Moderator: The next word will be given to Anna Lvovna Weinberg Allen, President of the Solev international association. State the topic of the report yourself. We still have 5 speakers left, so we will try to finish each 10 minutes before 18:00. We will ask questions during the evening reception.

Weinberg Allen Anna Lvovna: Good afternoon I have been asked to be brief and to focus as much as possible on practical examples. Therefore, I will follow the suggested option. First, however, let me say a few words about what a public-private partnership is and how we understand it. Well, first of all, it must be said that public-private partnership is one of the types of project financing. Project financing differs from conventional investment lending in that the source of repayment is the project itself. And, consequently, increased demands are placed on the quality of project development. You can't unless you really large enterprise, some very large borrowers with whom there are no issues, I don’t know, there is the state, Gazprom and so on, sometimes they just take money without deep study, and then it works out, it doesn’t work out, they sort it out later. In particular, a representative of the Academy of Sciences sadly said that this quite often happens with concessions that are interrupted, not fulfilled, and so on, and so on. The reason for this is the shallow study of the project. Project finance projects and also public-private partnerships involve a very large number of participants. These are often municipal and state entities, these are equipment suppliers, this is a management company, this law firms Those who ensure the preparation of the entire package of documents are banks. As a rule, this is not one bank, but several banks. This is a whole, whole range of participants. As a rule, new technologies are not used here, that is, there is no risk associated with venture projects. On the other hand, it is usually large investments and there is always the danger of exceeding construction deadlines, underfunding, problems with setting up equipment, launching, and so on. That is, such a project requires the deepest study. You have to calculate the effectiveness of the project, you have to calculate all the risks, you have to calculate the currency risks, and only when all this is done can you really go for financing for something that requires very, very great preparation, a lot of attention to project management. This is the first thing I wanted to say. I won't go into detail given the timing. Considering that I have already spoken 3 minutes out of the 10 allotted to me. Therefore, I want to devote the remaining 7 minutes to three specific examples. These are all living examples, they occur in different regions Russian Federation, with various state banks of the Russian Federation. Well, state banks are the first four, say, VEB, Gazprombank, and there are a couple more. Or it happens under the export credit financing scheme. There are three examples, they relate to two areas. This is the area of ​​processing solid household waste. It is no secret that this is one of the most painful points in the Russian Federation. I looked at the map of polygons only for the Moscow region, it is terrifying. And if we look at a region, for example, Dagestan, where the city of Makhachkala is sandwiched by mountains, there is simply no place to make landfills, then there it becomes a national disaster. That is, one such painful point that half of the regions face, including Moscow, and that’s all, is solid household waste. The second is cogeneration. There is also a great need for cogeneration plants. As a rule, they are small, but often it covers the whole area, those projects where we are involved and our friends and partners are involved. That is, these are quite large projects. If PTBO is a small project, if it is carefully packaged, you can expect 80-100 million dollars or euros, then for cogeneration it is somewhere around 300 million euros, 500 million euros. That is, it's quite major projects . It is well known that currently Russian banks do not finance projects exceeding $200 million, as a rule. There are exceptions, but these exceptions are all related to VEB, well, sometimes there may be one of the state banks. The main source of financing is still debt lending; as a rule, it covers from 70 to 80% of the project cost. Thus, the range of sources of this debt lending is very narrow. These are 4 state banks, actually 2, and export credit schemes. When we talk about project financing, the main problem is usually not getting debt financing, it’s finding your own funds. Here the situation is quite the opposite. That is, the main problem is debt lending. Apart from a couple of the largest banks, which, I would not say, are actively involved in these issues, but, in any case, are considering this option, the rest of the schemes are associated with export credit agencies. The most active export credit agency in Russia is the German Hermes and the agency of the countries of Eastern Europe, that is, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovenia, and a couple more. As we know, the main task of export credit agencies is not to solve the problems of the Russian Federation or any other country in which money is invested, it is to support their own equipment manufacturers. If we are talking about projects that are financed through debt lending from Russian banks, for example, VEB, Gazprombank, as an example, then there is no strict link to the equipment manufacturer. If the project is under the export credit agency, then, in any case, the engineering company that will be the general contractor for the project will definitely be, either the engineering company, or sometimes the equipment manufacturer that will provide the turnkey project, will definitely be from that country. whose export credit agency will provide financing. Since we are now faced with the concept of a united Europe, then, as a rule, or rather, there is always no strict requirement that equipment come from only one single European country. It can come from a number of countries, but, nevertheless, the aggregator is, respectively, an engineering company or equipment manufacturer of this country. This equipment manufacturer is also the main lobbyist for its own banks and its own export credit agency, which is already providing credit to the corresponding project, either in the Russian Federation or in Ukraine. Today we are talking specifically about the Russian Federation. As for own funds, there are two sources. One is the regional budget, which sometimes provides 15-20% of the required own funds, or the second is more complex, but also occurs in our practice - this is when the equipment manufacturer itself provides its own funds. As a rule, they are given, for example, 10% can be given as a real investment of own funds (mezzanine loan), 10% as a trade loan, that is, deferred payment. I’m just telling you a medley of real projects. Some of them have already been implemented, some are close to financing, that is, in the coming months. Thus, financing is provided either by the region or by the equipment manufacturer. Why isn't it easy project financing, and public-private partnerships? Where does the state stand? The state is usually represented by regional authorities gives guarantees. These guarantees are different types. The first is when the project is carried out according to the build-own-operate-transfer scheme, that is, build-own-manage-transfer. The state provides a buyback guarantee, a buyback guarantee. That is, say, within 10-12 years the state, in particular the region of the Russian Federation, buys the constructed facility. This applies in both cases and, for example, in the construction of a municipal solid waste treatment plant and in cogeneration schemes. The second scheme, which is, in general, related to the first, is when the state guarantees certain tariffs, guarantees that all payments will go to a special account of a special management company in the bank, which will ensure payment of the debt load on the project. Typically a commitment is made...How many more minutes do I have?

