1996 - The BA Concerns
• Compulsory Expansion impaired by people’s inability to pay the Infrastructure Charge
• New Environmental Objectives & Standards
• Tariff Regime hampered rational water use and gave no incentives to expansion
• Limitations & Subjectivity of Cost Revisions
• Lack of Rules & Regulations

• Regulatory Issues– Need to incorporate new environmental
objectives (Matanza-Riachuelo) & standards– Cost Revision Trigger (7%) no longer valid– Definition and Measurement of Efficiency– Need for an appropriate Risk Allocation – Overall economic equilibrium of the concession

Capacity to Pay computed as 4% of a $250/month family income, which is considered as the threshold for extremely poor family. Numbers do not include 21% VAT added to bill. SUMA and CIS values are now a 5.31% higher since they are indexed to the K factor.

The Aguas Argentinas Case:New Economic Regulation
• From price-cap to benchmark model.
• Tariff Equilibrium:– Formalize relationship between Revenues,
Investments, Operating Expenditures and Capital Employed (Debt+Equity)
– Achieve Financial Equilibrium of the Concession.
![Page 28: World Bank Experience in the Privatization Process Presented at the Water Policy in the Americas Roundtable 21 September 2000 by Ventura Bengoechea.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e415503460f94b33cf9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Financial ratios become a key reference.• Adequate Rate of Return for each 5-year
period will be a function of:• Country risk (long-term bond)• Business own risk (UK based)• Company’s projected financial structure
(Debt/Equity)
• Equilibrium position, subject to efficient operation:
Discounted value of Future Net Funds Flow equals 0
