Former Soviet Union: Information on U.S. Bilateral Program Funding
(Letter Report, 12/15/95, GAO/NSIAD-96-37).

Hampered at the outset by a lack of coordination, U.S. aid to the former
Soviet Union is now better managed and is achieving promising, although
mixed, results in a variety of projects ranging from the promotion of
economic reforms to the disposal of nuclear weapons. This report
provides information on U.S. bilateral programs with the newly
independent states of the former Soviet Union from fiscal year 1990
through December 1994 to help them make the transition to democratic
societies with market economies. GAO discusses (1) the amount of funds
obligated and spent; (2) the amount of credits provided, including
subsidy costs; and (3) the appropriation source and budget function for
these funds. This information is categorized by agency, recipient
country, and programmatic sector. GAO summarized this and the following
report in testimony before Congress; see: Former Soviet Union:
Assessment of U.S. Bilateral Programs, by Harold J. Johnson, Associate
Director for International Relations and Trade Issues, before the House
Committee on International Relations. GAO/T-NSIAD-96-78, Dec. 15 (13

This report provides financial information on U.S.  bilateral
programs with the newly independent states of the former Soviet Union
(FSU) from fiscal year 1990 through December 1994 to help them make
the transition to democratic societies with market economies.\1
Specifically, it provides information on (1) the amount of funds
obligated and expended; (2) the amount of credits provided, including
subsidy costs;\2 and (3) the appropriation source and budget function
for these funds.  We have categorized this information by (1) agency,
(2) recipient country, and (3) programmatic sector. 


--------------------
\1 The newly independent states of the FSU are Armenia, Azerbaijan,
Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. 

\2 The credit subsidy cost is the estimated long-term cost to the
U.S.  government of a direct loan or loan guarantee, calculated on a
net present value basis. 


   BACKGROUND
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :1

The United States began providing limited assistance to the Soviet
Union in December 1990 to support the reform effort and then
increased assistance after the Soviet Union dissolved in December
1991.  In October 1992, the Freedom for Russia and Emerging Eurasian
Democracies and Open Markets Support Act of 1992 (P.L.  102-511),
commonly known as the Freedom Support Act, was enacted.  It further
increased assistance to the FSU and established a multiagency
approach for providing assistance. 

In 1991, Congress authorized the Department of Defense (DOD) to
establish a Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) program to help FSU
states (1) destroy weapons of mass destruction, (2) store and
transport those weapons in connection with their destruction, and (3)
reduce the risk of proliferation.  Subsequently, Congress added other
objectives, including promoting defense conversion. 

Other agencies, such as the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA), the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce,
Energy, Health and Human Services, and State, also implement programs
in the FSU with funds not specifically appropriated for the FSU
programs. 


   RESULTS IN BRIEF
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :2

From fiscal year 1990 through December 31, 1994, U.S.  departments
and agencies obligated $5.4 billion and expended $3.5 billion for
grant technical assistance, exchange programs, training, food and
commodity donations, mutually beneficial science and technology
projects, and support of joint space efforts.  The U.S.  government
also provided about $10 billion in credit for bilateral loans, loan
guarantees, and insurance. 

During this same period, 23 departments and independent agencies
implemented 215 programs in the FSU.\3 However, three agencies, the
U.S.  Agency for International Development (USAID), the Department of
Agriculture (USDA), and DOD implemented the large majority of
noncredit programs.  USDA also funded the largest portion of
credit/insurance programs. 

Most of the funding for U.S.  programs came from budget accounts in
the international affairs, defense, and agriculture budget functions. 
However, funds also came from eight other budget functions. 

The U.S.  agencies implemented programs in all 12 of the FSU
countries.  Nearly half of all U.S.  expenditures were for programs
with Russia.  However, when measured on a per capita basis, Armenia,
Georgia, and Kyrgyzstan received more than the other countries. 

U.S.  programs involved a wide diversity of program areas.  About
two-thirds of the total obligations were for food aid, private sector
development, emergency humanitarian assistance, disposition of
weapons of mass destruction, and democratic reform.  The remaining
funding was in 13 other program areas. 

Appendix I presents additional information on the entire U.S. 
bilateral program with the FSU.  Appendix II provides brief
descriptions of all
215 programs implemented by 23 U.S.  departments and independent
agencies. 


--------------------
\3 Twenty agencies implemented only noncredit programs, 1 agency
implemented only credit/insurance programs, and 2 agencies
implemented both kinds of programs. 


