USTDA is known for responding rapidly to changing global environments while maintaining effective

service in working with our clients in the private

sector, in government and overseas. We have worked

hard this year to accelerate our program activity while

expanding upon our mission. In this way, we have

used the many tools in our possession to support

individual projects, and also to effectively correlate

our activities with important policy objectives and

initiatives set out by the Administration. These tools

have a direct positive developmental impact on host

countries through increased employment, economic

growth and environmental stabilization.

Throughout this year, USTDA has pursued its

activities in developing and middle-income countries

with great fervor. For example, with the aftermath of

September 11th and the ongoing war on terrorism

that affects us all, USTDA has worked to respond

quickly to infrastructure priorities and needs within

Afghanistan and the other frontline states. We strive

to provide specific, tailored and results-oriented

responses, designed to lead to greater stability within

the countries and regions through capacity-building,

commercial development and increased employment.

One of my personal commitments under the

current Administration is to continue to better our

service to U.S. businesses in identifying promising

opportunities, while at the same time promoting U.S.

policy and helping host countries to attain their commercial development and infrastructure improvement

goals. I look forward to continuing our work with

Congress, other agencies in the Administration,

foreign project sponsors, and the business community

to make this commitment a reality.

As 2002 comes to a close, I am delighted to have the opportunity to report on the U.S. Trade and Development

Agency’s (USTDA) activities in what has proven to be a remarkable

year. USTDA was able to provide a greater breadth and depth of

service to the U.S. companies, foreign project sponsors, and other

U.S. Government agencies it serves than in the past.

In 2002, the cumulative dollar value of export sales

associated with USTDA-supported projects topped

$19 billion, a $2 billion increase from last year’s level,

although that number only tells part of the story. Less

directly quantifiable, but no less important, are the

advances in overseas development efforts, increased

trade capacity in key countries, and added support for

U.S. Government foreign and trade policy objectives.

Recognizing that trade liberalization and open

markets provide an important base for development,

USTDA is working more closely with the Office of the

U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) on the World Trade

Organization (WTO) Doha Agenda. USTDA also

continues to work with the many other agencies, such

as the Departments of Commerce, State and Energy,

the Federal Aviation Administration, the ExportImport Bank of the United States, and the Overseas

Private Investment Corporation, in order to help

define our priorities and to help us respond to needs

around the world. As a result, USTDA is able to

maintain its flexibility and size because it is able to

draw on the expertise of other agencies.

In particular, the agency is pleased to support the

Administration’s focus on Africa with the opening of

a USTDA office in Johannesburg, South Africa. This

office joins the ranks of our other overseas offices in

Zagreb, Croatia; Ankara, Turkey; and Bangkok,

Thailand. This office provides another important link

in helping U.S. businesses uncover worthwhile and

productive projects in the region. Moreover, it

represents the Administration’s commitment to

supporting development in sub-Saharan Africa as

part of the African Growth and Opportunity Act

(AGOA) framework.

In addition to opening this new office in

Johannesburg, USTDA moved its headquarters at the

end of November. USTDA still remains in Arlington,

Virginia, just outside of Washington, D.C., but the

move provides much needed additional office space. It

also allows us to better serve U.S. businesses and

foreign delegates on visits to the Washington, D.C.

area through our enlarged and improved Business

Center and expanded USTDA resource library.

The agency’s success is a direct result of the tireless

efforts of USTDA’s diligent, experienced and highly

skilled staff. After one and a half years at the agency,

I continue to be impressed by the caliber of individuals

working here. Also important, of course, are the many

U.S. businesses, from small consulting companies to

large manufacturers, who we rely on to help identify

opportunities, assist with development efforts and

remain committed to working in challenging markets

around the globe. It is gratifying to have such strong

foreign private and public project sponsors with whom

we work, who bring to us their priorities and provide

the commitment to seeing their development projects

come to fruition.

Under the Administration of President George W.

Bush, USTDA’s priorities have been refocused so that

program activities more directly support important

U.S. Government trade and foreign policy objectives.

USTDA is a foreign assistance agency that uses its

grant funding to interact directly with

developing country project sponsors to

deliver targeted activities to increase economic growth. Using its time-tested

funding methods, USTDA proactively

identifies and provides initial support to

sustainable projects and technical assistance needs to implement trade policy.

Working through the U.S. private sector

to implement its program, USTDA brings best

practices and U.S. technology in delivering specific,

results-oriented development assistance.

USTDA’s program also facilitates U.S. companies

seeking to enter foreign markets and aids overseas

project sponsors in achieving significant development

objectives. We work to bridge the gap between these parties in order to create a working relationship beneficial to

both the host country and the United States. USTDA’s

program is geared to economic sectors that represent

significant U.S. export potential or policy impact. These

economic sectors focus on energy and power, environmental services, transportation, health care, telecommunications and mining and minerals development. 

Our agency provides the knowledge and resources

necessary for U.S. businesses to export their products

and services efficiently and effectively, thereby creating

new jobs and adding to the U.S. economy. The agency’s

strengths include a number of mechanisms that allow

flexibility in providing an immediate, on-the-ground

U.S. Government response to international situations,

and a knowledgeable and dedicated staff. 

The agency’s tool chest is comprised of a wide variety of activities, including: (1) technical assistance and

training grants; (2) feasibility and specialized studies; (3) conferences; and (4)

orientation visits. USTDA conducts

internal due diligence efforts using small

U.S. firms with technical expertise to

evaluate potential projects to help ensure

that they warrant the use of taxpayer

funds. For funding consideration,

projects must:

• Be likely to receive implementation financing

and have a procurement process that provides

“equal access” to U.S. firms; 

• Represent an opportunity for sales of U.S. goods

and services that is many times greater than the

initial investment of USTDA assistance; 

• Be a development priority of the country where

the project is located and have the endorsement

of the U.S. Embassy in that nation; and

• Face strong competition from foreign companies that may receive subsidies and other

support from their governments.

USTDA supports over 400 activities each year

designed to introduce foreign project sponsors to U.S.

technology and design solutions. The result is significant developmental impact overseas and a related

benefit in export sales from the United States.

The USTDA Viewpoint:

The world has changed dramatically in the last year and the U.S. position

and challenges in developing countries have changed along with it. In

recognition of the war on terrorism and the need for new approaches to

advance an open trading system, the U.S. Trade and Development Agency

(USTDA) has enhanced its mission to help meet these challenges.

Technical Assistance and Training:

Often, USTDA can best assist development by

funding technical assistance (TA) related to implementing the legal and regulatory framework necessary for project implementation or the development

of a particular sector. TA helps a country streamline

its policies and procedures so that it can more effectively participate in the benefits of trade and the

world economy. By facilitating trade, and the laws

and regulations that support good trade policy, commercial opportunities are also opened for U.S. firms

and the potential for the export of U.S. goods and

services are increased.

On other occasions, where there is evidence of

foreign donor support that is subsidizing the competition, U.S. companies need additional support to

secure major contracts in highly competitive procurement situations. In these instances, USTDA can provide for trade-related training as long as the interested

U.S. firm is selected to implement the project. In this

way, USTDA helps level the playing field and assists

U.S. firms to stay competitive in difficult markets. 

USTDA funded 77 TA and five training activities in

fiscal year (FY) 2002.