Moderator: That's it. Finish it!

Weinberg Allen Anna Lvovna: Okay, I'll finish then. An obligation is given that these payments will go first. Finally, the third guarantee option is simply a government contract. This is most often used, for example, for a hospital. This is not exactly the topic of today’s conversation, but it also applies in the housing and communal services sector. This is when the state simply gives, say, a budget for a year, but a state contract is signed for 10 years, which the region gives an obligation to pay within 10 years. These are, in fact, the three types of guarantees that are used and applied. They are accepted by Russian banks and accepted by banks affiliated with export credit agencies. There are several specially created companies in Eastern Europe, who specifically work with export credit agencies for this scheme. Well, I probably won’t go into too much detail right now. If anyone has specific questions, please come forward. And I just wanted to end with the following thought. This is not theory, this is practice. This has already begun to happen, and those who have real projects and a real desire to implement them, because this is a colossal amount of work, all the possibilities for this have already been created. It's only up to proactive people and regions. Thank you!

Excerpt characterizing Weinberg, Lev Iosifovich

“Look, I’m breathing again, I’m breathing,” he said to himself.
He himself imagined himself to be of enormous stature, a powerful man who threw cannonballs at the French with both hands.
- Well, Matvevna, mother, don’t give it away! - he said, moving away from the gun, when an alien, unfamiliar voice was heard above his head:
- Captain Tushin! Captain!
Tushin looked around in fear. It was the staff officer who kicked him out of Grunt. He shouted to him in a breathless voice:
- What, are you crazy? You were ordered to retreat twice, and you...
“Well, why did they give me this?...” Tushin thought to himself, looking at the boss with fear.
“I... nothing...” he said, putting two fingers to the visor. - I…
But the colonel did not say everything he wanted. A cannonball flying close caused him to dive and bend over on his horse. He fell silent and was just about to say something else when another core stopped him. He turned his horse and galloped away.
- Retreat! Everyone retreat! – he shouted from afar. The soldiers laughed. A minute later the adjutant arrived with the same order.
It was Prince Andrei. The first thing he saw, riding out into the space occupied by Tushin’s guns, was an unharnessed horse with a broken leg, neighing near the harnessed horses. Blood flowed from her leg like from a key. Between the limbers lay several dead. One cannonball after another flew over him as he approached, and he felt a nervous shiver run down his spine. But the very thought that he was afraid raised him up again. “I cannot be afraid,” he thought and slowly dismounted from his horse between the guns. He conveyed the order and did not leave the battery. He decided that he would remove the guns from the position with him and withdraw them. Together with Tushin, walking over the bodies and under terrible fire from the French, he began cleaning up the guns.
“And then the authorities came just now, so they were tearing up,” the fireworksman said to Prince Andrei, “not like your honor.”
Prince Andrei did not say anything to Tushin. They were both so busy that it seemed they didn’t even see each other. When, having put the surviving two of the four guns on the limbers, they moved down the mountain (one broken cannon and the unicorn were left), Prince Andrei drove up to Tushin.
“Well, goodbye,” said Prince Andrei, extending his hand to Tushin.
“Goodbye, my dear,” said Tushin, “dear soul!” “goodbye, my dear,” said Tushin with tears that, for some unknown reason, suddenly appeared in his eyes.

