2017

Interview with TAdviser, Deputy Director of the Fund Vladimir Raspopov

In December 2017, Vladimir Raspopov, Deputy Director of the Industrial Development Fund , in an interview with TAdviser spoke about the peculiarities of the implementation of the TESSA EDMS in the FRP and the main tasks of the new system.

For 2 years, projects worth 38.8 billion rubles were financed

In just two years of operation, the FRP financed projects of Russian industrialists for a total amount of loans of 38.8 billion rubles, of which:

  • 12.9 billion rubles fell on the engineering industry,
  • 6.7 billion rubles - for medical biopharma,
  • 4 billion rubles - for metallurgy and metalworking,
  • 3.8 billion rubles - for electrical equipment,
  • 2.8 billion rubles - for chemistry and
  • 2.6 billion rubles each - for industries electronic engineers and light industry.

The remaining borrowed funds were directed to projects in the fields of the forest industry, building materials and the production of new materials.

The horizon for the implementation of the projects financed by the Fund is 2022, by this time the borrowers of the FRP plan to create more than 14 thousand jobs and attract investments worth 86.2 billion rubles to the real sector of the economy. The volume of tax revenues to the budgets of various levels will exceed 78 billion rubles, and the total revenue from the implementation of projects - 923 billion rubles.

Agreement with St. Petersburg Industrial Development Fund

The non-profit unitary organization "St. Petersburg Industry Development Fund" signed a cooperation agreement with the federal Industry Development Fund in April 2017. It provides for the possibility of jointly providing a loan at 5% per annum for the implementation of industrial development projects in a percentage ratio of 70 to 30.

The terms of joint federal-regional loans will be identical to the terms of the Development Projects program of the FRP. Industrial enterprises will have the opportunity to attract loans for the implementation of projects at 5% per annum for up to 5 years, only for a smaller amount - from 20 to 100 million rubles. The share of the federal FRP in the loan should be no more than 70%, at least 30% should be accounted for by the regional development institute. The loan can be obtained for an amount not exceeding half the cost of the project.

The decision on co-financing will be made by the Expert Council of the FRP, relying on the conclusion of the regional fund. At the same time, a comprehensive examination of projects under the joint loans program will be carried out by both funds - each will independently assess the possibility of providing its part of the loan.

St. Petersburg enterprises applying for a loan under a joint program need to submit applications to the regional fund, which, after examination, will send them to the FRP.

FRP changed programs in favor of medium

The Industrial Development Fund softened the terms of its programs in March to expand the range of loan recipients from among medium-sized companies. Now borrowers of the FRP will be able to spend up to 100% of the loan for the purchase of equipment, and loans for the creation of machine tools will no longer be tied to the industry limit. In addition, the upper limit of the loan under the main FRP program was increased from 300 to 500 million rubles.

The corresponding decisions were made by the Supervisory Board of the FRP, updating the standard "Development Projects" and canceling the funding limit under the program "Creation of serial production of machine tool products."

The new standards remove the limit on the amount that the applicant can spend on the purchase of equipment (previously it should have amounted to no more than 80% of the loan amount). "Practice has shown that the bulk of funds from FRP loans are directed to the purchase of production equipment. Most applicants need inexpensive loans for equipment, and they are ready to take on the associated costs. The 80% bar limited the range of potential borrowers, "comments Komissarov Alexey, Director of the FRP. Now companies will be able to spend the entire amount of the loan on the purchase of modern equipment, which corresponds to the main profile of industrial projects and the main task of the FRP - the creation of new modern industries in Russia.

The FRP also raised the maximum loan amount from 300 to 500 million rubles - the norm that has been in effect since the start of the FRP in 2015, but changed in 2016. The real needs of even medium-sized industrial companies often exceed 300 million rubles, so the fund raised the limit. To co-finance relatively small projects, regional industry development funds are being created throughout the country.

In addition, the Nabsovet canceled the funding limit under the program "Creation of serial production of machine tool products." When the program was launched in March 2016, the limit on this program was 1.3 billion rubles. However, the real need for the Russian industrial machine tool business turned out to be much higher. The volume of approved loans under it in 2016 alone amounted to 3.6 billion rubles. Now the volume of loans under the most profitable "machine tool substitution program" for borrowers is limited only by the total capital of the FRP.

