ANIMA Overview Main MEDA assets Market and growth (320 million inhabitants in 2025) Proximity of EU +Association Agreements +2010 Free Trade Zone Moderate cost of labour (1/5 th of EU average) Local resources & niches (from oil to brains…) The 20 -35 year generation is a gold mine! A growing interest, but investors still hesitant Fragmented Mediterranean market Mixed image -economy / geopolitics / culture Gaps (but improvements) in law enforcement, business attitude, or technical obstacles (logistics, training…) MEDA often absent of the investor short list Many opportunities do exist now Many ways of investing: JVs, privatisations, stakeholding, overseas branches Local market, exports, off-shoring, services, infrastructure, R&D June 2006 © ANIMA-AFII 2006 2

ANIMA Why such an increase ? A number of sizeable investments in the energy sector (Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia, Syria etc. ) Big real estate and/or tourism projects Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria… Originating in particular from the Gulf States Several major privatisation operations, e. g. in Turkey 3 deals for Turk Telekom, Telsim & Turkcell = US$ 14 bn The Arab investors (Gulf etc. ) are shifting part of their investments from the Americas to MEDA Complete transformation of the banking sector Opening of a number of agencies and takeover of banking networks by large European banks And IPAs’ and ANIMA's efforts… June 2006 © ANIMA-AFII 2006 9

ANIMA Why is Europe concerned? The Euro-Med challenge: an increasing divide! The southern rim (‘MEDA’, 10 countries, 240 m pop. ) needs to create 4 million jobs per year just to maintain its current unemployment rate GDP per capita 2002, World Bank New members-10: EU-15: US$5, 373 US$ 22, 689 MEDA-10: 2, 360 US$ June 2006 The biggest economic divide in the world! No jobs equals major risks This challenge may be transformed into an opportunity: A boost for local and regional development (40 million jobs mean 40 million consumers) A new burst of growth for EU companies and societies looking for markets and growth An obligation to develop reforms towards an investor-friendly environment © ANIMA-AFII 2006 12
ANIMA EU companies looking at MEDA as a growth destination Quotes from les Echos, 24/5/2006: "Though tempting, the Chinese market remains complicated and expensive" "I very highly disadvise China to SMEs without a real know-how and robust shoulders" "Settling here has a price. You have to integrate the language, distance, culture, the relative value of contracts, regulations… " "Start-ups have difficulties with Chinese wages in new technologies" June 2006 Eastern Europe and China are becoming less attractive (costs, capacity saturation etc. ) Big companies are better aware of the MEDA opportunities MEDA is closing its gap vs. Eastern Europe (46% of projects in 2005, vs. 28% in 2002) © ANIMA-AFII 2006 13

ANIMA Methodology : how to measure FDI performance? Macro-economic approach: financial records (past) Method: national financial accounts (Central Bank) Why? worldwide coverage; long series; ‘objective’ data Limits: mixes portfolio and physical investment; not fitted for regional/local agencies; only financial; only registered with official disbursement Micro-economic approach: announcements (past + anticipation) Method: detection of individual projects via IPA registration or economic intelligence (media, newsletters, internet) Why? knowledge of projects; may include jobs Limits: estimation by default (depending on the net size); based on declarations; mixes various types of info/ projects June 2006 © ANIMA-AFII 2006 17
