Credit risk in the pool-implications for private capital investments in Brazilian power generation [An article from: Energy Policy]

Credit risk in the pool-implications for private capital investments in Brazilian power generation [An article from: Energy Policy]
This digital document is a journal article from Energy Policy, published by Elsevier in 2006. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
The new Brazilian Electric Sector Regulation of 2004 introduced two negotiation markets: the regulated pool and the free market. Competition in the pool is enforced via energy auctions, where the winning generator has to sign long-term power purchase agreements simultaneously with all distributors at the bidding-price. To estimate the appropriate credit risk spread of the pool, we implement a clustering methodology to rank and rate the distributors. The results show an average spread between 5.75% and 8.5%, which corresponds to a credit rating of B- according to the spreads available in Reuters 2004. This estimation is at least 208 basis points higher than the credit rating Ba1/BB+ assigned to the distributors by the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) in the periodic tariff revisions. Distributors with higher risk/spread are located in the South-Southeast, compared to the low risk/spread ones concentrated in the North-Northeast. We estimate the opportunity cost of capital in real terms in the range of 13-16% to account for the credit risk of the pool. Essential to determine the bidding price at the auctions, this estimation is higher than the 11.26% opportunity cost estimated by ANEEL. The pool’s credit risk has to be taken into consideration, especially for compensating new private capital investments in Brazilian power generation.

From the supplier: A survey of the members of the Assn of Insurance and Risk Managers in Industry and Commerce (AIRMIC), a British professional organization of risk managers, reveals that a majority of respondents do not believe that a UK government plan to provide insurance for terrorist acts will work. The UK government proposes setting up a pool to provide terrorist risk insurance. Members of AIRMIC were concerned that insurance buyers would not participate in the voluntary pool due to high administrative costs and high rating levels.

From the supplier: Iowa and Michigan have been considering legislation to require workers’ compensation (WC) self-insurers to compensate for losses in state WC assigned risk pools on the same basis as the insurance industry currently does. Five states have defeated similar legislative proposals. Some insurance companies support the concept as a means to cut their own losses. The National Council of Self-Insurers rejects self-insurer involvement in risk pools as a duplication of losses employer’s have already experienced.

From the supplier: The State Board of Insurance of the state of Texas, led by Chairman Claire Korioth, is attempting to end the insurance industry’s strangle-hold on automobile insurance rate setting. The rate-setting mechanism for the assigned risk pool is managed by the Texas Automobile Insurance Plan (TAIP). Currently, the governing board of the TAIP consists of 10 representatives of insurance companies. Korioth and the state’s Office of Public Insurance Counsel have recommended adding consumer advocates and insurance agents to the TAIP board and changing rules to allow the state rather than the board to approve rule changes in the future.
