Foreword

Head of Infrastructure Intelligence KPMG in the UK

KPMG is delighted to introduce the Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor. This first edition focuses on developments in the European transport infrastructure market. The report is intended to provide a basis for a more informed debate on the relative attractiveness of different markets across the region. Existing publications tend to focus either on the short term, identifying opportunities that are about to come to the market, or the long term, estimating the size of the required investment over decades to come. The Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor is positioned between the two and it presents a medium-term view of the market. We believe that the baseline forecasts of future transport infrastructure markets present a step change in the information available. Our estimates are directly comparable across the 30 countries covered. They build on reliable data sources and a small number of assumptions that are fully explicit.

The Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor also uses KPMG member firms’ experience in each of the markets to consider the baseline forecasts in context. Transport infrastructure markets will continue to develop and KPMG’s Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor will evolve with them. We will revisit our forecasts and our forecasting method in the future as well as explore other sectors and geographies.

Key insights: reflections on baseline forecasts

Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor1 presents the results of econometric modeling and discusses them in a wider context. The first edition of the trend monitor focuses on the medium-term view of transport infrastructure investment2 in 30 European countries. The fundamental aim of the report is to be an enabler of a more informed debate on the medium-term opportunities across the continent. 1 2

KPMG’s Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor has been produced in collaboration with Dr Stephen Gruneberg. By transport infrastructure we mean buildings and structures used in roads, rail, ports and airports. And by investment we mean spending on new build as well as repairs and maintenance.


4 Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor

Comparing transport infrastructure markets across countries is not straightforward. The data to do so does not exist. It must be produced by econometric modeling. Our method is explained in the last section of this report. The underlying dataset we used was produced by Eurostat.3 We believe it to be the most reliable and uniform of the datasets currently available.4 The cleaned historical data and detailed baseline forecasts are included as Appendix 1. The following chart highlights key insights from the combination of our modeling and local intelligence. There are four key categories that emerge:

Star

Tigers

Large and mature

Small and mature

Based solely on our model we estimate there is no market that is both large and forecast to have rapid medium-term growth. Such a market would classify as a Star.

Our model shows six countries are estimated to grow relatively fast from 2008 to 2012. We have labeled Bulgaria, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania and Romania as Tigers. These markets grow out of a base that is very small in comparison to the Large and mature markets.

Based solely on our model, there are five countries that are large but are predicted to grow relatively slowly. We have classified France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK as Large and mature markets. These markets are forecast to represent 67 percent of transport infrastructure investment between 2008 and 2012 in all the markets examined.

The remaining countries we looked at were named Small and mature markets. They are both small and predicted to have slow growth rates in the five years leading to 2012.

However, when KPMG member firms’ local intelligence is taken into account along with our modeling Spain emerges as a Star market.

When our model is combined with KPMG member firms’ local intelligence, Ireland, Poland, Portugal and Slovakia emerge as Tiger markets.

At first glance these results appear to be conforming to conventional wisdom. The value of the trend monitor to the players in the global infrastructure market will be in the foundation it provides for comparing and debating the attractiveness of different transport markets in the medium-term. We believe that we have successfully improved the method for producing estimates of this nature. We have every reason to expect that this will make our forecasts more accurate. Nevertheless, they will always remain just that: estimates.

These range from political stability to the existence of appropriate legal and regulatory frameworks. We have, therefore, employed our member firms’ presence in each of the 30 markets to offer a brief assessment of the forecasts. This is illustrated in the ‘A Local Touch’ section. Overall we expect our estimates to prove conservative. The intelligence on the ground suggests that some countries supported by European Union funds plan to invest considerably more in transport infrastructure over the next five years than our model has predicted.

Local insights We do not think that our forecasts alone can determine the attractiveness of a particular market. Our modeling relies on past trends to predict the future and will always fail to spot sudden shifts and/or shocks in the market. There are a number of factors that could contribute to such changes.

This was because we felt that they could not easily be made comparable across countries and/or they could be influenced by the political processes.


Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor 5

Introduction: investing in European transport infrastructure This edition of KPMG’s Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor is the first in a new series of reports looking at global infrastructure markets. The aim of the series is to facilitate a more sophisticated debate on the medium-term opportunities in the global marketplace. We discuss the transport infrastructure markets in 30 European countries. In particular, the focus is on evolving investment patterns over the five years from 2008 to 2012. Estimated future size and forecast growth rates provide a baseline against which future opportunities can be discussed. We have a view of the prospects in the markets through our member firms’ presence in each country. This intelligence is vital in placing the baseline forecasts in appropriate context.

