4 Introduction Prof. Dr. Dominique Schaeling Chair of Finance School of Business and Economics RWTH Aachen University Prof. Dr. Michael Nadler Stefan Thiel Chair of Real Estate Development School of Urban and Regional Planning TU Dortmund University Fields of research: Corporate Finance Portfolio Management Real Estate Economics and Finance Cultural Corporate Finance, Ethical Inv. Fields of research: Real Estate Economics and Finance Financial Engineering in Urban Dev. Sustainable Regional and Urban Dev. Real Estate Project Development 4 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
5 Research approach Level 1 Research Team RWTH Aachen University Objective: Develop a method to determine cities eligible for funding through UDF by an indicator-based macroeconomic analysis Target group: Managing Authorities of regions or Member States systematic assistance and transfer of knowledge 5 Procedures: A macroeconomic analysis of sustainable development for cities is needed as a basis to compare the efficiency of funding for several financial instruments of the capital market for urban finance cities eligible for UDF
6 Research approach Level 1 Status quo for the determination of urban funding targets from the Operational Programmes : Selection of cities Subjective Black bo Define the In the EU 12 names of cities e.g. in Czech Republic Define the number of cities Thresholds In the EU 15 e.g. Brandenburg E.g. Population number in Spain Funding need for urban development Objective Data based Development indicators Types of cities E.g. in France E.g. growing cities in Romania Competition of specific projects E.g. Brussels 6 Black bo subjective criteria i are opaque No black bo objective criteria i No foundation objective criteria are uneplained Simplicity too simple to capture the comple situation? Foundation in research results Reasonable simplicity capture the compleity High variation member states and regions choose Adequate variation general different (sometimes combined) selection procedures method with slight adaptations
7 Research approach Level 1 Our approach for the determination of funding targets: 1.Sustainability comparison Method: Principal Component Analysis Input: Indicators for sustainable development Result: Distance to the benchmark Compressed indicator 1 2 Compre essed indicator Benchmark Cities 2.Efficiency of funding Method: Data Envelopment Analysis Input: Change in indicators for sustainable development, funding type (!) Result: Movability Compressed indicator 1 ed indicator 2 Compress 3.Combining the results Input: Distance and movability Result: Funding type candidates Mov vability UDF-Candidates Area Technical-Assistance- Grants Area 7 Distance
8 Research approach Level 1 Basis: Sustainability comparison among cities Method: A principal component analysis (with rotation) Input: High number of indicators, for eample Urban Audit Key Indicators Output: Small number of (compressed) indicators that are sufficient to describe the differences in sustainability among the cities 8
9 9 Research approach Level 1 Working on the input: The input is crucial for robust results! Test the robustness of the revealed small indicator sets over time and among nations: Urban Audit Key Indicators for cities of Germany, Poland, UK Two time frames: and with their average values Small set: Determined indicators by the PCA with rotation which are sufficient to represent at least 70 % of the variance in the data (each indicator eplains at least 10 %) Different indicators over time Nation and time frame and nations: Our method needs to be adapted for each Germ many Germ many Polan nd Polan nd UK 2003 Indicators Car journey to work Cars Children day care Children householdsh Domestic burglary Employees of employables Household size ISCED 1 2 ISCED 5 6 Male representatives Population Population change 1 Population density Price public transport Road accident deaths Unemployment rate Working age population UK 1999 time frame and for the objects of comparison! Rotation with its strong reduction of indicators suitable only for static comparison? Dynamic approach should be based on more indicators! The initial indicators need to be chosen carefully for our own indicator set (pyramid covering all levels project, urban, regional, national)
10 Research approach Level 2 Research Team TU Dortmund Objective: Identification and monetarisation of sustainability effects for Integrated Urban Development Projects and development of a method for controlling those projects Target group: UDF management systematic assistance and transfer of knowledge Procedures: Screening, scoring and feasibility of projects, financial engineering and asset allocation for UDFs, deviation analysis of projects 10
11 Research approach Level 2 1. Conception of UDFs 2. Feasibility study of UDFs Sustainability analysis -Categorisation of indicators to measure sustainability effect -Development of a straight monetary assessment -Development of operationalisation methods -Analysis of active UDFs Indications for research approach What s new? The approach goes beyond the state of the art: Monetarisation of sustainability effects in a transparent and comprehensible way Multi-level approach, a key factor for decision support of sponsoring Target I: Target II: Acceptance on the practical level (process innovations) Finding empirical evidence of sustainability effects 11
