| description |
Given Sub-Saharan Africa's enormous
resource needs for growth, poverty reduction, and other
Millennium Development Goals, the development community has
little choice but to continue to explore new sources of
financing, innovative private-to-private sector solutions,
and public-private partnerships to mobilize additional
international financing. The paper suggests several new
instruments for improving access to capital. An analysis of
country creditworthiness suggests that many countries in the
region may be more creditworthy than previously believed.
Establishing sovereign rating benchmarks and credit
enhancement through guarantee instruments provided by
multilateral aid agencies would facilitate market access.
Creative financial structuring, such as the International
Financing Facility for Immunization, would help front-load
aid commitments, although these may not result in additional
financing in the long run. Preliminary estimates suggest
that Sub-Saharan African countries can potentially raise USD
1-3 billion by reducing the cost of international migrant
remittances, USD 5-10 billion by issuing diaspora bonds, and
USD 17 billion by securitizing future remittances and other
future receivables. African countries that have recently
received debt relief however need to be cautious when
resorting to market-based borrowing. |