Feasibility and Other Specialized Studies:

Feasibility studies are necessary to assess a project’s

soundness and to evaluate the technical, financial,

legal, environmental, and economic aspects in the preinvestment stage. Since these studies assess the likely

success of a project before it can proceed, they provide

American firms with the opportunity to get in on the

“ground floor.” Thus, having a U.S. consultant perform a study provides a valuable opportunity to showcase U.S. solutions for a project and make the project

sponsor aware and more open to viable U.S. options

for implementation. At the same time, American business practices and technology are effectively transmitted to the project sponsors. In FY 2002, USTDA

obligated over $45.3 million for feasibility studies,

compared to $35.8 million in FY 2001. 

USTDA also funds other specialized studies, which

can take a variety of forms. Specialized studies can

range from those designed to enhance a country’s

capacity-building in a particular sector to studies

designed to facilitate the negotiation of trade agreements. Market studies, portions of larger feasibility

studies, needs assessment studies, and studies of trade

and investment barriers also fall within the scope of a

specialized study. 

A feasibility study that shows a project is technically

and economically viable attracts financing to the

project and helps to cause it to be developed based on

market principles. In this way, a small amount of

USTDA grant funding can attract international financing for a large project that is critical to the development

of an important sector in a developing country.

Conferences:

USTDA conferences provide U.S. firms with oneon-one contact with key international procurement

officials and decision makers. These results-driven

events build business relationships by familiarizing

project sponsors with U.S. goods and services. In addition they inform U.S. companies about specific

upcoming export opportunities and many times result

in a signed contract between a U.S. business and a project sponsor. Conference attendees receive project

resource guides that contain financial, technical, and

contact details for showcased projects. A U.S. company

representative will meet between 20–25 project

sponsors at a typical conference. USTDA conferences

during the 1996 to 2000 time period already have

produced over $322 million in U.S. exports. 

USTDA hosted eighteen conferences in FY 2002 in

sectors such as aviation security, environmental technology, chemicals, telecommunications, tourism, and

transportation to name a few. 

Orientation Visits:

In FY 2002, USTDA hosted 48 orientation visits

(OVs). OVs, sometimes referred to as reverse trade

missions, offer U.S. suppliers an opportunity to showcase their products to foreign procurement officials.

USTDA sponsors visits to the United States by foreign

officials interested in purchasing American technology,

equipment, goods, and services for specific projects.

Russia suffers from a shortage of

insulin, causing a major health care problem in that country. Production facilities

currently in use do not meet the standards

of the World Health Organization, and as

a result, diabetics are forced to either use

very expensive imported insulin or take

their chances with locally-produced products.

Responding to this need, USTDA is funding a feasibility study on production and packaging of high-quality

insulin at a new facility to be located in Krasnodar. When

the project is implemented, U.S. companies could supply

up to $15 million in equipment and technology, as well

as a continuing flow of raw materials for the plant.

CONFERENCE SUCCESS:

Conference on Financing Africa’s Future

In June 2002, USTDA and the Export-Import

Bank of the United States jointly supported a

specialized conference entitled Financing

Africa’s Future in Cape Town, South Africa.

This innovative symposium linked together leading international financiers and African project

sponsors in an effort to bring financing to large

infrastructure and natural resource projects

across the continent. During the conference,

more than twenty commercial lenders, institutional investors, equity fund managers, and

multilateral banking officials were briefed

on 18 of the most viable USTDA-supported

projects in Africa. These projects also present

strong U.S. trade and export opportunities,

according to independent feasibility studies

conducted for the project sponsors. 

Projects from eleven different African countries were presented in the areas of mining and

natural resource extraction, port infrastructure

construction, wastewater, oil and gas refining,

desalination, sugar production, and power generation. Financiers presented their candid views

on the best financing strategies for the projects,

including Ex-Im, emerging market funds targeting Africa, and the regional co-sponsor, South

Africa’s Industrial Development Corporation.

Project sponsors who presented their plans have

informed USTDA of the value they found in

moving their projects to the financing stage,

and response about potential capital flow from

the financing community has also been positive.

view ultra-violet remediation technology for the

destruction of hazardous pollutants, a trip to a wasteto-energy facility, a day in Boston at Enviroexpo (one

of the largest environmental industry exhibitions in

the United States), and a business briefing where the

delegates presented their projects to U.S. industry

participants. The projects presented represented

hundreds of millions of dollars in potential U.S.

exports. Several of the U.S. company representatives

reported positive discussions that they expect to lead

to sales or technology licensing in the near future.

independent evaluation of the proposal. Technical

specialists, usually small businesses, are hired by USTDA

to gather additional information on a project and

provide an unbiased evaluation of the likelihood of

project implementation. Desk studies provide quick

analysis of a specific project proposal and are conducted

in the United States. By contrast, DMs are conducted to

provide a more detailed evaluation, often of several

potential projects in a sector, and involve traveling to the

country or region under review. This year, USTDA

worked with 97 different small companies on over 200

DMs and desk studies.

During 2002, the agency took its well-established

tool chest and refocused its direction, while maintaining a focus on U.S. exports by placing it in the context

of policy-building and development-driven projects.

USTDA’s enhanced vision is essentially to leverage its

core competencies in order to invoke an immediate

response to new developments in a rapidly changing

national security environment. USTDA has begun to

place an added focus on nations and projects that will

have a potential impact on U.S. national security

interests around the globe through project support

and technical assistance in countries that are a primary

focus of U.S. development, trade, and foreign policies.

Based upon the importance of the hydrocarbon sector

in Latin America and for U.S. industry, USTDA contracted

with a company based in Houston, Texas to perform a

two-country DM. The DM consultant worked closely with

many public and private entities involved in the hydrocarbon sector in Bolivia and Peru, and spent one week in

each country reviewing several possible projects for USTDA

support. In Bolivia, an important TA program for the Pacific

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) project with the Government

of Bolivia (GOB) was recommended for USTDA grant funding. The grant was signed in August and the TA began in

September. When completed, the GOB will have an independent assessment of the key parameters for the Pacific

LNG project, allowing them to make several impartial key

decisions for the estimated $2 billion project. This way,

USTDA uses a relatively small amount of funding as a catalyst to influence a large developmental project that also

offers significant commercial opportunities for U.S. firms.

Alliances with 

Other Agencies

USTDA works, as a matter of course, with a wide

variety of other U.S. Government agencies to help

define its priorities, congregate its resources, and

help respond to needs around the world. To this end,

USTDA is able to maintain its flexibility and size

because of its ability to draw on other agencies’

expertise. USTDA has continued to build strong

alliances with the Office of the United States Trade

Representative (USTR) and the Department of

Transportation (DOT), while continuing to maintain a strong working relationship with the ExportImport Bank of the United States (Ex-Im) and the

Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) in

support of the Administration’s trade policy and

security objectives. This increasing involvement

with the USTR and the DOT is in addition to the

ongoing coordination between USTDA and the

Departments of Commerce, Energy, Agriculture,

State and Treasury. 

In addition to our link to the many agencies of the

federal government, USTDA worked closely throughout the year with the Secretary of Commerce and other

members of the Trade Promotion Coordinating

Committee (TPCC) to enhance our mutual effectiveness in promoting U.S. exports. USTDA was an active

participant in the development of the benchmarking

process over the past year as a part of the National

Export Strategy, which was presented to Congress early

in 2002. Accordingly, USTDA will continue to work

with the rest of the TPCC to help ensure that exporters

are served with an ever-increasing quality of service.