   AGENCY COMMENTS
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :3

All 23 agencies we collected information from were provided an
opportunity to comment on a draft of this report.  None of the
agencies disagreed with the report.  Some offered minor technical or
editorial corrections, which we have incorporated in the report. 


   SCOPE AND METHODOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------ Letter :4

Our review included all U.S.  bilateral programs involving the FSU
for the period fiscal year 1990 through December 1994.  Previously,
we reported on program coordination and financial information for
U.S.  bilateral grant, donation, and credit programs for fiscal years
1990 through 1993.\4

Using our earlier work, we identified 23 departments and independent
agencies with programs in the FSU.  Several departments and agencies
had more than one organization within the department or agency that
implemented these programs. 

We used a data collection instrument to collect the financial and
programmatic information for this report and believe that we captured
a large majority of the programs implemented from fiscal year 1990
through December 1994.  However some agencies were unable to state
definitively they had identified and provided us information on all
agency programs and projects.  We did not verify the accuracy and
completeness of the information provided to us. 

Obligation figures in the report represent binding agreements, such
as orders placed or contracts awarded, that will require payment
immediately or in the future.  The definitions for expenditures used
by agencies responding to our inquiry varied from agency to agency. 
Expenditure was generally used to mean the issuance of checks,
disbursement of cash, or other liquidation of an obligation.  For
example, the Defense Nuclear Agency reported expenditures as being
disbursements.  However, other agencies, such as the Europe-Newly
Independant States (NIS) Bureau at USAID included accruals--amounts
due to be paid--in its expenditure figures. 

Significant amounts of funds were appropriated to one department or
agency but spent by another.  To avoid double counting, we asked
agencies not to report obligation and expenditure information for
funds transferred to other agencies.  We also cross-checked funding
transfer information from agencies where funds started with
information from agencies that received the funds.  In instances
where funds were transferred between agencies, the figures in our
report show obligations and expenditures as reported by the agency
that received the funds. 

In some cases, more than one department or agency was responsible for
implementing portions of the same program.  In those instances, we
showed how much each agency spent on their portion of the program,
regardless of where the funds were initially appropriated.  For
example, DOD funds transferred to the Department of Energy (DOE) for
fissile material storage facility design are reported as DOE
obligations and expenditures.  However, DOD funds that DOD spent
itself for the same program are reported as DOD obligations and
expenditures. 

To determine the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) budget
function classification for agency programs, we asked agencies to
provide the appropriation source used to finance their programs.  We
then assigned OMB budget function classifications to the
appropriation sources, based on our knowledge about the purposes of
each program and budget account descriptions in the U.S.  budget. 

We captured only program costs.  We did not ask agencies to provide
salary and overhead costs involved in implementing programs, except
in those instances where overhead and/or salary costs were billed to
another agency as part of an interagency agreement.  We also did not
attempt to capture the cost of official visits related to the conduct
of diplomacy or Gore-Chernomyrdin activities. 

Our information does not include U.S.  annual contributions to
multinational organizations, such as the World Bank or North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, that subsequently provided financing or funded
programs, such as the multilateral component of the Partnership for
Peace, for the FSU.  We did capture U.S.  payments to multinational
organizations that specifically supported U.S.  bilateral programs. 
For example, our data includes USAID funding for the European Bank
for Reconstruction and Development's efforts to rehabilitate gas
production. 

We conducted our review from March 1995 through August 1995 in
accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards. 
Copies of the databases and spreadsheets used to generate the
financial information in this report are available upon request. 

We are sending copies of this report to the Secretaries of State,
Defense, and Agriculture; the Administrator, Agency for International
Development; and the Director, OMB.  Copies will also be made
available to others on request.  Please contact me at (202) 512-4128
if you or your staff have any questions concerning this report. 
Major contributors to this report are listed in appendix III.

\4 Former Soviet Union:  U.S.  Bilateral Program Lacks Effective
Coordination (GAO/NSIAD-95-10, Feb.  7, 1995).  Our update of this
report addresses improvements in the executive branch's coordination
of U.S.  bilateral programs in the FSU (Former Soviet Union:  An
Update on Coordination of U.S.  Assistance and Economic Cooperation
Programs (GAO/NSIAD-96-16). 


PROGRAMWIDE INFORMATION
=========================================================== Appendix I

U.S.  bilateral programs generally can be categorized as noncredit
and credit/insurance programs.  Noncredit programs include technical
assistance, exchanges and training, food and commodity donations,
science and technological programs, and support for joint space
efforts.  Credit/insurance programs include loan, loan guarantees,
and insurance. 


