17 17 4. PSC: Best practice principles 17
18 Typical EBRD Structure for UT Operator (metro/lrt/bus) Financing 18 CITY/STATE COMPENSATION BASED ON OPERATIONAL PLAN GUARANTEE OR OTHER SUPPORT AGREEMENT PASSENGERS FARE REVENUE SERVICES PUBLIC SERVICE CONTRACT LOAN INSURANCE COMPANY TRANSPORT OPERATOR BUS INSURANCE 18
19 Roles and Responsibilities within PSC 19 Public Sector as the Client: Defines network, policy, service standards, tariffs Sets & enforces regulatory framework Formally agrees amount and quality of services Makes compensation payments using gross-cost PSC (payment/km formula) to cover difference between tariff revenues and full operational costs Operator as Service Provider: Takes on operational and managerial risks Provides services according to key PSC performance levels (reliability, punctuality, safety, cleanliness, customer satisfaction); Operates & maintains new and improved rolling stock 19
20 Advantages for City 20 Operational & commercialised focus: Payment for quality controlled services only Gives incentives to public transport company to focus on operational efficiency Simplifies public sector budgeting by linking payments to PSC payment formula -- smooth & predictable over many years Penalties and remedies for failure to provide required quality International experience shows per cent savings initially on price/km basis Integrated smart-card ticketing introduction has an additional per cent improvement on the sector s finances 20
21 Advantages for Public Transport Operator 21 Provides multi-year stable revenues per contractual formula in PSC very similar to availability payment stream in PPPs Sharp operational focus: public payments based only on delivered services as per PSC agreed operational plan and KPI compliance similar to UK PFI approach Passenger demand risk transferred to City within the PSC Annual indexation formula linked to key cost inputs (labour, fuel, inflation, etc..) Incentives and penalties for performance quality Increases ridership over time as quality improves 21
22 22 5. PSC : Model template 22
23 European and National Regulatory Requirements 23 Adopted by European Parliament and Council on 23 October 2007 Regulation entered into force in 3 December 2009; 10-year transition period ending 3 December 2019 for all Member States to adopt regulation-compliant award procedure Regulation only fixes a framework. Every Member State is free to decide which entity is best suited to be the competent authority for the various public transports
24 PSC Template - Summary 24 Based on need to develop best practice model to consolidate experience and lessons learned Development of PSC template for rail and bus sectors: applicable for bus, trolleybus, tram, light rail, metro and possibly cable car and lift transport Fully compliant with EC Reg No 1370/2007 Contract with Arup UK from 2014 for PSC template and up to 10 specific PSCs (currently Sisak, Croatia) Final PSC template mid-2016 with guidelines for implementation
25 PSC Template - Summary 25 PSC template based on best practice review from PSCs developed under EBRD funding, eg Romania, Almaty.. International best practice (i) TfL s quality incentive contracts; (ii) Dublin s PSCs; (iii) Scotland Clyde Hebrides Ferry Services; (iv) Malaga Metro Applicable for gross cost and net cost contracts

30 Leasing model for urban transport* 30 Export Credit Agency Possible support through bus supplier s home country Payment upon delivery of buses /and other commercial banks Bus Supplier Loans Repayment of bus financing Bus supply Urban Transport Regulator Monitors operator compliance with quality and safety standards Owner Municipality/ Government Bus Hold Co Lease contract Bus provision Lease Repayment (quarterly) Bus maintenance carried out by Operator and Bus Supplier Routine and Heavy Maintenance Operational Concession Contract Support payments as needed to Operator to supplement passenger revenues; Operator reports all O&M costs to Govt./Regulator Private Operator(s) Fare revenue Passengers *This structure is adapted from HSBC s Graham Smith, and other similar structures found in Western Europe (e.g., France, UK) and US. 30
31 Preliminary proposal 31 New Buses could be wholly owned by new Holding Company created by the public sector (e.g., municipality) New buses should operated by private sector operator(s) to achieve direct efficiency and management focus Private sector operator to lease buses from new Bus Hold Co Bus Hold Co is asset holder and takes financing from EBRD (and other banks depending on size and financing sources like Export Credit Agency [ECA] financing) Bus Hold Co provides buses to operator by virtue of a concession contract, and in exchange has first rights over a portion of operators income sufficient to make loan repayment to EBRD Tariffs to be regulated but set to strike optimal balance between maximising ridership and maximising revenues i.e., a commercial focus coupled with environmental/congestion focus Operator receives and collects revenues from passengers and any government support payments (subsidies) Lease payments made to Bus Hold Co quarterly, matching loan repayments to EBRD/banks Maintenance of buses is joint responsibility of operator and bus supplier Heavy engine maintenance to be done at bus supplier s facilities 31
32 Preliminary proposed financing structure: cash waterfall 32 Govt Support/Subsidy Passenger Fares /and other commercial banks All O&M costs 1) Contractual obligation to cover loan repayment 2) O&M cost Ticketing System Electronic Fare Box Operator(s) Lease 3) Lease payments Bus Hold Co 4) Any remaining funds (net profit) Operator A Operator B Operat or... Operator *This structure is adapted from HSBC s Graham Smith, and other similar structures found in Western Europe (e.g., France, UK) and US. 32
33 Key Risks: Initial Assessment 33 This type of structure includes the following risks: 1) Operational risk for private sector 2) Regulatory risk for Regulator to ensure that performance standards are complied with 3) Payment/accounting risk related to accuracy of flow of cash from passengers through operator s ticketing system 4) Bus fleet maintenance risk for operator and supplier 5) Demand risk placed with public sector given regulated tariff and heavy modal competition on streets Mitigants: 1) Must select seasoned operator preferably a mix of international and national operators as consortium/jv 2) Capacity building of Regulator a must 3) Preparation/implementation of robust ticketing system a must 4) Concession contract must include detailed regular inspection s regime of fleets with real penalties for poor maintenance performance 5) Acceptable risk allocation as operator will have incentive to maximise operational cost efficiency with prospect of retaining any net profits 33
