CONFERENCE PREVIEW

W

elcome to the 3rd G20 Africa Infrastructure Investment Conference.

The Corporate Africa G20 Africa Infrastructure Investment Conference during 17 to 19 July 2013 is the third of its kind organised by Times Publications since 2009. This event will show international experts, ranging from government ministers to Chief Executives of companies, speaking with authority about all aspects of investment needed to build infrastructure in Africa. All of the chosen speakers at the event were selected and invited to represent a cross section of economic development partners from a variety of countries to represent the diversity of the continent and its infrastructure interests and needs. While focus here is on the general issue of investment to build infrastructure, underlying this forum is the issue of how development brought about through partnerships between investors from G20 and African nations can have a vital impact upon the lives of people living across the continent. In many parts of the world, the primary infrastructure that is a standard in developed nations is lacking in Africa. The effect that this has on education, health, and employment is detrimental, and has an arresting impact on markets, trade and economic growth. Whether the infrastructure in question is basic water sanitation, highway construction, transport networks, or public utilities, a need so visibly exists, and offers abundant opportunities to investors to enter and exploit for their own benefit, and that of the communities and countries. The strong and sustained economic growth that has been experienced by most African countries during the last decade is evidence which testify that good and sustainable investments and partnerships between African nations and international investors can make a significant difference – Africa nations are currently the fastest growing economies in the world.

4 | G20 Africa Infrastructure Investment Conference

Reflecting this, the G20 Infrastructure Investment Conference is a veritable international event, with representation from Africa and G20 nations in attendance. Presentations will be made by key decision makers, including government ministers, CEOs and directors. The model that the G20 Africa Infrastructure Investment Conference agenda will promote includes an ambitious, farreaching project that is financed by a mix of public and private investment representation, integrally incorporating the regions of Africa, international development agencies and the private sector, as well as the African development Bank, now resident in Tunisia. Besides the physical implementation of infrastructure projects, focus is also upon regulatory authorities and their endeavors to increase trade and job opportunities by removing barriers to intra-country trade, improving trade links to ports, and reducing bureaucracy and transit times at borders. Only with regional integration and multilateral co-operation are these processes achieved, and only through dialogue can the realization of improved cross-border intra-Africa trade and the critical mass needed to accelerate growth and development be accomplished. For those in attendance at this conference, creating increased investment in Africa is a common goal, and the seemingly insurmountable obstacles to this aim are feasibly overcome with diligence, commitment and good networking. Included in this conference brochure are the articles of the key sponsors and a directory of attendants. Beyond the conference Times Publications aims to strengthen relationships and networks formed during the event by reporting on the growth of infrastructure in Africa, and developments issues that have come about as a result of this 2013 conference. Times Publications is already looking forward to a successful follow-up event in 2015.

Fernando Pimentel, Brazil’s Minister for Development, Industry and External Markets, writes exclusively for Corporate Africa on the special relationship between Brazil and the African continent, and outlines his plans for stronger development in the future.

Built upon Shared Foundations H

ow does Brazil see Africa? On the world map we find one another face to face on each side of the Atlantic Ocean. Brazil doesn’t look at Africa from a top-down perspective, but rather as an equal nation with excellent potential. This relation based on mutual respect is not only due to geography. Brazil has a special relationship with Africa because, of all the countries in the Americas, Brazil has the highest population of Africans. We are equal, and we see each other this way. This perception makes a huge difference to relations between Brazil and Africa and is the reason why we, Brazilians, feel at home when we are in Africa. We are the same people, and share part of the same history. Brazil was a colony for 300 years and Brazil knows what it means to be a colony. Africa became independent and has been rebuilding its own history ever since. Due to an earlier start in its independence process, a different economic history and its current socioeconomic conditions, Brazil has the means to offer quality goods, services, and technology to African countries, not as mere consumers, but as a partnership between two nations in search of developmentandthereductionofinequalities.

The ideal scenario

For us, ideal international trade does not mean a country having permanent strong surpluses to the detriment of other nations. This is not what Brazil seeks in its relation with strategic partners, including Africa. Brazil favors growing trade flows that

translate into the balanced and equal global market. This is the path for everyone’s prosperity and shared economic growth. In diplomacy, we do not use the language of domination or submission, but one of cooperation and mutual growth. This has oriented Brazilian relations with its partners across the Atlantic. Thanks to a strategy devised by former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in 2003, Brazil began a historical strengthening of ties based primarily on trade. It is important to note that this policy is being continued during the government of President Dilma Rousseff. A decade ago, trade transactions between Brazil and Africa totaled US$ 6.1 billion. Trade flows have since increased by 434 per cent, reaching up to US$ 26.4 billion. In ten years, Brazilian exports to Africa increased from US$ 2.9 billion to US$ 12.2 billion and imports went up from US$ 3.3 billion to US$ 14.3 billion. Brazilian exports to Africa rely on export financing mechanisms that enable operations in the region. Since 2004, disbursements for 130 operations leveraged exports worth US$ 8.4 billion. Beyond trade, a comprehensive agenda in cooperation has been implemented in areas such as agriculture, health, education, professional retraining, culture, and justice. Major Brazilian international cooperation disbursements have been directed to the African continent.