Since 2015, the Industrial Development Fund has co-financed 133 industrial projects in 44 regions of Russia with a total amount of loans of 34.8 billion rubles. The implementation of the projects will allow attracting 108.2 billion rubles to the real sector of the economy, in addition to FRP loans. And create more than 12.8 thousand jobs. The total cost of projects exceeds 143.1 billion rubles.

2016

Results

  • The fund financed 130 industries worth over 34 billion ₽
  • Russian industrialists attracted 108 billion ₽ of private investment in the real sector of the economy
  • The total cost of projects supported by the FRP exceeded 142 billion ₽

In 2016, the Industrial Development Fund approved and financed 77 industrial projects, which is 45% more than in 2015. In total, the Fund approved and financed 130 projects, giving enterprises 34.7 billion rubles of preferential loans at 5% and 1% per annum (under the industrial equipment leasing program). Borrowed financing allowed industrialists to attract an additional 82.2 billion rubles from extrabudgetary sources to their projects. Thus, the total cost of projects, taking into account the already invested funds, reached 142.7 billion rubles[9].

FRP began to advise on three programs of state support

The number of programs under which the Industrial Development Fund under the Ministry of Industry and Trade will provide industrial enterprises with consulting support in preparing applications has reached 7.

The new programs relate to the receipt by industrial enterprises of state guarantees in the implementation of investment projects, subsidizing part of the costs of R&D and reducing land rents for the forest industry.

"In 2015, thanks to the active work of the FRP Consulting Center, industrial enterprises received twice as many applications under the program of subsidizing loans for the implementation of investment projects - 270 against 130 the year before last. For the first time, eleven industrial projects worth 80 billion rubles received funds for development under the project financing program, "commented Gleb Nikitin, First Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, on the start of consultations on three new programs. - Positively assessing this experience, it was decided to expand the number of programs on which the FRP will advise and accompany industrial enterprises applying for state support. In the future, the FRP will become "one window" for the interaction of business and the state on industrial development programs. "

I. State guarantees issued under Government Regulations No. 1016 and No. 1017 of 14.12.2010 are granted under a loan from VEB, Russian banks or under bond loans. The use of this tool allows you to attract borrowed funds in the absence of the recipient's own collateral on more favorable terms than when applying for commercial collateral or surety. Companies implementing investment projects worth from 5 billion rubles (from US $175 million), within the framework of which new or reconstructed existing industrial capacities are created, can apply for state guarantees. In addition, state guarantees can receive on a competitive basis projects in the field of energy saving and increasing energy efficiency worth from 1 billion rubles. At the same time, state support cannot exceed 75% of the project cost, and the company's own funds implementing the investment project should exceed 20%.

II. The subsidy under the Government Decree of 30.12.2013 No. 1312 is provided to Russian industrial enterprises to compensate for part of the costs of R&D in priority areas of the civil industry. Industrial companies operating in priority areas of the civil industry and implementing R&D within the framework of complex investment projects with the subsequent production of competitive products can receive a subsidy. Borrowed funds can be no more than 70% of the total investment in the project, while the cost of the technological and testing equipment used must be at least 150 million rubles.

III. The third new program is support for the forest industry. In accordance with Government Decree No. 419 of 30.06.2007 , the status of a priority investment project in the field of forest development gives the right to apply a coefficient of 0.5 when determining the fee for renting a forest plot to the rates of payment per unit of forest resources and to the rates of payment per unit of area of ​ ​ a forest plot during the payback period of this project. Investment projects should be aimed at creating or modernizing forest or timber processing infrastructure facilities with a minimum capital investment of at least 300 million rubles. Among the assessment criteria: rational use of wood, processing of wood waste and reducing energy consumption, as well as import-substituting production potential.

By the end of 2016, it is planned to expand the number of programs for which the FRP provides consulting and information support to 10.

Launch of the investment elevator mechanism for non-resource exports

The investment elevator mechanism was launched in April 2016 as part of support for high-tech projects of small and medium-sized enterprises related to non-resource exports. It provides for the involvement of leading development institutions (SME Corporation, Industrial Development Fund, RDIF and the group of companies of the Russian Export Center (REC, EXEAR and Roseximbank)) in the activities of providing financial support to SMEs at various stages of their life cycle. Within the framework of the Investment Elevator mechanism, small and medium-sized companies can count on both financial (joint-stock and debt financing, provision of guarantees, export lending and insurance) and administrative and consulting support for projects, including when promoting companies and their products in target international markets.