USTDA’s coordination with these other agencies

enables us to achieve our objectives of promoting U.S.

exports and the development of emerging economies,

while helping other agencies to attain their own international policy objectives.

A Year to Enhance 

USTDA’s Focus

The agency has taken its strong program of TA,

feasibility studies, training grants, OVs, and conferences and enhanced it by placing it in the context of

policy implementation. While the program has

remained the same — and still continues with the

same criteria and mutual benefit to developing countries and U.S. firms alike — the projects supported by

USTDA are also analyzed and evaluated by what they

do to further the policy goals of the United States. It

places the existing program in the larger, overall picture of our country’s foreign policy objectives. The

result is an enhanced role for the agency in areas such

as the implementation of bilateral and multilateral

trade agreements and trade capacity-building. It also

develops a closer relationship between USTDA and

other parts of the government such as the National

Security Council (NSC), the Departments of State

and Treasury, and USTR, as the agency works as an

action arm that can implement policy initiatives in an

operational way. In its enhanced role, USTDA is

continuing to facilitate U.S. private sector participation in development projects. In addition, USTDA is

devising measurements to indicate its beneficial

impact on developing countries to further illustrate its

effectiveness in furthering foreign policy goals.

USTDA knows from experience that there are

many ways of conducting business abroad, due to

different local conditions in the many countries we

work in as well as the current global economic

climate. Thus, one size does not fit all and USTDA

tailors its activities to fit the needs of the host

country. We look to our many private and public

sector partners to provide ideas as to how best to continue to promote development and spur commercial

activities around the globe in the future.

Strategic Goals and 

Performance Measurements

USTDA’s historical hit rate and export multiplier

ratio measure the strength of our program in a concrete and quantified manner. Development projects

are enormous undertakings that often take many years

before they are implemented and begin producing

U.S. exports. Accordingly, many exports identified for

the first time in FY 2002 are attributable to projects

that we funded up to ten years ago.

Developmental Impact

We are working to design ways to measure the developmental impact of the agency’s program in the host

country. Since we work with developing country project sponsors and host governments on a regular basis,

we are familiar with their expressed desire for our programs and activities. We also know that they are looking to the United States for effective partnerships with

U.S. firms to build commercially sustainable projects.

USTDA activities operate to make this link, and we

want to reflect and measure our success in this area.

The Export Multiplier Ratio

The export multiplier ratio measures the total

volume of business won by U.S. companies on foreign

projects that the agency has assisted relative to the

amount USTDA invested in the projects (i.e.,

USTDA exports/USTDA obligations). Since the

agency’s inception, USTDA-supported projects have

produced over $19 billion in exports. During the most

recent ten-year period for which USTDA has data

(projects from 1991–2000), the agency’s work has

helped U.S. companies export more than $35 for every

$1 that USTDA invested in these projects. 

USTDA’s Hit Rate

The hit rate is the proportion of USTDA-funded

projects that produce exports. USTDA’s hit rate is

currently just over 37%. This rate is especially impressive given that projects in developing nations are

inherently high-risk due to local economic factors and

competition from other nations.

A Renewed Relationship

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) is

pleased to designate China as the 2002 Country of the Year.

This honor is bestowed based on the strong commitment

by China’s many private and public sector sponsors to work

with the agency in a smooth and efficient manner.

China’s infrastructure and development needs

provide unique opportunities for U.S. companies and

USTDA assistance. During the past year, USTDA

obligated over $10 million for technical assistance and

specialized studies for projects and events in China,

focusing on activities related to aviation safety, air

and water quality, and clean energy.

In 2001, USTDA’s China program was reactivated

and grew rapidly during FY 2002, in part due to the

Administration’s support for China’s entry into the

World Trade Organization (WTO). The strong demand

for USTDA activity in China reflects significant development and trade-capacity needs,

arising partly from China’s WTO

membership and related commitments. To support these obligations, USTDA provided a grant

to the Ministry of Foreign Trade

and Economic Cooperation to

work with a U.S. company in

developing an electronic-learning

(e-learning) course focused on the

WTO and the impact that it will

have on China.

USTDA is responding to

China’s “Develop the West” campaign by looking to

promote infrastructure development and investment in

the non-coastal regions of the country. In fact, development of Western China was a focus of USTDA’s

China aviation conference held in March 2002. This

successful conference highlighted airport development

projects in Western China, as well as air traffic control

and general aviation throughout the country. U.S.

Representative James L. Oberstar gave the keynote

address at this well-attended event. In addition,

USTDA awarded a grant to the General

Administration of Civil Aviation of China to establish

a training center to help create and standardize safety

procedures in China’s aviation sector. In the future, the

facility will provide training to officials from other

countries in the region. 

USTDA is also involved in World Bank projects

focused on environmental protection and cleanup in

China. In September 2002, USTDA awarded a technical

assistance grant to the Shanghai Water Services Assets

Operation and Development Company, Limited

(SWAOD) for financial infrastructure advisory services.

The USTDA-funded technical assistance will help

SWAOD prepare and issue a series of long-term corporate bonds to finance investments primarily in wastewater

collection and treatment. In addition to generating longterm capital financing, the bond issues will serve as a

model for future bond financings by local Chinese

entities in other metropolitan regions to help finance

environmental investment in a sustainable manner.

Also in September 2002, USTDA provided funds

for the Gas Technology Institute of Des Plaines,

Illinois to help establish a natural

gas training institute in Beijing,

China. The institute will be set up

with the assistance of the Chinese

State Development Planning

Commission and will provide

training to Chinese officials in all

areas of the gas sector.

Contributions from U.S. and

Chinese private sector companies

will be instrumental in the success

of this initiative, which is supportive of China’s commitment to

clean fuel in its economic and development plan.

In the area of agricultural biotechnology, USTDA is

supporting a capacity-building program for Chinese

regulators, government ministries and scientists. This

initiative is designed to improve understanding and

cooperation between the United States and China in

this area, as well as to minimize administrative and

regulatory impediments in China for U.S.-based agricultural biotechnology products. This public-private

partnership will include training at various locations

in the United States and scientific dialogues with

Chinese agricultural biotechnology experts.

USTDA’s China program has grown rapidly into a

well-balanced portfolio that includes trade-capacity

initiatives, technical assistance to help with environmental issues that are important to China and the

world, feasibility studies, and training programs. China

will remain an important part of USTDA’s global

activities as some of the initiatives developed for implementation in China will be replicated in other regions.

Supporting U.S. Foreign Policy Objectives

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency’s (USTDA’s) size and the

flexibility of its program gives it the ability to be one of the first U.S.

government agencies to enter new markets, to provide economic assistance

to priority countries, and to advance U.S. foreign and trade policy interests.

As such, USTDA’s vision is to leverage its core competencies to stimulate

positive developments in a rapidly changing national security environment. 

USTDA is working to advance a wide range of

foreign policy and development objectives in more

than one hundred countries around the world by

supporting the completion of commercially viable

projects using U.S. goods and services. Highlights of

USTDA activities in fiscal year (FY) 2002 include:

Aviation Safety and Security:

The events of September 11, 2001 have brought

issues related to aviation safety and security to the

forefront of U.S. foreign policy. Increasingly, countries

around the world recognize that aviation safety and

security measures must reach across borders to achieve

the goal of safe air transportation. As a result, this

sector is a key focus for all of USTDA’s regions.