The forecasts presented are based on historical Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) data harmonized by Eurostat. We felt that this was the most reliable and comparable dataset available. The results should, nevertheless, be read with caution as this type of prediction is subject to considerable uncertainty. The past is not always a reliable indicator of the future. We have aspired to be transparent both in the method we have used and the assumptions we have made. These are detailed on the last pages of this report. The modeling results are included as Appendix 1.

Present and future: market size and rate of growth The patterns that emerge from the econometric modeling are extremely informative. Figure 1 below shows the actual size of markets in 2006. As there is a delay in the preparation of national accounts data, these are the most up to date and reliable. All figures in this report are in 2005 prices in order to facilitate comparisons. Rather than absolute size, it is the relative size of the markets that is of most interest in comparing countries. Figure 1. Expenditure on transport infrastructure in 2006 (in â‚Ź millions)

France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK were by far the largest markets by expenditure in 2006.

Figure 2 indicates that the five major markets identified in Figure 1 all have forecast average annual growth rates5 over five years that are below four percent. Germany spent the most on transport infrastructure in 2006 but has the lowest forecast growth rate of the countries analyzed. Figure 2 also brings into sharp focus the six countries that are predicted, on average, to grow over five percent per annum. These countries, however, all have relatively small markets.

Based on the two variables illustrated in figures 1 and 2 we may classify the transport infrastructure markets into four categories. Figure 3 delineates Small and mature, Large and mature, Tiger and Star markets. This modeling output is not the final classification of these markets. In the next section we use this as a baseline to assess the future in a more qualitative manner.

All growth rates are in real terms (i.e. inflation is excluded) in order to facilitate comparisons.

Bulgaria, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania and Romania are countries that have the highest forecast average growth rates but relatively low expenditures in 2006. These countries are classified as Tigers. Notably, when considered in isolation, the modeling outputs indicate that there are no Stars with both high forecast growth rates and high actual expenditures.

The remaining countries are Small and mature markets. These have low forecast growth and with low 2006 transport infrastructure investment. Experience suggests that as countries become more developed the growth in infrastructure investment tends to slow but the classification of some of these countries as mature may actually mean that they are yet to go through a major period of significant expansion in transport infrastructure. Greece appears the most interesting in this group of countries – see Figure 4.

10 Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor

A local touch In this section we combine KPMG member firms’ local insight with our econometric modeling with the aim of providing a fuller picture of investment in European transport infrastructure. In doing so we are able to reveal who we believe the top performers will be. In introducing information on what KPMG firms’ professionals see on the ground we rely more on judgement and less on hard and measurable indicators. Ireland illustrates this point extremely well. The country has had an expanding economy for the past decade but due to years of underinvestment in tougher economic times prior to that, its infrastructure had struggled to keep pace with the growing economy. This has gradually been turning around with a strong Government commitment to infrastructure delivery. The National Development Plan covering the period from 2000 to 2006 included significant expenditures on transport infrastructure. Ireland now has a National Development Plan from 2007 to 2013 in place. This plan includes expenditure on transport that is in the tens of billions of euros. The program of transport expenditure to 2016 has actually already been approved. Our baseline forecast for Ireland is very different from the above intelligence. This is because our model draws on historic long-term expenditure patterns in making predictions for the future. The key limitation of the model is indeed that it is unable to anticipate the type of change in investment pattern that has occurred in Ireland. Our model, however, remains a useful foundation from which to have discussions. It produces information which facilitates like-for-like comparisons across countries. The second column in Table 1 opposite, for example, very

quickly provides a clear indication of the relative size of any two transport infrastructure markets. We have opted not to capture future expenditure plans for each country. This is because of the challenge of making these numbers directly comparable. They are expressed in different currencies at different times and they often apply to different parts of the transport market. Some plans may also be influenced by the political process and the commitment to implementing them may vary. We have instead focused on assessing how the situation in each country interplays with our baseline estimates and other countries that are forecast to have similar prospects. Table 1 captures what we believe are the key considerations to make when debating the state of play in different markets in the light of our forecasts. The second column in Table 1 contains the estimated spending (2008-2012) as a ratio to the average spending for all 30 countries. The average predicted expenditure is â‚Ź10,396 million. The third column presents the same ratio for forecast growth. The average predicted growth is 3.27 percent per annum. The merit of the table is that it seeks to provide a quick assessment of the relative medium-term prospects in each market. The other columns are self-explanatory.

