine of the ten most difficult countries in the world to do business in are in
Africa
More than half of the world’s fragile economies are in Sub-Saharan Africa
Fragile economies“A fragile region or state has weak capacity to carry out basic
governance functions, and lacks the ability to develop mutually constructive relations with society. Fragile states are also more
vulnerable to internal or external shocks such as economic crises or natural disasters… Fragility and resilience should be seen as
shifting points along a spectrum” (OECD, 2012).
African Countries include: Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan, Chad, Niger, Nigeria, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Togo, Cameroon, Angola, CAR, DRC, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, Malawi, Kenya, Ethiopia, Comoros, Somalia,

Therefore, within this complex environment, the DBSA has carved a niche for itself in pursuit of the national interest.
THE BANK’S FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM STATEMENT FOR AFRICA
How do we address continent‘s catalytic infrastructure needs in such a way as to:▪ Facilitate regional integration ▪ Support commodity-led industrialisation▪ Promote inclusive economic growth ▪ Strengthen its value adding linkages into the global economy?
The DBSA needs to define the projects that matter, finance the projects that matter and
prepare the projects that matter

IntroductionOverview Priority
Sectors• Founded in 1983• 100% owned by SA Government• Total assets of R63.8billion• Mission is to advance development
impact in the region by expanding access to development finance and effectively integrating and implementing sustainable development solutions
• Focus is on preparing, financing and implementing bulk infrastructure projects in South Africa and the rest of the African continent

DBSA’s Geographic Mandate
REVISED DBSA MANDATE DBSA FOCUS
Although the DBSA’s mandate allows for investment in all countries on the African continent, the DBSA will continue to primarily focus its investment activities in SADC.
A gradual approach will be pursued into the rest of Africa, by initially pursuing opportunities only in the following 6 pivot countries outside of SADC:
For continental , regional and national strategic considerations, the DBSA may consider investments outside the pivot countries identified here, on a case by case basis.
GhanaNigeria
Republic of Congo
Kenya
Rwanda
• Ghana• Nigeria
• (Ethiopia)
• Rwanda• Republic of Congo
• Kenya• Uganda
In the road sector alone addressing under-maintenance can save governments up to $1.9 billion in rehabilitation.DBSA step in to support sovereign entities and state backed companies where there is sufficient market demand and if this is absent, work with private sector partners to alleviate the burden on the state fiscus.

• US$350m towards the development of telecommunications infrastructure
• 2,960MW energy generation capacity
• 9,000,000 m³ bulk water storage volume
• 865km of gas pipelines• 183m GJ pa of gas
production capacity• 75,000t of petroleum product
transportation capacity• US$200m in support of
growing regional development banks
The DBSA’s contribution to core economic infrastructure (e.g. energy, roads, water and sanitation and ICT) development in SADC has been far reaching.
Examples of DBSA’s contributions over the past several years
In South Africa (over the past 5 years)
• Contributed 0.2% (average) to national GDP per year
• Created 25,700 (average) jobs per year
• 2,800 km of road rehabilitation
• 3 Ports projects• US$614m towards the
development of transport infrastructure

Project Preparation (PP) support canbe defined as financial and nonfinancial / capacity support to projectsponsors, to prepare projects tobankability. This support includesamongst other things feasibility studies,modeling, designs and related activitiesto prepare a Project InformationMemorandum (PIM) to enable the DFIto appraise and consider the project forlending;
Preparation of projects for lending isdone with the objective to ensure agood quality pipeline of projects and issupplementary to prepared projectspresented to DFI lending divisions;
DBSA will not only use its own sourcesto fund the preparation activities but willmobilise funding from national andinternational donors / funders

CONCLUSIONS• DFIs willing to facilitate participation in PPPs Structures to deliver
core infrastructure to relieve public sector balance sheet limitations • The Optimality in PPPs is a must, to balance demand risk, user fee
distortions and opportunity cost of public funds implies min revenue guarantee and a revenue cap
• Economics of value add (ROIC > Cost of Capital) at a project/programme level must be considered to justify the economic rationale
• Select equity/Mezzanine participation can be considered in projects to create capacity ahead of demand and where risk-return profile justify a share in the upside
• Financial Sustainability of PPPs via SPCs, Project finance manner, Credit risk, Gearing , Collateral and Contracts mandatory
• Partnerships with Sponsors/funders should be mutually beneficial, to access new funding opportunities
