Guarantees
As part of our unique value proposition, the 新澳彩开奖 Group offers numerous insurance and guarantee mechanisms to help mitigate the risks for private investors and make projects bankable.
IBRD and IDA offers guarantees to help attract all forms of commercial financing to development projects by protecting financiers against defaults by a government, its political and administrative subdivisions and all other public-sector entities. They are backed by sovereign counter-guarantees and ensure continued commitment of the countries to the project. IBRD and IDA guarantees can be structured to mitigate any breach of contract that arises from government inability to meet its performance and/or payment obligations.
MIGA guarantees cover equity, debt, and other forms of financing, mainly to promote cross-border investments. These products, which do not require a counter-guarantee by the host government, cover risks posed by:
- Currency inconvertibility and transfer restriction;
- Expropriation;
- War, terrorism, and civil disturbance;
- Breach of contract; and
- Non-honoring of financial obligations by governments or state-owned enterprises.
