TCGI is an innovative consulting firm specializing
in development finance.
Since 1994, we have provided comprehensive technical advice
to businesses, development organizations, governments, and
civil society on business finance, capital markets development,
infrastructure and project finance, municipal finance, and
trade and investment facilitation. Our consulting services
focus on:
Policy & Planning.
We work to create enabling conditions
that allow for the local development of market-based financial
systems. TCGI specializes in assisting state and local governments
to design and implement policy reforms for the privatization
of municipal water and sanitation services. Over the past
ten years, we have worked extensively in India to create a
business, economic, legal, and regulatory environment that
encourages private sector investments in environmental services.
Our achievements include the introduction of double entry
accounting, municipal bonds, and pooled municipal bonds. In the U.S. we provide community revitalization and planning services to local housing authorities.
Program Implementation & Management.
TCGI also offers comprehensive program implementation
and management services. We have managed the Indo-US Financial
Institutions and Expansion – Debt Component (FIRE-D)
since its inception in 1994. The program is designed to institutionalize
the delivery of commercially viable environmental infrastructure
and services. TCGI was recently awarded another contract extension
on the project until 2008.
Financial Transactions. We,
however, are recognized in the field for our ability to deliver
tangible results through completed financial/project transactions.
We have leveraged more than US$4.2 billion in public and private
sector investments in water and sanitation under the FIRE
project. We have structured more than US$154 million in approved
credit facilities for the USAID Development Credit Authority
(DCA). We have facilitated more than
US$180 million in American exports to Eastern Europe and Eurasia
since 1999 through the Ecolinks program. We measure our success
through tangible results.
Program Evaluation & Monitoring.
In addition, we also offer program evaluation and
monitoring services. We have managed the USAID DCA
and Micro/Small Enterprise Development portfolio with more
than US$500 million in loans under coverage. We provided comprehensive
support in monitoring portfolio performance, maintaining loan
portfolio records, and quantitative data analysis. This work
complements our work in program evaluation. Other past assignments
include: assessment and delivery of urban reforms in India,
review of the urban governance programs, and assisting in
Office of Management and Budget performance assessment rating
tool exercises.
