INTRODUCTION
3. The Libyan Housing Infrastructure Board is interested in transitioning from a “Public Housing Board” that
fully funds public housing projects, to a Government Ministry that has more agility related to development
and funding options for housing and infrastructure projects. To accomplish this vision, the HIB seeks a
Strategic Partner who with will work with them to:
• Develop a comprehensive strategic plan that moves the current direction of the Housing &
Infrastructure Board so that it will better meet the needs of communities of Libya and individuals
who live in them.
• Establish the framework to transition from a Public Board into a Government Ministry, including
both regulations and operational procedures building on existing regulations, policies and
processes.
• Leverage the Integrated Macro Management System (IMMS) that was initiated in 2009 to
manage Libya’s development program. IMMS integrates the three levels of management
(macro, sub-macro, micro) across the three phases of the Development (Planning,
Implementing and Monitoring) which will be critical to successfully manage the “Start to Finish”
goals of the Housing & Infrastructure board. Since Libya owns this tool, reimplementation
within this new project should be cost-effective.
P
PROJECT
4. , • IMMS is capable of managing a large volume of projects which enables Key Stakeholders to
utilize data across all projects to make informed decisions which will help with prioritization,
placement of funding, actual project status, benchmarks, project costs, and the ability to
compare cost across variables such as contractors or suppliers.
• To set a direction that will include mechanisms for establishing an investment fund with capabilities
to manage multiple funding schemes.
• Evaluate successful investment funds operating in the United States, Eastern Europe and the
Middle East to glean “best practices.”
• Working with Key HIB Stakeholders determine the financing schemes to be selected for Libya.
• Develop a prospectus that can be presented to foreign investors, both private and
governments.
PROJECT
5. HIB re-establish themselves so they are able to become a Ministry of Affordable Housing and
Infrastructure” (as an example) using multiple funding schemes, including foreign investment to develop
“affordable housing and sustainable communities.” Why Affordable Housing rather than Public
Housing?
• Public Housing has a stigma of serving the underprivileged, unemployable or underemployed.
• While foreign investors are certainly willing to invest in a public housing program that has a “housing
voucher program” or where beneficiaries pay rent from a “welfare payment” that they receive from the
State. However, investors are more likely to invest in a balanced program where some of the home
recipients are employed or otherwise self-reliant.
• An Affordable Housing program allows leeway to venture into a broader scope of housing opportunities
offering housing to a variety of new customers. In the United States, affordable housing is offered to first
time home owners, veterans of military service, physicians practicing in rural areas, anyone with an
income under a specified $ threshold (depending on the location), moving from welfare to work, etc.
Implementing multiple investment schemes offers a unique opportunity to begin totally transparent “socially
and environmentally sustainable” investment funds.
INITIAL PREMISE
6. • Inclusionary Affordable Housing Program requires developers to sell or rent a certain percentage
of units in new developments at a "below market rate" (price) that is affordable to Low-income,
Median-income and Moderate-income Households based on criteria established by the Affordable
Housing Commission. (US Model)
• Affordable Housing Rehabilitation Program allows for the purchase, construction, or rehabilitation
of owner-occupied or rental housing. Funds provided are generally subsidies on interest rates or
other rehabilitation construction loans for owner-occupied loans. (US Model)
• Public – Private Participation is a funding mechanism that allows a pubic agency to leverage public
funds to raise additional funding from private sources. This popular funding scheme is used in many
public sectors including housing, utilities, hospitals, schools, and other state owned industries.
(World-wide Model)
• Build-Own-Transfer is a form of project financing, wherein a private entity receives a concession
from the private or public sector to finance, design, construct, and operate a facility stated in the
concession contract. This enables the public proponent to recover its investment, operating and
maintaining expenses in the project. (Commonly used in countries such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia,
Egypt and US (California, Florida, Indiana, Virginia).
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
FUNDING SCHEMES
7. • Build-Own-Operate-Transfer - A BOOT structure differs from BOT in that the private entity owns the works.
During the concession period the private company owns and operates the facility with the prime goal to recover the
costs of investment and maintenance while trying to achieve higher margin on project. The specific characteristics of
BOOT make it suitable for infrastructure projects like highways, roads mass transit, railway transport and power
generation and as such they have political importance for the social welfare but are not attractive for other types of
private investments
• Build-Own-Operate - In a BOO project ownership of the project remains usually with the project company
and the private company gets the benefits of any residual value of the project. This framework is used when
the physical life of the project coincides with the concession period. A BOO scheme involves large amounts
of finance and long payback period. A common example of a BOO project is a water treatment plant
• Build-Lease-Transfer – BLT is a private entity that builds a complete project and leases it to the
government. On this way the control over the project is transferred from the project owner to a lessee. In
other words the ownership remains by the share shareholders but operation purposes are leased. After the
expiry of the leasing, the ownership of the asset and the operational responsibility are transferred to the
government at a previously agreed price

Veterans – Veterans Administration
For instance, investors may have an interest to sponsor one or more specialty programs such as veterans. This also provides an opportunity to establish a fund to provide granted homes or accommodations to homes for disabled veterans.
“Socially and environmentally sustainable” investment funds provide incentives to developers who develop with the environment in mind and taking into consideration ease of transportation to employment centers, opportunities for agri-business or other self sustaining options.
BOOT & BOT are methods which find very extensive application in countries which desire ownership transfer and operations including. Some advantages of BOOT projects are: 1) Encourage private investment; 2) Inject new foreign capital to the country; 3) Transfer of technology and know-how; 4) Completing project within time frame and planned budget; 5) Providing additional financial source for other priority projects; 6) Releasing the burden on public budget for infrastructure development.
BOO Water Treatment Example: . The facilities are run by private companies that process raw water, provided by the public sector entity, into filtered water, which is then after returned to the public sector utility to deliver to the customers
BLT . For foreign investors taking into account the country risk, BLT provides good conditions because the project company maintains the property rights while avoiding operational risks.
Another scenario we could take to MOH is DCMF (design–construct–manage–finance) model are the prisons or the public hospitals. A private entity is built to design, construct, manage, and finance a facility, based on the specifications of the government. Project cash flows result from the government’s payment for the rent of the facility. In the case of the hospitals, the government has the ownership over the facility and has the price and quality control. The same financial model could be applied on other projects such as prisons. Therefore this model could be interpreted as a mean to avoid new indebtedness of public finance.