See the Investment Elevator for more details.

FRP will invest 23.7 billion rubles in import-substituting industries by the end of the year

10 billion rubles went to the account of the Industrial Development Fund. In total, the budget of the Industrial Development Fund for 2016 will amount to 23.7 billion rubles and will consist of several parts.

The funds will go to loans to industrial enterprises for the development of industries with import-substituting or export potential under four FRP programs.

"Out of 23.7 billion rubles, most of it - 20 billion rubles - the FRP will receive in accordance with the instructions of President Vladimir Putin and the Government's Anti-Crisis Plan. 10 billion rubles. of which have already been credited to the FRP account. The transfer of the remaining half of the funds is expected in the summer of 2016. Earlier, 1,267,2 million rubles were received in accordance with a separate government decree and will be used to implement projects to create serial production of machine tool products. 1,575 million rubles were provided by the Ministry of Industry and Trade as a subsidy to the Fund at the end of December 2015, another 908 million rubles - in February 2016.

As a result of the selection, 23.7 billion rubles in the form of concessional loans will be allocated for the implementation of industrial projects within the framework of four programs of the Industrial Development Fund, two of which were launched in 2016. According to them, industrial enterprises have the opportunity to receive preferential loans at 5% per annum for the development of industries with import-substituting or export potential.


By mid-April 2016, the Industry Development Fund co-financed the implementation of 61 projects with loans in the amount of 20.5 billion rubles. The total cost of these projects, taking into account the co-financing of owners, investors and banks, is 83.5 billion rubles. The implementation of the projects will attract 63 billion rubles of private investment in the real sector of the economy, which is 3 times more than the amount of loans issued. During the implementation of the projects, 7,966 jobs will be created in 34 regions of Russia.

2015

Target loans at a rate of 5% per annum

As of 2015, the Industry Development Fund is an element of systemic measures states aimed at increasing the global competitiveness of Russian industry and implementing an import substitution policy.

The fund offers preferential conditions for co-financing projects aimed at developing new high-tech products, technical re-equipment and creating competitive industries based on the best available technologies.

High interest rates on loans and restrictions of the banking system on lending to development work and the introduction of new developments do not allow domestic enterprises to fully implement medium-term modernization programs. The fund's co-financing programs allow Russian enterprises to gain access on preferential terms to financial resources necessary to establish the production of unique domestic products, as well as analogues of advanced international developments.

To implement industrial and technological projects, the Fund on a competitive basis provides targeted loans at a rate of 5% per annum for up to 7 years in the amount of 50 to 700 million rubles, stimulating the inflow of direct investments into the real sector of the economy.

The Expert Council of the Fund is a collegial body that, based on the results of a comprehensive examination, makes the final decision on financing, finalizing or rejecting projects. It includes independent experts - representatives of business, the banking community, professional and business associations.

On the basis of the Fund, there is a Consulting Center for State Support Measures, including innovation - special investment contracts. The Foundation is also responsible for the creation and development of the state information system of industry.

74 projects for 24.6 billion rubles approved

The total volume of investments made in the organization of import-substituting industries has already exceeded 10.5 billion rubles. The implementation of projects will create more than 4.8 thousand jobs.

Loans totaling more than 2.37 billion rubles for the implementation of six import-substituting projects

In September 2015, the Expert Council of the Industry Development Fund of the Ministry of Industry and Trade approved loans totaling more than 2.37 billion rubles for the implementation of six import-substituting projects.

In competition with foreign manufacturers, it is planned to occupy at least 40% of the market for medical infusion filters and start sewing specialized shoes that are resistant to aggressive environments.

The total cost of six new projects exceeds 6.5 billion rubles.

"We managed to build a system of expertise and selection of FRP projects in a short time, which made it possible to approve almost three dozen loans worth about 10 billion rubles in less than six months. This is half of the Fund's volume for this year. But the quality of the projects themselves is more important than the quantity. Many industries have technological links that depend entirely or partially on imports, even if the final product is made in Russia. Therefore, it is important not only to develop the production of a particular product, but also to produce components themselves, which are purchased by import today, "commented Denis Manturov, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, on the results of the Expert Council.

Before the Fund allocates funds at 5% per annum, a loan agreement must be signed with the companies fixing the obligations of the parties.