What KPMG member firms see on the ground suggests that our estimates included as Appendix 1 are conservative for most countries. In other words, actual expenditures are anticipated to be higher than we have predicted. The most likely explanation for this is that the assumption that transport infrastructure investment is equivalent to 4.24 percent of GFCF is not appropriate for all 30 countries.

This assumption is derived from the UK data which is the most detailed available and as such allows assumptions to be made. A country has been moved to a new category (Figure 7) if it was felt to have been initially (Figure 3) in the wrong peer group. Consequently, we moved Ireland, Poland, Portugal and Slovakia into the Tiger category.

Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor 13

Concluding thoughts The Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor is intended to allow infrastructure investment to be directly compared across geographies. This, our first edition, has looked into the medium-term future of European transport between 2008 to 2012. Taken alone, we believe our baseline forecasts present a step change in the quality of information available. Yet the true value can be more readily realized when combined with our member firms’ local insight. This provides the fuller picture of anticipated transport infrastructure investment in Europe and reveals which countries we believe the true performers will be: • Spain to emerge as a Star market • The Tigers: Bulgaria, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia and Romania • The five Large and mature markets of France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK to make up 67 percent of all transport infrastructure investment from 2008-2012. We hope you find this publication provides you with valuable insight into investment in European transport infrastructure.

14 Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor

Behind the scenes: What we did and why


Global Infrastructure: Trend Monitor 15

Our model uses Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) data from Eurostat6 as the base information. We believed that, for our purposes, this data was the most consistent and comparable across the markets. Harmonizing and using other types of data would have called for a considerably larger number of judgements to be made. Declared future expenditure plans, for example, are announced at different times and in different currencies while potentially influenced by an election cycle. Future infrastructure investments are often forecast using Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as a reference point. Annual changes in GFCF tend not to be the same as those in GDP. Infrastructure investment often tracks GFCF more closely. It is for this reason that we have chosen to use GFCF as a basis for our estimate. We have assumed that transport infrastructure investment can be approximated at 4.24 percent of GFCF. Figure 8 shows the underlying components of the assumption.

GFCF, however, only includes new build. It does not include repair and maintenance. Reading Figure 8 from right to left, construction output breaks down into new-build construction as well as repair and maintenance. Some of this is repair and maintenance of existing infrastructure while the remainder is that of housing and commercial buildings. Using the UK Construction Statistics Annual we know that repair and maintenance is 46 percent of all construction output. Transport infrastructure is not the only form of infrastructure – see the centre of Figure 8. Again, the UK Construction Statistics Annual tells us that in the UK, roads, rail, airports and ports represent 56 percent of all infrastructure output.7 This percentage has been relatively stable over the long term.

We believe that UK National Accounts and the UK Construction Statistics Annual provide the most transparent and detailed information on the break down of transport infrastructure expenditure. We have consequently built the assumption that transport infrastructure can be estimated at 4.24 percent of GFCF. The assumption is based on the following: • New-build infrastructure is 4.08 percent of GFCF, • All infrastructure (including repair and maintenance) is 1.858 times newbuild infrastructure, and • Transport infrastructure is 56 percent of all infrastructure. These assumptions were applied to each European country to produce infrastructure investment data for years 1995 to 2006. The forecasts for 2007 to 2012 were produced based on straightline regression of each market from 1995 to 2006. The data produced by our model is included in Appendix 1.

Such data was not available when we started. We used an econometric model to approximate past transport infrastructure investments (1995-2006) and to build predictive scenarios of future expenditures (2007-2012). Our model allowed us to generate baseline forecasts for each country that are grounded in hard evidence and influenced by as little judgement as possible. We have been explicit about judgements where we have made them.

Reading Figure 8 from left to right, GFCF breaks down into plant and equipment as well as new-build construction. All new-build construction falls either under housing, infrastructure or commercial building. UK National Accounts indicate that from 1998 to 2005 total infrastructure output (both transport and other infrastructure) in the UK was equivalent to 4.08 percent of GFCF.

Note: The figures for years 1996 to 2006 are actual expenditures. We assumed that transport infrastructure investment can be approximated by taking 4.24 percent of Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) in each of the 30 countries. The figures for years 2007 to 2012 are baseline forecast that build on hard evidence of the past. We produced the estimates by taking a straight-line regression of each of the markets from 1995 to 2006. The only exception is Romania for which data from 1995 to 1998 was unavailable. All figures are in 2005 prices to facilitate like-for-like comparisons.