USTDA’s activities in the aviation sector include a

successful North Africa/Middle East Aviation

Conference in Morocco that brought together

aviation officials from ten countries and the United

States to present their priority projects in aviation

safety, security, and infrastructure development. In

addition, a USTDA-sponsored conference, Aviation

Security in the New World: Next Steps on Planning

and Implementation in Asia, brought together top

Asian aviation officials from thirteen countries to

discuss the development of commercial and security

related opportunities.

Trade Capacity-Building:

USTDA’s capacity-building efforts facilitate development of trade liberalization in the countries where

the agency operates and strengthen the links of developing countries to the global economy. USTDA

recognizes that trade is an essential and integral

component of development and works closely with the

United States Trade Representative (USTR) to

identify and support activities that advance the

Administration’s trade agenda. 

For example, in the Latin America and Caribbean

region, USTDA is supporting USTR in the ongoing

trade negotiations on the Free Trade Area of the

Americas (FTAA). To this end, USTDA provided

funding, in response to an urgent request by USTR, to

officials from the Caribbean Community and

Common Market countries. Without USTDA’s quick



funding response, member countries’ participation in

a capacity building seminar on government procurement, a critical part of the FTAA negotiation, would

not have been possible.

In China, USTDA awarded a feasibility study to the

Chinese Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic

Cooperation to establish an electronic-learning

(e-learning) program focused on the World Trade

Organization (WTO) and China’s obligations as a

WTO member. Also in China, in the area of agricultural biotechnology, USTDA provided a grant to

implement a training program in the United States for

China’s leading policymaking, regulatory, research,

and scientific organizations. This training is intended

to increase trade in this important sector for U.S.

producers by helping to improve understanding and

cooperation between China and the United States on

agricultural biotechnology issues.

Afghanistan and the Frontline States: 

During 2002, USTDA moved quickly to establish

its program in Afghanistan. USTDA was one of the

first U.S. Government agencies on the ground helping

to address the country’s reconstruction and development needs. As outlined in greater detail in the

discussion on Eurasia, USTDA’s activities in

Afghanistan are focused on the country’s key infrastructure development needs. 

Because USTDA is active in many countries around

the world, the agency has been involved for some time

in countries that are, at present, a primary focus of

U.S. national security efforts. Accordingly, over the

years, USTDA has developed relationships with business experts and government contacts in countries

such as Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan.

Thus, the agency had the capability in FY 2002 to

respond quickly and to pursue substantive projects in

these priority countries within a very short period of

time after September 11, 2001. 

Environment:

Consistent with the Administration’s focus on water

and the environment, USTDA is committed to helping the United States promote environmentally

friendly development objectives around the globe.

Environmental issues are examined as a matter of

course in virtually all USTDA activities. USTDA does

not support projects that raise environmental concerns

that cannot be addressed in an appropriate manner. 

USTDA continues to place a priority on helping

to advance clean air and water initiatives as well

as solid and hazardous waste projects in support of

the Administration’s goals of creating a safer and

healthier environment. One example is USTDA’s

organization of the July 2002 White House

Conference on Partnering for Clean Water in Asia,

which was cosponsored by the U.S. Departments of

Commerce and State, the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency, and the U.S.-Asia Environmental

Partnership. This conference featured 25 projects in

Asia that will help reduce water pollution and

increase water supply. 

Other USTDA-funded environmental activities

include four feasibility study grants in the waste-toenergy and renewable energy sector in North Central

Europe. USTDA will remain active in this area during

FY 2003, including a conference in Prague, Czech

Republic, in December 2002, featuring environmental

projects from countries throughout the region. 

In 2002, USTDA was one of the first U.S. Government agencies on the

ground in Afghanistan. Pictured here with U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant

Clifford at the U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan are U.S. Ambassador to

Afghanistan Robert Finn (center) and USTDA Eurasia Regional Director

Partnership for Prosperity (P4P):

Announced by President Bush and Mexican

President Fox in December 2001, the P4P has created

numerous opportunities for USTDA to support

development projects and technical assistance in

Mexico. In FY 2002, USTDA funded a number of

activities under the P4P umbrella, including the

signing of master grant agreements with Mexican

development banks Nacional Financiera (NAFIN) and

Banco Nacional de Servicios y Obras Publicas

(BANOBRAS). These grant agreements enable

USTDA to provide grant funds related to development

projects supported by NAFIN and BANOBRAS. 

Support for Asia-Pacific Economic

Cooperation (APEC) Initiatives:

USTDA is highly supportive of APEC initiatives,

particularly its counter-terrorism efforts. USTDA

coordinates its program with several other U.S.

Government agencies in this area and engages the U.S.

private sector in defining the methods and technologies that will help facilitate trade and counterterrorism activities. The leading sectors for USTDA

activity in support of APEC initiatives include

transportation security, customs trade facilitation,

border security, and agricultural biotechnology.

Working with the National Center for APEC,

USTDA assisted with the Shanghai Model Port

Project by providing a grant used for information

technology-related training that helped to improve the

port’s customs procedures. Numerous U.S. companies

have supplied goods and services to help make the

project a success.

In the area of APEC border security initiatives, USTDA is seeking ways to support the Border

Partnership Plan and the Smart Boarders Initiative in

Mexico by funding infrastructure development in the

border region. USTDA is partnering with Mexico’s

Commission on Northern Border Affairs, the U.S.

Department of State, and the Office of Homeland

Security in this effort.

USTDA’s activity in Afghanistan

began in early 2002 with the funding of

a short-term advisor to the Ministry of

Communications to assist in redrafting

Afghanistan’s telecommunications policy.

Another USTDA grant is further

assisting the Ministry in developing a

strategic plan for telecommunications

development.

A separate USTDA-funded assessment examined hotel opportunities in

Kabul. These findings have been

provided to potential U.S. investors,

and hotel and management companies.

In addition, USTDA provided funding in August 2002 for a Definitional

Mission (DM) in the oil and gas sector.

Based on the results of the DM,

USTDA approved funding for a feasibility study on a gas pipeline and power

plant project, and is considering assistance in preparing a petroleum resource

assessment.

In May and August 2002, USTDA

staff participated in U.S. Government

business development missions to

Afghanistan. These missions included

meetings with various Afghan officials to

identify opportunities for cooperation.

In September 2002, USTDA funded

an orientation visit to the United States

by Afghan Minister of Communications

Mohammed Masoon Stanekzai. The

visit focused on U.S. technology that

can help Afghanistan to develop its

telecommunications infrastructure.

During his visit, Minister Stanekzai

noted that, “A modern and competitive

communications network will help

maintain the humanitarian relief effort,

stimulate the economy, and build our

future as a peaceful and unified society.”

Eurasia:

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency’s (USTDA’s) Eurasia

region spearheads the agency’s strong leadership in the area of

reconstruction in Afghanistan and in assistance to the frontline

states. USTDA’s nimble structure enabled the agency to respond

quickly to the infrastructure priorities of these important strategic

partners in the war on terrorism, which highlights the agency’s

ability to provide fast, targeted responses to emerging needs in a

changing world.

“The war on terrorism will once again

impact Eurasia’s

regional program in

FY 2003 — we anticipate a major expansion of our Afghan

reconstruction

efforts and continuing support for the

frontline states of

Central Asia.”