Brazil’s presence in Africa will deliver a legacy of technology transfer, labor capacity building projects and social programs. Our presence in Africa will deliver a legacy of technology transfer, labor capacity building projects and social programs. According to a study from the World Bank and the Brazilian Institute of Applied Economics Research, almost 60 per cent of Brazilian international cooperation resources were spent in African countries in 2010. SouthSouth Cooperation projects alone cover 780 activities in African countries, some finalized and some currently being implemented.

Brazil’s presence in African development Since I took office in the Ministry in 2011 I have taken part in and/or led six Brazilian missions to Africa. In Brasília, I have hosted eight delegations from African countries. This intense agenda can also be perceived from the perspective of Brazilian companies in the continent, which can be illustrated by Petrobras’s activities in seven

A Farmer in Brazil

African countries, totaling investments of US$ 2.4 billion between 2008 and 2012. Vale also has a billionaire portfolio of approved investments in Africa, with particular focus on the Moatize coal mining complex, the biggest foreign direct investment project in Mozambique. It comprises investments in infrastructure that created a logistics corridor between the coal mines and the Nacala port. Weg, an electric engine manufacturer, has been operating in South Africa since 1980, where it employs around 600 workers. In Angola, there is a strong Brazilian presence in the economy, particularly in sectors such as construction, mining, and energy. Nonetheless, this increase in trade and in credit supply for infrastructure and technology cooperation is only a part of Brazil’s developing relationship with Africa, the goal of which is to integrate our economies in to global production chains.

Global trade

No country completely controls the whole chain of its industrial production. It is possible, and examples testify to it, that a country can be competitive in mining but not competitive in steel production. Or, it can be competitive in

producing steel without owning major iron ore reserves. China’s steel prices are the most competitive worldwide and the iron used in the production is imported from Brazil or Australia. Nowadays, the world economy is made of production chains distributed according to opportunities, to competitiveness niches and to the natural advantages of each country. Brazil needs to raise its participation in these global production chains. Our economy is already, in many ways, integrated. While Africa starts its industrialization process, some nations are at a more advanced stage. The continent must face the challenge of building an industry focused on the 21st century. What can Brazil do, from a position of development? To support each African country to raise the conditions needed to integrate its economy in to global production chains, building an environment of prosperity and social stability. And we shall do it in partnership with Brazilian companies. Regarding the relations between Brazil and Africa and Africa’s role in shaping modern Brazil, the friendship ties and

The friendship ties between Brazil and Africa, and the mutual respect indicate a role for our country on the African continent. the mutual respect indicate a role for our country on the African continent: to support the construction of a better world for future generations of Brazilians and Africans.

The City promises to be one of the most outstanding legacies of the Centenary. The Centenary City is a new “Smart City’’ to be built from scratch on more than 1,000 hectares of virgin land in Abuja making it the second but largest “private city’’development in history, after Songdo International Business District in South Korea. The land for the Centenary City shall be acquired in accordance with the FCT Land Swap Agreement. The Centenary City is being designed by a reputable world class design team as a contemporary efficient “mixed-use’’ city with emphasis on modernity and Nigeria’s unique cultural heritage. The aim is to synchronise the demands of today’s society and the expectations of tomorrow and materialise the vision into working scheme that allow for the City to develop in a sustainable ecological and socially responsive manner. The City will demonstrate the harmony between nature and the work of man to create a solid example for the future of urban development in Nigeria and indeed the world and also reinforce our collective destiny towards the next one

hundred years. The City, like Dubai, Monaco, Shenzhen and Songodo, shall signpost the Nigeria of the future. The City shall promote leisure, tourism, commerce, sports and will have a 20% resident component. The City is also conceived as a centre for the preservation of Nigeria’s political history and documentation of her contributions to the political, cultural and economic development and the advancement of peace and security in the world, as well as the hub of economic activities. The goal is to create a new City, a modern urban centrality for the sustainable development of this wonder land, where natural beauty and architecture icons must merge together to create an environment that is alive and productive. The City will re-introduce Abuja to the world with the following features: A green city with a natural buffer enveloping the entire city, and encircling the central neighbourhood that protects and nurtures the whole world-class public facilities. Zero waste management The city will aim at reducing waste to zero. Domestic waste will be used to create nutrient-rich soil, fertilizer and incinerated as an additional power source. Other wastes such as plastics and metals will be recycled or re-proposed for the other uses. A central bank that provides the greenspirit which gives orientation, clarity and iconic power to the city as a whole but most powerfully to the city centre and the business communities inside its borders.