The wind died down, black clouds hung low over the battlefield, merging on the horizon with gunpowder smoke. It was getting dark, and the glow of fires was all the more clearly visible in two places. The cannonade became weaker, but the crackle of guns behind and to the right was heard even more often and closer. As soon as Tushin with his guns, driving around and running over the wounded, came out from under fire and went down into the ravine, he was met by his superiors and adjutants, including a staff officer and Zherkov, who was sent twice and never reached Tushin’s battery. All of them, interrupting one another, gave and passed on orders on how and where to go, and made reproaches and comments to him. Tushin did not give orders and silently, afraid to speak, because at every word he was ready, without knowing why, to cry, he rode behind on his artillery nag. Although the wounded were ordered to be abandoned, many of them trailed behind the troops and asked to be deployed to the guns. The same dashing infantry officer who jumped out of Tushin’s hut before the battle was, with a bullet in his stomach, placed on Matvevna’s carriage. Under the mountain, a pale hussar cadet, supporting the other with one hand, approached Tushin and asked to sit down.
“Captain, for God’s sake, I’m shell-shocked in the arm,” he said timidly. - For God's sake, I can't go. For God's sake!
It was clear that this cadet had more than once asked to sit somewhere and was refused everywhere. He asked in a hesitant and pitiful voice.
- Order him to be imprisoned, for God's sake.
“Plant, plant,” said Tushin. “Put down your overcoat, uncle,” he turned to his beloved soldier. -Where is the wounded officer?
“They put it in, it’s over,” someone answered.
- Plant it. Sit down, honey, sit down. Lay down your overcoat, Antonov.
The cadet was in Rostov. He held the other with one hand, was pale, and his lower jaw was shaking with feverish trembling. They put him on Matvevna, on the very gun from which they laid the dead officer. There was blood on the overcoat, which stained Rostov's leggings and hands.
- What, are you wounded, darling? - said Tushin, approaching the gun on which Rostov was sitting.
- No, I’m shell-shocked.
- Why is there blood on the bed? – Tushin asked.
“It was the officer, your honor, who bled,” answered the artillery soldier, wiping the blood with the sleeve of his overcoat and as if apologizing for the uncleanness in which the gun was located.
Forcibly, with the help of infantry, they took the guns up the mountain, and having reached the village of Guntersdorf, they stopped. It had already become so dark that ten steps away it was impossible to distinguish the uniforms of the soldiers, and the firefight began to subside. Suddenly, screams and gunfire were heard again close to the right side. The shots were already sparkling in the darkness. This was the last French attack, which was answered by soldiers holed up in the houses of the village. Again everyone rushed out of the village, but Tushin’s guns could not move, and the artillerymen, Tushin and the cadet, silently looked at each other, awaiting their fate. The firefight began to subside, and soldiers, animated by conversation, poured out of the side street.
- Is it okay, Petrov? - one asked.
“Brother, it’s too hot.” Now they won’t interfere,” said another.
- Can't see anything. How they fried it in theirs! Not in sight; darkness, brothers. Would you like to get drunk?
The French were repulsed for the last time. And again, in complete darkness, Tushin’s guns, surrounded as if by a frame by buzzing infantry, moved somewhere forward.
In the darkness, it was as if an invisible, gloomy river was flowing, all in one direction, humming with whispers, talking and the sounds of hooves and wheels. In the general din, behind all the other sounds, the moans and voices of the wounded in the darkness of the night were clearest of all. Their groans seemed to fill all the darkness that surrounded the troops. Their groans and the darkness of this night were one and the same. After a while, there was a commotion in the moving crowd. Someone rode with his retinue on a white horse and said something as they passed. What did you say? Where to now? Stand, or what? Thank you, or what? - greedy questions were heard from all sides, and the entire moving mass began to push on itself (apparently, the front ones had stopped), and rumors spread that they were ordered to stop. Everyone stopped as they were walking, in the middle of the dirt road.
The lights lit up and the conversation became louder. Captain Tushin, having given orders to the company, sent one of the soldiers to look for a dressing station or a doctor for the cadet and sat down by the fire laid out on the road by the soldiers. Rostov also dragged himself to the fire. A feverish trembling from pain, cold and dampness shook his entire body. Sleep was irresistibly beckoning him, but he could not sleep from the excruciating pain in his arm, which ached and could not find a position. He now closed his eyes, now glanced at the fire, which seemed to him hotly red, now at the stooped, weak figure of Tushin, sitting cross-legged next to him. Tushin’s big, kind and intelligent eyes looked at him with sympathy and compassion. He saw that Tushin wanted with all his heart and could not help him.
From all sides the footsteps and chatter of those passing, passing and infantry stationed around were heard. The sounds of voices, footsteps and horse hooves rearranging in the mud, the near and distant crackling of firewood merged into one oscillating roar.
Now, as before, the invisible river no longer flowed in the darkness, but as if after a storm, the gloomy sea lay down and trembled. Rostov mindlessly watched and listened to what was happening in front of him and around him. The infantry soldier walked up to the fire, squatted down, stuck his hands into the fire and turned his face away.
- Is it okay, your honor? - he said, turning questioningly to Tushin. “He got away from the company, your honor; I don’t know where. Trouble!
Together with the soldier, an infantry officer with a bandaged cheek approached the fire and, turning to Tushin, asked him to order the tiny gun to be moved in order to transport the cart. Behind the company commander, two soldiers ran to the fire. They swore and fought desperately, pulling out some kind of boot from each other.
- Why, you picked it up! Look, he’s clever,” one shouted in a hoarse voice.
Then a thin, pale soldier approached with his neck tied with a bloody wrap and in an angry voice demanded water from the artillerymen.
- Well, should I die like a dog? - he said.
Tushin ordered to give him water. Then a cheerful soldier ran up, asking for a light in the infantry.
- A hot fire to the infantry! Stay happily, fellow countrymen, thank you for the light, we will pay you back with interest,” he said, carrying the reddened firebrand somewhere into the darkness.