USTDA also funded a DM to Afghanistan in

September to review potential projects in the aviation

sector. As a result of the DM’s findings, USTDA has

approved funding for a strategic plan for Ariana, the

state airline, and technical assistance in developing a

regulatory framework for the civil aviation sector.

Reconstruction in Afghanistan will remain a top

priority for USTDA in fiscal year (FY) 2003. Among

the planned activities are orientation visits in

November for Afghan aviation officials; in December

for the Afghan Minister of Water and Power; and in

January for the Afghan Minister of Mines and

Industries to meet with U.S. companies and U.S.

Government agencies. The Eurasia region is also planning a major conference on Afghanistan reconstruction for the spring of 2003. This event will provide

U.S. companies with an opportunity to learn more

about how they can participate in the reconstruction

effort and to meet with Afghan officials to discuss specific projects. In addition, USTDA is considering

funding assistance to build the capacity of Afghan private sector consulting engineers, who would serve as

local partners for U.S. firms operating in Afghanistan.

USTDA has also increased its cooperation with several of the Central Asian republics. In particular,

Uzbekistan, a front-line state bordering Afghanistan,

has become a strong ally in the fight against terrorism,

and the Government of Uzbekistan has committed

itself to enhanced political and economic cooperation

with the United States. 

During the visit to Washington, D.C. of President

Askar Akayev of Kyrgyzstan in September, USTDA

awarded a grant to the Ministry of Transport and

Communications to fund a feasibility study on the

development of an electronic-government (e-government) program. Kyrgyzstan, a small Central Asian

country, is interested in e-government as a way to

deliver services in a more efficient manner, using upto-date technology and interactive internet-based

operations. U.S. firms have the necessary technology

to help the Kyrgyz Government achieve its goals in

this area.

In Kazakhstan, another strategic U.S. ally in the

region, USTDA awarded a grant to fund a feasibility

USTDA has been

active in Uzbekistan

since 1994, although

at a relatively modest

level. However, the

events of September 11, 2001 brought about considerable change in our bilateral relationship. Almost immediately, the Government of Uzbekistan came forward as a

strategic partner of the United States in the war against

terrorism and capitalized on the opportunity to foster

stronger economic ties with the United States. Thanks to

the Uzbeks’ willingness to negotiate economic prosperity

pacts, USTDA and the Government of Uzbekistan signed

a Memorandum of Understanding to provide a structure

for cooperation, which has already led to the signing of

nine grants for projects in five sectors: power, water,

railways, fertilizers, and information technology, as well

as the establishment of a technical assistance program

for Uzbek Small and Medium Enterprises. The enhanced

USTDA program in Uzbekistan has helped to solidify the

commercial and economic relationship between the two

countries at a crucial time. 

2002 was a record year for USTDA in Uzbekistan. Pictured above (left

program of the U.S.-Kazakhstan Energy Partnership

and was conferred in a grant signing ceremony in

September involving U.S. Secretary of Energy Spencer

Abraham, USTDA Director Thelma Askey, and

Kazakhstan’s Minister of Energy and Mineral

Resources Vladimir Shkolnik. 

Other activities in USTDA’s Eurasia region during

FY 2002 include a conference, Destination Eurasia:

Building Infrastructure for Tourism, which was held

in Istanbul, Turkey in May. The conference brought

together over 200 attendees representing Eurasian

companies and governments, U.S. and other financing

institutions, U.S. companies involved in construction

and engineering, hotel supply, transportation, and

consulting; and senior U.S. government officials. 

The conference marked the first time that USTDA

highlighted tourism as a sector for development and

for showcasing U.S. goods and services. It profiled

over 60 projects representing over $200 million in

potential U.S. exports. Projects focused on road

construction, water treatment, hotel development, and

recreational facility development. Over 35 delegates

from 12 countries participated.

On-going privatization and restructuring of the

economy in Russia, as well as the continuing negotiations on Russia’s accession to the World Trade

Organization (WTO), present numerous options for

USTDA to assist in Russia’s development efforts and

expand opportunities for U.S. firms to export to this

market. During FY 2002, USTDA supported Secretary

of Commerce Donald Evans’ business development

mission to Russia and announced grants totaling

$2 million in conjunction with the visit. USTDA is

also funding activities supporting several exciting

development projects in Russia. Among these are

separate technical assistance grants related to the

adoption of a modern telecommunications framework

in Russia and the financial viability of RAO UES,

Russia’s power monopoly, which is currently being

restructured, and a feasibility study on the development of an insulin production and packaging facility.

Africa’s profile as a trading partner and investment location is growing with the attention

brought by the African Growth and

states are playing in the Doha Development

Agenda of the World Trade Organization

(WTO), increasing oil production and exports

in West Africa, and the economic development priority that the Bush Administration

In 2002, the U.S. Trade and Development Agency

responded to the development and economic modernization challenges in this large region by making record

funding commitments across a range of countries and

sectors. USTDA saw a marked increase in demand for

its assistance by U.S. companies and foreign project

sponsors alike, and consequently committed over

$14.5 million in program funds, or 45 percent higher

than any previous year, to the region. Fiscal year

(FY) 2002 saw South Africa emerge as a strong leader

in USTDA’s program in Africa and globally, with funding commitments of nearly $4 million to a diversified

portfolio focused on private sector-led projects, and

technical assistance to public sector entities designed to

build greater capacity for public-private partnerships.

Jordan, Nigeria, and Algeria also registered record years

with USTDA, and in doing so undertook innovative

technical assistance programs. These programs include

telecommunications sector reform in Jordan,

home mortgage financing in Nigeria, and renewable

energy for rural electrification in Algeria, as well as

infrastructure-led project development. 

In another landmark event, following the President’s

direction at the first AGOA Forum in October 2001,

USTDA established its Africa Regional Trade and

Development Office in Johannesburg, South Africa.

This fourth USTDA regional office allows the agency

to provide on-the-ground guidance to U.S. and

African companies and African governments seeking

to improve their access to the expertise and resources

of the U.S. private sector and U.S. Government trade

and development programs. It also gives the agency a

greater ability to promote U.S. business partnerships

in sub-Saharan Africa by providing access to more

projects at an early planning stage, helping to ensure a

strong portfolio in this critical region.

Infrastructure development is vital to providing

African economies with the ability to take advantage of

the opportunities offered by AGOA. Not surprisingly,

feasibility study grants for major energy, transportation,

environment and telecommunications infrastructure

projects dominated the regional portfolio in 2002. The

Africa/Middle East region committed funds to a record

29 feasibility studies in 16 countries. Examples include

natural gas development in South Africa, potable water

supply in Ghana and Nigeria, air navigation throughout

the Southern Africa region, port infrastructure in

Mauritius, and electric power transmission in Zambia.

USTDA continues its aggressive efforts to identify the

leading infrastructure and resource projects in Africa

that help spur economic expansion and lead to lasting

partnerships with U.S. companies.

The Middle East situation in FY 2002 posed particular economic challenges in that sub-region.

Nevertheless, Jordan and Algeria demonstrated

resilience with strong project portfolios. Jordan’s status

under its new free trade agreement (FTA) with the

United States and accession to the WTO has attracted

U.S. company interest, particularly in the telecommunications, energy, and aviation services sectors, with

USTDA providing funds for a total of eight new activities. The Jordan program this year included two new

capacity-building projects for telecommunications

liberalization for both the wireless and fixed line

segments of this expanding sector. 

