SPECIAL TASK FORCE ON DEVELOPING INVESTMENT PROJECT
PIPELINE IN THE EU- MALTA PROJECT LIST



c. Permits and approvals from regulatory and environmental

aspects.
d. Commitment for cash flows streams based on competitive

economic considerations at the operational stage of the projects
in cases where government is expected to be a user of projects’

services.
e. Other risk sharing structures to stimulate private sector
participation.


4. Projects identified will need to have their economic viability leveraged

by means of new financial instruments that the EIB and the Commission
will develop by way of equity finance, mezzanine finance and other debt

finance on terms which would offer private investors attractive
risk/reward relationships for their equity investment co-participation in

the identified projects. A solid equity base composed by government
share as in 3. above, private equity participation and EIB special terms
financing would also enable projects to access commercial bank and

development finance through traditional financing channels.


5. Projects should ideally be offered for public participation for co-
financing through bonds and equities issued on the capital markets to

make the public as much as possible participants and supporters of the
execution of the projects. This will also address somewhat the excess

liquidity prevailing on domestic financial markets.


6. Projects should directly and indirectly contribute to growing the
country’s economic capacity and potential.
