    28 projects have been selected amounting to ca. EUR 35m of JESSICAinvestments and corresponding to CAPEX of ca. EUR 150m.

    In 2015 all the resources were allocated to eligible projects. Additional amount ofca. EUR 4m was allocated to the UDF (increase of the fund).

  • The JESSICA UDF Sicily managed by Equiter, focused on financing urbandevelopment projects in Sicily.

    In the framework of a Convergence Objective Region, as Sicily, the UDF hasselected 5 projects underpinned by an urban socioeconomic impact andrelevant employment prospects.

    The 5 Projects allow to allocate all JESSICA resources (EUR 81m) and arrangeco-financing for more than EUR 200m.

  • Main issues faced by the UDFs in the implementation of JESSICAinvestments:

    • Delay in the start-up of JESSICA financial instruments in respect ofthe programming period start-date

    • Rigid Investment Strategy (e.g. initially excluding private promoters)

    • As far as projects promoted by Local Authorities are concerned:

    o Lack of JESSICA eligibility requirements, as many investmentspresumed to involve grants, without a previous assessment ofproject financial repayability;

    o Inadequate project quality and implementation level due tolack of technical assistance.

    Relevant issues

    15

    PresenterPresentation NotesRegional constraints which have limited the UDF investment capability (i.e. constraints deriving from the fund allocation among specific OP ERDF intervention lines)

  • • Implementation of Financial Instruments since the beginning of theprogramming period

    • Project pipeline

    • Flexible Investment Strategy

    • Appropriate governance structure – driven by the objective of the fund

    • Fund manager selection

    • Territorial coverage by financial intermediaries

    • Technical assistance for project preparation

    • Cooperation with private sector (e.g. PPPs, eligibility of private finalrecipients)

    • Simple and swift procedures

    • Capacity building and transfer of know-how to financial intermediariesand final recipients

    Lessons learned and key success factors

    16

    PresenterPresentation NotesTo allow JESSICA investments in presence of State Aid, so JESSICA instruments are able to invest more effectively in market failure conditionsTo give to the UDF a reasonable flexibility in its activity, while the assessment of compliance with OP ERDF remains in charge of the Region To provide clear rules in reporting and monitoring, in order to take into account urban projects typical features, i.e. long-term delivery period and positive social externalities. To give opportunity also to private firms/entities to apply for JESSICA resources to finance urban projects, if underpinned by relevant public objectives (i.e., job creation, urban requalification, etc.)