Similarly, telecommunications industry expansion was

featured as a key element of USTDA’s Lebanon and

Morocco programs this year and will be a top priority of

sector potential in Algeria and Egypt in FY 2003.

Support for aviation security and safety is also a USTDA

priority for the region as a whole. As such, USTDA

carried out a successful North Africa/Middle East

Conference in Marrakech, Morocco that brought

together aviation officials from ten countries and the

United States in order to present their priority projects in

aviation safety, security, and infrastructure development.

Other innovative technical assistance and outreach

activities are a feature of the regional approach to meeting development challenges and the trade policy objectives of new FTAs and AGOA. The agency has worked

closely with the U.S. Trade Representative’s (USTR’s)

office to actively support U.S. trade policy in Morocco,

where we awarded a grant to the Ministry of Trade and

Industry to examine the probable trade effects of the

European Union-Morocco Association Agreement and

recommend options leading to an FTA between the

United States and Morocco. Similar assistance to provide expertise on trade capacity is being considered for

the newly announced plan to negotiate an FTA with the

five-country Southern African Customs Union (SACU).

In addition, USTDA has adopted the Administration

initiative to provide technical assistance to African

nations seeking to embrace market-opening policies.

AGOA-related activities constitute an important focus

for USTDA both in FY 2002 and into the future. With

USTR, the agency’s Africa team conducted AGOA training in Cameroon, Nigeria and Uganda. USTDA sponsored separate orientation visits for Tanzanian

agri-processing companies and Ghanaian manufacturing

business delegates to meet potential U.S. suppliers to

support qualified industries under AGOA, and provided

cost sharing for cotton industry rehabilitation feasibility

in Kenya. USTDA expects to target more high-impact

projects and strategies in the agriculture sector.

USTDA’s Africa and the Middle East team will build

on the record year it marked in FY 2002. The agency

will continue to forge partnerships between U.S. firms

and regional project sponsors who work to establish the

necessary infrastructure for African and Middle Eastern

countries to realize the benefits of the global economy in

striving to achieve important development objectives. 

    

In FY 2002, South Africa experienced the largest

increase in activity and investments in the history of

USTDA’s Africa and Middle Eastern region, eclipsing

all previous records for the country and the region.

However, more important than the total dollar obligations for South African opportunities is the breadth

of diversity within the South African portfolio. South

Africa maintains the most diverse, single-country private

sector program in the region’s history, and provides U.S.

business opportunities in key sectors such as: manufacturing, energy and power development, environmental

improvement, agriculture, port and rail modernization

and public health. With so many opportunities for

U.S. businesses and a willingness to accept foreign

contracts,

South Africa

will remain at

the forefront

of USTDA

efforts in the

foreseeable

future.

Asia is also home to USTDA’s 2002 Country of the

Year, China. USTDA’s China program was reactivated in 2001 after a twelve-year hiatus and grew

rapidly. During the fiscal year, USTDA obligated

over $10 million for activities in China. This year’s

honor is based on the dedication of China’s private

and public sector sponsors in working with USTDA

to achieve important development objectives. For a

detailed description of USTDA’s China program,

please refer to the Country of the Year feature on

page 10 in this report.

Another key step in USTDA’s Asia region was the

opening of a USTDA office in Bangkok, Thailand in

January. President Bush announced the opening of

this facility during the visit of Thai Prime Minister

Asia:

Unquestionably, 2002 was an extremely

successful year for the U.S. Trade and

Development Agency’s (USTDA’s) Asia

region. In addition to launching several

high-profile capacity-building initiatives,

the region focused its efforts on forging

public-private partnerships to promote

U.S. exports and improve standards of

living throughout Asia.

Geoffrey Jackson

Assistant Director for Policy Planning

and Regional Director, Asia

Building Trade Capacity

“Due to the size of this regional market, the Asia region offers some of the best U.S. export

opportunities. Asia is home to USTDA’s country of the year, China, and our new regional

office in Bangkok, Thailand helps to position the agency to assist U.S. firms and regional

project sponsors in forging successful partnerships.”

Thaksin Shinawatra to Washington, D.C. in

December 2001. The regional office is helping to

position USTDA and the U.S. private sector for

development and infrastructure opportunities across

the region.

Also announced during Prime Minister Thaksin’s

visit was a Partnering for Clean Water in Asia

conference in Bangkok, Thailand, which USTDA

cosponsored in July with the White House, the U.S.

Departments of Commerce and State, the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency, and the U.S.-Asia

Environmental Partnership. The conference presented

more than 25 Asian projects designed to reduce water

pollution and increase water supply. 

USTDA has mobilized considerable resources to

support capacity-building initiatives in Asia-Pacific

Economic Cooperation (APEC) member countries.

USTDA is proactively identifying project opportunities and developing them in close cooperation with

several U.S. Government agencies. USTDA’s capacitybuilding programs in the Asia region focus on transportation security, customs trade facilitation,

agricultural biotechnology, and other initiatives.

Highlights of USTDA’s APEC activities include an

Aviation Security in the New World: Next Steps on

Planning and Implementation in Asia conference in

July 2002 in Bangkok, Thailand. The event brought

together top Asian aviation officials from eighteen

countries to discuss the development of commercial

and security related opportunities. In the healthcare

arena, the National Center for APEC organized a

USTDA healthcare accreditation conference in

September 2002 designed to help APEC member

countries prepare healthcare services standards and

establish medical quality assurance accreditation institutions. In October 2001, USTDA hosted a

Healthcare in Asia: New Technologies, New Options

conference. U.S. company representatives attended to

establish new relationships and pursue high priority

projects throughout the region. The conference

featured more than 25 projects with a total forecasted

business potential of over $200 million in goods and

services open for U.S. competition. In addition,

USTDA is funding a capacity-building program for

Chinese regulators, government ministries, and

scientists in the area of agricultural biotechnology.

This program is designed to improve understanding

and cooperation between the United States and China

in this area.

This past year included the reestablishment of

USTDA activities in Indonesia, where the agency

awarded a grant to Perusahaan Gas Negara for a feasibility study on the development of a gas pipeline from East

Kalimantan to Java. The study will assess Indonesia’s gas

supply and demand situation, and examine potential

pipeline routes. The gas pipeline is intended to supply a

much-needed natural resource to Indonesia’s population

In September, USTDA awarded a technical assistance grant for

environmental monitoring in Jiangsu Province in China. Pictured here

are USTDA Assistant Director for Policy Planning and Asia Regional

Director Geoff Jackson (left) and Mr. Cao Zhihong, both of whom

served as witnesses at the grant signing ceremony.

During FY 2002, USTDA sponsored a Healthcare in Asia conference

in Bangkok, Thailand. Pictured here (left to right) are the speakers from

the opening plenary: USTDA General Counsel Leocadia I. Zak, Deputy

Minister of Public Health in Thailand Surapong Suebwonglee, Deputy

Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in Thailand Ravic R. Huso, and

Director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in

Bangkok Jordan Tappero.

and industrial centers, as well as provide substantial local

employment. A focus of this country program is the

identification of projects that benefit Indonesia’s

less-developed regions. USTDA anticipates additional

work in Indonesia during FY 2003 provided the security

situation remains stable or improves. 