The Centenary City is a new “Smart City’’ to be built from scratch on more than 1,000 hectares of virgin land in Abuja making it the second but largest “private city’’ development in history, after Songdo International Business District in South Korea. Flexibletopographies that are conceptually related to one another so that they can be placed together to create a rich, elegant, textured and vibrant City. An urban grid super-block system that is modular and organic yielding a resulting grid of arteries, streets and pathways with and efficient traffic system where pedestrians, bicycles, motorcars, trams and monorail can co-exist in a friendly human way. Independent power source With a gas-fired 500MW power plant connected directly to a gas terminal, providing constant power supply to the City.

This requires Africans to position themselves, possess the necessary skills for and take the lead in the development, procurement, financing and implementation of infrastructure projects. The delivery of infrastructure projects in the context of social environment in Africa is not an easy task. It requires an appreciation of – •

• • •

the mechanisms through which governments are able to transparently and efficiently mobilise private sector funds, resources and expertise, in the delivery of public sector mandates; the significance of responsible governance, best practice standards of corporate governance; global recognition of African initiatives and; general prosperity for Africa.

It is this realization that led to the positioning of Ledwaba Mazwai as one of the leading dynamic law firms in South Africa to provide legal services in infrastructure projects and become associated with some of the biggest and internationally acclaimed infrastructure projects in recent years including the Gautrain Rapid Rail Project.

Infrastructure development is the bedrock of social prosperity, according to José Filomeno de Sousa dos Santos, Chairman, FSDEA.fund)

ROCKY ROAD TO

PROSPERITY T

he eyes of the world have been on Africa throughout the last decade, as more and more investors and businesses target their investment activities at countries in the region. In 2013 alone, numerous companies entered Africa to exploit what many commentators describe as an ‘oil bonanza’. Looking at a map of Africa is akin to looking at a who’s-who of oil companies. Gabon is playing host to Addax Petroleum, Total, and Perenco, a leading oil and gas exploration company. Angola and Nigeria are oil and gas economies. Angola, specifically, hosts several oil companies which include Sonangol, TOTAL E&P Angola, Chevron and Esso. These companies will soon be supported by the completion of Africa’s strongest crane, which will have a capacity to lift 2,500 metric tons. Angola’s oil accounts for 2.6 per cent of US imports and 12 per cent of China’s. These are boom-times for Africa, whose economies are projected to grow by 4.5 per cent in 2013 and accelerate to 5.3 per cent in 2014, according to a new report by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Between 2000 and 2010, Angola grew faster than any other country.Three African nations, Algeria, Angola and Libya appear in the Mundi Index top 20 biggest oil producing nations, ahead of Qatar and the United Kingdom. Multilateral debt relief to countries in Sub Saharan Africa provide much breathing space and puts them on a level pegging with other developing nations. These factors, tied in with Africa’s growing population, suggest that investors have everything to gain by investing in Africa.

Sustainable investment is required Striking growth figures and vast oil projections ignore a different kind of reality on the ground. More importantly they ignore a worrying fragility to the current economic progress. An unplanned expansion of population leads to greater hunger, poverty and inequality, according to the OECD report produced in conjunction with the African Development Bank. The report issues a stark warning that, “growth has been accompanied by insufficient poverty reduction, persisting unemployment, increased income inequalities and in some countries, deteriorating levels of health and education”. Reports such as these suggest that non-oil investment opportunities offer a far more sustainable future for Africa. The deficit of infrastructure in the region is an obstacle to achieving the diverse economy that Africa needs. Urgent action is required by investors and governments, and collaboration to develop key infrastructure needed to help Africa realize its potential. This urgency is exacerbated by the number of young people in the region. Demographics show that the average age in Africa is 18 years. Forty per cent of Africans are younger than 14. The fate of the region lies in the hands of this young population. The question is how can nations with developing democracies, war legacies and decades of political instability rise to the challenge of sustaining their current economic growth? The key to preserving Africa’s wealth for future generations is to build a diverse economy. Unlocking human potential now and in years to come means building an

ecosystem that supports enterprise and promotes hard work. Before any of that can happen, however, basic infrastructure must be developed throughout the continent. Moody’s announced in May 2013 that Sub Saharan Africa needs at least US$90bn of spending on basic infrastructure development citing, ‘underinvestment in infrastructure, with energy, water system and sanitation networks requiring the most funding’. The lack of investment in infrastructure has a direct impact on the GDP performance of sub Saharan African countries. Moody’s estimates that per capita GDP growth drops by 1 per cent and annual productivity by 40 per cent for each year that the region misses the requisite infrastructure investment. Without infrastructure people cannot bathe, drink clean water, or drive to work. Without these most basic of services a nation will not be able to properly equip its people with the education and skills needed to compete on the world stage. Sanitation and access to healthcare facilities will save lives and improve the quality of life for millions. Public transport will usher in an era of mobility, opening up communities, linking towns to cities and giving millions of

