1 Not legally binding Risk-Sharing Finance Facility and future EU Financial Instruments for RDI Instrumentos financieros para apoyar la investigación, el desarrollo y la innovación en un contexto regional Zaragoza, 30 de octubre de 2012 Marie-Cécile ROUILLON 1 EC - DG Research and Innovation - Unit C-03 Financial Engineering
2 EU Financial Instruments: Why? Guiding principles include: 1. Addressing market/ funding gaps e.g. due to general economic uncertainty, innovation/ business risk 2. Ensuring European Union value added targeting policy goals (notably Innovation Union objectives) Catalytic effect on similar existing MS schemes or private investment, no crowding out 3. Multiplier effect Attracting additional private investment (greater than EU contribution)
3 What are EU Financial Instruments? Guarantees to financial intermediaries that provide lending to e.g. infrastructure projects, SMEs, persons at risk of social exclusion Equity/risk capital: e.g. venture capital to SMEs with high growth potential or risk capital to infrastructure projects Other risk-sharing arrangements with financial intermediaries in order to increase the leverage capacity of the EU funds or a combination of the above with other forms of EU financial assistance 3
4 Financial Instruments for RDI: Advantages / benefits can complement FP7 and HORIZON 2020 grant financing translation of R&D into innovation: FI can support the introduction of new technologies into the market more private funding for RDI: Risk-sharing between the EU and financial intermediaries respond to market demand: Demand-driven approach ("first comes, first served") Possible synergies could be developped (notably with regional Smart Specialisation Strategy)
5 Current FP7 Financial Instruments for RDI (until 2013): Risk-Sharing Finance Facility (RSFF) 5
6 What is the RSFF? An innovative loan finance instrument co-developed by the EC/ EIB and supported by FP7 Operational since 2007 and available until the end of 2013 Provides loan finance for Research, Development, Demonstration and Innovation in EU Member States and FP7 Associated Countries Can support riskier but creditworthy RDI projects through risksharing between the EU and the EIB Is demand-driven: projects supported on a 1st come, 1st served basis (no grant procedures, no expert panels) 6
7 EU/EIB Risk-Sharing & multiplying effect FP7 Contribution: up to 1 billion EIB Contribution: up to 1 billion up to 2 billion for Risk coverage for potential losses (non-repayment of RSFF loans by borrower/ beneficiary) allows EIB Group to provide up to 10 billion of RSFF loans and guarantees for Research, Development & Innovation investments 7
8 RSFF results and portfolio since Mid-2007 to end March 2012 Approved loans (by EIB): EUR 9.6 billion Signed loans (loan contract EIB borrower): EUR 7.5 billion 76 signed projects in 21 European countries (19 MS & 2 AC) Results by sector: 8
9 RSFF by country: 21 so far Spain: 2 nd largest country for RSFF operations (14% of total signed volume) European Investment Bank
10 RSFF Example in Spain: Financing solar power using indigenous renewable energy to contribute to combat climate change Solucar Solar Thermal Power project : Europe's first commercially operating power station using the sun's energy, west of Seville (Spain) EUR 50 million RSFF loan to further develop a large scale application of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technology, generating electricity without greenhouse-gas emissions Field of mirrors to concentrate solar radiation on a tower-mounted thermal receiver 10
11 More for innovative SMEs Risk-Sharing Instrument (RSI): Goal: Incentivising local banks to take more risk to finance innovative companies RSI launched in 2012, 1 st agreements signed with banks EIF guarantees to local banks (financial intermediaries) providing loans or leases (from 25,000 to 7.5 million) Target group: Research-intensive and/ or innovative SMEs & small mid-caps investing in RDI EIF provides a 50% guarantee per eligible loan, within loan portfolios; EU takes first-loss risk vis-à-vis the EIF Maximum portfolio volume of 120 million per intermediary 11
12 Lessons learned Make implementation simple and streamline the rules Specific legal framework increases trust and confidence Strive for coherence and consistency between instruments Prioritise awareness-raising to stimulate demand New risk-sharing arrangements => higher finance volumes Generally positive audits and evaluations of outputs Closer coordination with Structural Funds (link to CSF!)