In July, USTDA awarded a grant to the

Government of East Timor, the world’s youngest

country, for the establishment of a petroleum directorate. The grant was the first USTDA has awarded in

East Timor since that country’s independence and was

signed during a visit of the nation’s Prime Minister,

Dr. Mari Amude Bin Alkatiri, to Washington, D.C. in

July. The Government of East Timor has identified the

development of the country’s vast oil and gas reserves

as a priority objective. A number of U.S. companies

are interested in partnering with the East Timor

Government in this effort. The USTDA grant will

help to establish a stable and predictable investment

environment in this sector by funding a U.S. consultant to provide technical assistance in the areas of

institutional and regulatory capacity building.

In South Asia, USTDA capitalized on several

important opportunities in FY 2002. USTDA has

reengaged in Pakistan and is actively working to meet

critical water needs; improve the trade and investment

climate; and develop the country’s telecommunications, energy, and power infrastructure. USTDA has

also increased activity in Sri Lanka, where the agency

hopes to support the recent ceasefire and peace by

developing priority infrastructure projects in the

aviation and power sectors. In India, USTDA funded

several projects to address critical water and sanitation

needs, including a feasibility study for wastewater

recycling in Hyderabad. Consistent with our efforts to

promote transportation security and capacity building,

USTDA also supported several projects designed to

upgrade India’s air traffic management and aviation

security systems.

Looking ahead to FY 2003, USTDA’s Asia team will

continue to support similar capacity-building initiatives and specialized studies as part of an overall strategy to promote international development, create U.S.

jobs through exports, and counter the threat of

terrorism worldwide. USTDA anticipates additional

activities in the clean water and energy sectors in Asia.

In the areas of transportation security and customs

trade facilitation, USTDA will coordinate closely with

other U.S. Government agencies and with countries in

Asia on implementing key trade policy priorities,

including the Secure Trade in APEC Region (STAR)

Initiative and the Enterprise for Association of South

East Asian Nations (ASEAN) initiative. USTDA is

proud of its record in Asia and looks forward to helping countries in the region meet their development

needs in FY 2003 and beyond.

USTDA believes that projects in the waste-to-energy and renewable energy sectors

are foremost among commercially-viable environmental investments in Europe.

USTDA sponsored a conference in Prague, Czech Republic in December 2002 on

this topic. Future feasibility study grants in these sectors are planned. 

During fiscal year (FY) 2002, USTDA sponsored four projects in the waste-toenergy and renewable energy sector. This included three in the Czech Republic.

USTDA will assist in the selection of an appropriate technology for a pilot project

using waste biomass to fuel a new combined heat and power plant. A second grant

will help to select the optimal waste-to-energy technology for burning municipal

waste generated in the city of Plzenska Teplarenska and its neighboring communities.

A third grant will look at a 45 MW plasma gasification facility designed to produce

energy from organic waste. In Poland, USTDA awarded a grant to study the

construction of a system for the disposal of municipal waste and the generation of

electric power and hot water in Chelm.

Environmental factors are also the key motivator behind USTDA’s interest in the

Central

Environmental Investments

Eastern Europe

“Central and Eastern Europe is among the fastest growing and fastest changing regions in the

world. USTDA is uniquely positioned to make a crucial contribution in this dynamic environment.”

and

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency’s (USTDA’s) activities

in Central and Eastern Europe have been heavily concentrated on

the environment, consistent with the Bush Administration’s

strong focus on promoting sound environmental policy and

projects around the globe. Meeting environmental standards is

important for European Union (EU) accession, and USTDA has

provided significant assistance in this area. The agency’s strategy

is to focus on those environmental investments that can be

financed on commercial terms.

modernization of refineries, chemical and petrochemical

facilities in Europe. These modernizations and upgrades

are required in order to meet EU environmental fuel

standards regulations. USTDA’s activities in this sector

include a feasibility study on the modernization of the

Rijeka and Sisak oil refineries in Croatia, and a feasibility study on a petrochemical and refinery modernization

and upgrade project at the LUKoil Neftochim Refinery

and Petrochemical Complex in Bulgaria. 

During this past year, USTDA hosted a Central

and Eastern Europe Chemicals Conference in New

Orleans, Louisiana, which presented 38 projects in

Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland,

Romania, and Slovakia in a number of chemical,

petrochemical, and refinery sub-sectors. Over 20

representatives from six European countries and 60

representatives from U.S. businesses attended. U.S.

Representative David Vitter of Louisiana opened the

conference with remarks highlighting the importance

of trade partnerships. At the conference, USTDA

signed grant agreements in support of three refining

projects in Romania.

The telecommunications sector offers significant

opportunities for U.S. firms and USTDA is also

focused on the development priorities in this sector.

These include bridging the digital divide by increasing

access to the Internet and promoting competition by

supporting the growth of alternate telecommunications providers. To that end, USTDA is working with

cable television (CATV) providers, Internet service

providers and others. This work includes CATV feasibility study grants in Bulgaria, Croatia, and Romania;

an orientation visit to the United States for six

Croatian CATV company executives; and a study

grant to Iskon Internet in Croatia. 

The agency is also supporting a number of information technology (IT) projects in the Europe region.

Generally, USTDA is involved with large public sector

data management projects in areas such as justice, tax,

and health insurance. Examples of this approach include

the Belam IT data management project in Latvia, support for IT systems at Bulgaria’s United Revenue Agency

as well as at the Bulgarian Council of Ministers, and

another project to develop customs service technology in

Yugoslavia. During FY 2002, USTDA’s Europe region

served as the lead for USTDA in planning a conference

In FY 2002, USTDA

reopened its operations

in the Federal Republic

of Yugoslavia, which

had been closed since

1988, and experienced

a successful and active

year in that country. USTDA has undertaken a significant program in targeting investments in refining,

aviation, railroads, electricity and heat generation,

chemicals, and oil and gas in this important Southeast

European nation. Partnerships with the World Bank and

the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development

(EBRD) are a focus of USTDA investments, including

USTDA’s support for EBRD lending in the chemicals

and road building sectors. During the year, USTDA

sponsored two orientation visits to the United States by

Yugoslav aviation and rail officials designed to introduce

the delegates to U.S. technology and services in these

sectors. In addition, USTDA has approved funding for

three feasibility studies on refinery and petrochemical

modernization and upgrading projects at the Nafta

Industrija Srbje-Pancevo Refinery, the Hemijska

Industrija Pancevo-Petrochemical Complex, and

AZOTARA, a fertilizer company in Yugoslavia.

the U.S. Agency for International Development, in

November 2002 focusing on electronic-government

(e-government) projects worldwide.

Air traffic management is another key sector for

USTDA’s Europe region. In Estonia, Latvia, and

Lithuania, USTDA awarded a feasibility study grant

to assist the three Baltic nations in their efforts to

coordinate the modernization of their communications navigation surveillance and air traffic management (CNS/ATM). In addition, USTDA sponsored

seven air traffic management officials from the Baltics

on an orientation visit to showcase U.S. technologies,

products, and services. During 2002, the Baltics

CNS/ATM study was expanded to include Poland. 

Albania is a prime example of the agency’s work on

air traffic management, as USTDA has extended grant

funds to assist with the country’s air traffic control

modernization. The USTDA-supported project is

designed to take advantage of the country’s geographic

location in the path of well-traveled air routes between

Western Europe and Greece to create a commercially

viable project that can generate revenue to help Albania

meet its development objectives. The Albanian Council

of Ministers recently endorsed the first step in implementing the recommendations of the study.

