17 Steven Zecher Project Finance Research Advisor, Koret-Milken Institute Fellows Program/ Milken Institute Israel Center Creating a Financing Vehicle for the Galilee and Negev
18 Current Situation: Few projects with limited financing potential Lack of critical mass Limited results Low leverage Limited sustainability Limited revenues Few developers Development risks Long lead times/ regulation Limited business opportunity High development costs Limited revenue base Government exposure One-off financial models High transaction cost Lack of competition Limited track record Fragmented and sporadic investments/ contributions
19 New Approach: Feasible projects attracting competitive financing Critical mass Results Leverage Sustainability Business plans Robust market Managed Risks Long lead times/ regulation Regional priorities based on business models Lower marginal development costs Pledgeable revenues Credit enhancements Lower marginal transaction costs More financing choices Off-the-shelf models
20 What will the financing vehicle do? Open access to public and private capital markets Create a reserve fund to enhance credits of regional projects Leverage government credit using philanthropic and mission-related investments Strengthen the regional capacity to package financially-feasible and sustainable projects
21 What are some examples of projects and related revenue?

51 What Types of Project Can Be Done? Types Regional centers BioPharm Renewable Energy Industrial Development Tourism Cluster Development Solid Waste to Energy Examples Industrial clusters, technologies clusters, business centers Industrial clusters, technology clusters, and research centers New technology demonstration facilities Industry incubators, research centers, industrial zones, and regional marketing Heritage Asset Districts, ecotourism, heritage preservation Integrated systems, source separation, materials recovery, new treatment and energy source technologies
52 Regional Financing: What Should It Do? Provide a conduit to new sources of capital Create a vehicle to focus market-rate and philanthropic investment to important regional projects Compete for investors by offering attractive financing investments, including secure, credit-enhanced, and competitive bonds Maintain itself financially by creating sustainable revenue sources Increase financial service and resources for local and regional authorities and regional businesses 52