people new education and job opportunities. An educated, working population enables a country to thrive. Education to produce diversity Adequate education is vital in nurturing human development and innovation. Innovative thinking is necessary in delivering the economic diversity that is crucial as the global market becomes so competitive. In particular, the global goods and services market is fiercely competitive and is essential in driving forward economic growth. Whilst sub Saharan Africa is currently rich in natural resources, the reality is that each nation’s GDP rises and falls with the tide of global commodity prices. This leaves those who are dependent on natural resources highly vulnerable. Meanwhile, countries in the Middle East, particularly the Gulf region, are investing heavily in education and infrastructure. The fascinating thing about infrastructure is the enormous impact it has on social development. Angola is a country that needs infrastructure urgently. Its 27-year civil war ended in 2002 and destroyed most essential services throughout the nation. The Angolan government is taking advantage of the economic boom by rebuilding what was destroyed in the war but this is a monumental challenge. Houses must be built; roads re-laid to provide access to work; food, water and other essentials are in high demand. Angola is picking up the pieces of a crisis that left around 15 million landmines across the country and an average life expectancy of less than 40 years old.

parts of the country that suffer from water isolation. In the country’s capital city, Luanda, education has become a major priority with new schools and universities being built and thousands of new teachers being trained. The significant and lasting impact that infrastructure can have on the lives of citizens is exemplified by the rebuilding of the Cunene River Bridge in Angola, which was destroyed during the civilwar. Itisastrategicallyimportant bridge, linking the main cities of Lubango and Ondjiva. Prior to its reconstruction, travel between these cities was nearly impossible. After the bridge was destroyed citizens built a number of temporary, dangerous structures. Today, a 900 meter long, four lane highway stretches across the river. The new bridge has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of Angolans. Such a measure not only increases the scope of opportunity for education and employment but it has a significantimpactoncommunitiesandfamilies. The new bridge stands as a source of pride and achievement for Angolan nationals in the region. It also makes transporting goods and services possible for small businesses that were previously unable to reach across the river. The Cunene River Bridge in Angola stands as testament to what can be achieved when government and private organization work together to address the basic needs of ordinary citizens.

Opportunities and the FSDEA This critical need for infrastructure provides investors with an enormous opportunity. In Angola the government’s drive towards re-building the country is now supported by the Fundo Soberano de Angola (FSDEA), a US$5bn sovereign wealth fund that has been set up to promote Angola’s social and economic development and to achieve long-term sustainable returns that will benefit the people of Angola.

Investing in hospitality One component of the FSDEA strategy is to support the government’s aims of promoting social development, economic diversity and innovation. One such social initiative in Angola is the development of a new ‘Hotel School’, which will provide a wide range of training and employment opportunities for Angolans wishing to work in the country’s burgeoning hospitality sector. There is already strong demand for well-trained employees in the sector. It is projects like these that must be replicated across the whole of sub Saharan Africa if countries wish to enjoy sustainable growth and stable economies.

Ordinary working people in Angola are now seeing investment in public works and social development. Taps with access to running water have been installed in isolated

The funding piece of the jigsaw is, as always, a major problem. A report in the Financial Times in June 2013 suggests that in order to meet development targets,

Whilst Sub Saharan Africa is currently rich in natural resources, the reality is that each nation’s GDP rises and falls with the tide of global commodity prices. the region needs infrastructure financing of US$93bn every year until 2020. The African Development Bank (AfDB) is launching a multi-billion dollar infrastructure fund, which will raise equity before issuing debt in the form of bonds. The fund is already backed by Nigeria, Mauritius and South Africa – and the AfDB has identified a pipeline of 176 projects worth in excess of US$144bn across the key infrastructure sectors of energy, transport, ICT and water. This new financial injection will provide significant help to the nation building that is now taking place across the region. The people and economies of sub Saharan Africa – as well as those who invest in it will for the first time reap the rewards of a healthy, diverse and sustainable economy. These are very complex times for Africa. Whilst on paper the solutions may seem clear, the context makes development very difficult. A third of African countries continue to suffer from conflict, a reality that blights the landscape for nations that have found peace and stability. This provides a noisy backdrop to an already difficult situation for many nations. Progress has been made in many ways, perhaps most of all in an understanding within the minds of governmentsthatstable,growingeconomies rely on communities and a cohesive society. Countries in Sub Saharan Africa are beginning to understand that the unlocking of human potential is the true key to economic success. Without infrastructure there is no mobility, security, health, education or potential for humandevelopment.AllAfricannationsneed to understand that these are the very basic tenets of a growing, sustainable economy – tenets that all societies need to embrace if they wish to provide opportunities for all of their citizens.