In another recent TDA success, Harris Corporation

of Melbourne, Florida signed a $100 million contract

with Societea Nationala de Radiocomunicatii S.A.

(SNR) during the visit of Romanian Prime Minister

Adrian Nastase to the United States in October 2001.

The partnership between Harris and SNR was fostered

during meetings that the Romanian Minister of

Communications and several officials from SNR, the

national radio communications agency of Romania,

had on an earlier USTDA-sponsored orientation visit

to the United States. USTDA also awarded a grant to

Romgaz during the Prime Minister’s visit for a feasibility study examining methods to enhance declining

gas production levels at the Filitelnic gas field in

Romania’s Transylvania Basin. 

USTDA’s Europe region will continue to focus on

its core sectors in the future, which includes the

environment, information technology, telecommunications, and transportation, in addition to pursuing

new opportunities in other sectors.

USTDA shares the risk of project planning with the

private sector through funding for feasibility studies

for projects being undertaken by LA&C and U.S.

companies. In Bolivia, for example, a USTDA grant is

partially funding a feasibility study being conducted

by a mining company from Idaho as part of their

efforts to develop the Potosí silver resource in Bolivia. 

USTDA activities in the LA&C region also support

regulatory reform that benefits the private sector. In the

Dominican Republic, USTDA funded a technical assistance grant to assist the Government in preparing and

implementing regulations to establish environmental

standards in the mining sector. Unidad Corporativa

Minera (UCM), created by the Government of the

Dominican Republic to prioritize the mining industry

and private sector investment, has stated that the technical assistance program and institutional capacity

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency’s (USTDA)

Latin America and the Caribbean (LA&C) region is at

the forefront of supporting the expansion of private

sector participation in priority projects. USTDA

accomplishes its mission in the region by sharing risk

with the private sector at the project planning stage,

providing technical assistance to LA&C governments

to strengthen regulatory frameworks, and helping

governments attract private investment in infrastructure projects. Many USTDA activities in the

region also advance important U.S. policy objectives.

“With democracy and market economies

moving forward in the Latin America and

Caribbean region, USTDA’s efforts are

providing key assistance for the growth of

private sector initiatives. We look forward to

duplicating our support for the Partnership

for Prosperity in Mexico with similar

successes in other countries of the region.”

development, are critical to meeting the ambitious goal

of attracting increased investment and development in

the country in an environmentally sound manner.

USTDA is also helping LA&C governments to

attract private sector investment. To this end, USTDA

cosponsored a successful conference, The Andean

Regional Trade and Investment Conference, with

the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the

Export-Import Bank of the United States, as well as

the U.S. Departments of State and Commerce, and

the Association of American Chambers of Commerce

in Latin America. Presidents Bush and Toledo

announced this event during President Bush’s state

visit to Peru in March 2002. The conference was held

in Lima, Peru, and U.S. and regional businesses were

present to discuss opportunities in the infrastructure,

technology, tourism, and renewable energy and

environmental sectors. 

During President Bush’s Spring 2002 visit to Peru,

he also directed the U.S. Department of Commerce

and USTDA to establish an Inter-American E-Business

Fellowship Program. Under this program, mid-level

managers from various companies and sectors in Latin

America come to the United States for a month of

training and first-hand experience with U.S. firms in

the area of e-business integration. The first group of

sixteen fellows completed the program in September. 

USTDA is actively supporting the Partnership for

Prosperity launched by U.S. President Bush and

Mexican President Fox in December 2001 as a catalyst

for action between our governments and the private

sector to build on Mexico’s regional development

efforts. This support is evidenced by USTDA’s signing

of master grant agreements with Nacional Financiera

(NAFIN), a national credit institution and development bank that supports small and medium enterprises, and Banco Nacional de Servicios y Obras

Publicas (BANOBRAS), a national development bank

dedicated to promoting sustainable development in

Mexico primarily through financing infrastructure,

housing, public services, and environmental projects.

The agreements signed with NAFIN and BANOBRAS

are the first USTDA has signed with national development banks and enable USTDA to provide grant

funds to the banks to contract with U.S. firms to carry

out studies related to their respective technical assistance programs. 

In June, USTDA Director Askey traveled to Mexico

to sign four grants supporting the Partnership for

Prosperity. They include a grant to NAFIN, the first

technical assistance activity under the framework of

the master grant agreement, to support the development of an action plan to assist in strengthening

Mexico’s venture capital market. A second grant funds

a feasibility study on an air cargo terminal and airport

in Toluca, and agreements with two leading Mexican

development banks that will support priority infrastructure and other development projects. USTDA looks

forward to working with Mexican partners to continue

this strong growth in Mexico’s private sector.

One of the year’s other highlights for USTDA’s

LA&C team was a regional conference, One on One:

Developing Business in Latin America, held in

March. The conference featured multilateral development bank projects in the region and featured 50

projects in the pipelines of the World Bank, the InterAmerican Development Bank (IDB), and the Andean

Development Corporation (CAF). Over 100 U.S.

companies attended and met with project sponsors to

identify regional business opportunities related to

transportation, information technology, and environmental projects. Ambassador Peter Allgeier, Deputy

U.S. Trade Representative, provided the keynote

address highlighting the U.S. Government’s commitment to free trade in the Americas. The IDB offered a

procurement symposium to U.S. participants immediately following the conclusion of the conference. A small

business forum was also held at the start of this event.

USTDA also recognizes the potential to advance its

mission in the region by working together with and

supporting the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative

(USTR) in the ongoing trade negotiations that USTR

is conducting in the region. To that end, USTDA provided funding for a group of Caribbean Community

and Common Market officials to participate in a

capacity-building seminar in September 2002 on

government procurement as a critical part of the Free

Trade Area of the Americas negotiations. USTDA also

began coordinating support for important environmental projects being developed within the context of

the potential free trade agreement with Chile.

Overall, USTDA’s activities in Latin America and

the Caribbean continue to promote mutually beneficial partnerships between regional project sponsors

and U.S. firms that facilitate U.S. exports and the

completion of successful development projects.

USTDA has enjoyed an enthusiastic and diligent staff

since its creation in 1981. With the acceleration of the

agency’s program activity and the expansion of its mission,

USTDA’s staff has grown to accommodate the amount of

work that the agency produces. Specifically, the agency has

bolstered its legal and grants and its external relations teams

in order to better serve its clients and the various parties that

USTDA works with everyday. USTDA’s program evaluation

system has been strengthened and the delivery of its grant

programs has improved in its efficiencies.

The framework of USTDA’s staffing has few layers, in

that, oftentimes staff associated with one area of expertise is

also a member of a team outside of their daily work arena

providing a seamless cross-networking system. 

Outreach

A vital part of making sure that we as an agency are available to inform U.S. businesses about USTDA’s programs

and the many opportunities we identify lies within our

external relations team. In the coming year, USTDA will

further develop its outreach efforts by taking on a Small

Business Outreach and Education effort. This addition will

endeavor to collaborate and partner with congressional

contacts, local Chambers of Commerce, the Small Business

Administration (SBA), the U.S. Export Assistance Centers

and the National Association of State Development

Agencies in order to garner activities that will reach out to

small and minority-owned businesses.
