USAID’s Approach to Water Finance
Adapted from US experience with Clean Water Act
of 1972
• Grant funding: limited and unsustainable
• Pressing need to mobilize private funding for public
services
• New approach provides for increased security over
direct investment in emerging economies
• New approach uses a combination of grant
funds/technical assistance, and loan guarantees as
security to attract private investors
3
Water Revolving Funds (WRF)
• WRFs offer pooled-financing mechanisms
that can mobilize private sector investment
on commercial terms
• Each WRF will raise capital from local
markets for on-lending to municipal &
private entities for water infrastructure
4
Water Revolving Funds (WRFs)
Supporting Activities:
• Technical assistance in local financial market
development
• Partial loan or bond guarantees
• Intercept agreements on inter-governmental
transfers
• Initial capital funds from donors & reserve
fund support
5
USAID Approach: Using Loan Guarantees
• Over the past 4 years USAID has used partial loan
guarantees to mobilize local capital for investment in a
variety of sectors
• We believe that this approach can work for the provision
of potable water and for waste water treatment
6
What is DCA?
• A financial tool used by USAID to achieve its development
objectives
• Loan Guaranty Authority allowing USAID to issue partial
guarantees to private sector lenders
• Available for all sectors: SME, Microfinance,
Infrastructure, Water, Health, Energy, Environment, etc
• Projects are financially sound and economically viable
• Financial risk is shared with local financial institutions;
lenders typically carry 50% of the risk
