September 21, 2021: The Development Bank of Southern Africa, South African National Treasury and the European Union are pleased to discuss and share with participants the  experience gained to fast track municipal infrastructure delivery by capacitating municipalities with regards to developing Long Term Financing Plans (LTFP) and identifying bankable projects for implementation.

The objective of the LTFP is to assist the municipalities to identify funding sources that the municipality can mobilize to achieve their infrastructure goals without negatively impacting the municipality’s long-term financial sustainability and to assist municipalities package and present their projects in a manner that fulfils the fundamental pre-requisites for approaching DFI’s, MDB’s) and Private Sector funders. 

“The outcome of the LTFP should be a basis for the municipality’s long-term funding needs, its financing strategy and how this funding will be utilized to blend it with own income generated and grant flows from provincial and central government”, said Alwyn Coetzee, IIPSA Advisor.

The webinar will unpack the learnings and successes to consider potential solutions to promote partnerships between municipalities and Commercial Banks, Development Finance Institutions (DFI’s) and other stakeholders, to mobilize long-term financing for municipal infrastructure investment and service delivery,