   NONCREDIT PROGRAMS
--------------------------------------------------------- Appendix I:1

From fiscal year 1990 through December 31, 1994, the U.S.  government
obligated $5.4 billion and expended $3.5 billion for bilateral,
noncredit programs with the former Soviet Union (FSU).  (See figure
I.1.)

   Figure I.1:  Obligations and
   Expenditures for All Agencies,
   All Noncredit Programs (Fiscal
   Year 1990 Through December 31,
   1994)(Dollars in millions)

   (See figure in printed
   edition.)

Note 1:  The totals in figure I.1 include both obligations made
against budget authority specifically appropriated for FSU programs
as well as funds appropriated not specifically for those countries. 

Note 2:  Obligations represent binding agreements, such as orders
placed or contracts awarded, that will require payment immediately or
in the future.  The definitions for expenditure used by agencies
responding to our inquiry varied from agency to agency.  Expenditure
was generally used to mean the issuance of checks, disbursement of
cash, or other liquidation of an obligation.  For example, the
Defense Nuclear Agency at the Department of Defense (DOD) reported
expenditures as being disbursements.  However, other agencies, such
as the Europe-Newly Independant States (NIS) Bureau at the U.S. 
Agency for International Development (USAID) included
accruals--amounts due to be paid--in their expenditure figures. 

Funding for programs with the FSU came from a variety of accounts
within different budget functional classifications.\1 Programs
authorized under the Freedom Support Act were classified in the
international affairs function,\2 whereas the Cooperative Threat
Reduction (CTR) program funding was from the national defense
function.\3 Other programs were classified under other functions, but
generally to a much lesser extent. 

Although the funding for noncredit programs came from a wide variety
of sources, about 82 percent of obligations came from the budget
accounts coded against international affairs, defense, or agriculture
budget functions and about 12 percent represents the estimated value
of donated commodities that came from excess U.S.  government stock. 
Donations, such as medical supplies and agricultural commodities from
domestic price support programs, were originally purchased with funds
from accounts coded against the defense and agriculture budget
functions.  The remaining funds were classified under other budget
functions, including general science, energy, and health.  (See table
I.1.)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
\a To determine the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) budget
function classification for agency programs, we asked agencies to
provide the appropriation source used to finance their programs.  We
then assigned OMB budget function classifications to the
appropriation sources, based on our knowledge about the purposes of
each program and budget account descriptions in the U.S.  budget. 

\b For donations, obligations represent the estimated value of signed
donation agreements plus estimated transportation costs. 
Expenditures are the estimated values of donated commodities actually
shipped plus the transportation costs incurred.  Expenditures are
shown greater than obligations because of increases in commodity
prices between the time the agreements were signed and when the
commodity was actually shipped.

   Donations for Fiscal Year 1990
   Through December 31, 1994,
   Obligations for U.S.  Bilateral
   Noncredit Programs

   (See figure in printed
   edition.)

We identified 23 departments and independent agencies that had
programs with countries of the FSU; however, the majority of
obligations were implemented by three agencies--USAID, U.S. 
Department of Agriculture (USDA), and DOD.  These agencies directly
implemented about 83 percent of total obligations for the noncredit
portion of the U.S.  program.  (See table I.2.)

Note:  The figures in this table represent which agency expended the
funds.  For funds transferred between agencies, we used the recipient
agency's data for obligations and expenditures. 

Table I.3 shows the amount of funds implemented by various agencies,
excluding those funds originally appropriated to USAID or DOD.  In
most cases, this means that the funds came from the agency's own
appropriation.  However, there were some instances of small transfers
between agencies.

specific country breakout, but knew that nothing was expended for
Russia. 

\b Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. 

On a per capita basis, ranking of U.S.  expenditures by country
changes dramatically.  The United States has expended more per capita
for programs in Armenia, Georgia, and Kyrgyzstan than in the rest of
the FSU.  Countries with larger populations, such as Russia and
Ukraine, are much lower in per capita expenditures--8th and 11th,
respectively.  (See table I.5.)

\b Calculations for this table exclude expenditures for FSU-wide,
Non-Russian FSU, Soviet Union, and Nuclear Weapon States. 

U.S.  programs with the FSU involve a wide diversity of program
areas.  Although food aid, private sector development, and emergency
humanitarian assistance accounted for about 54 percent of total
obligations for the U.S.  bilateral program, the rest of the program
was spread across another 15 sectors.  (See table I.6.)

\1 The U.S.  government's budget is divided into 17 broad functional
areas to provide for analyzing and understanding the budget.  The
budget functional classification system is a way of grouping
budgetary resources so that federal spending can be presented
according to the national needs being addressed.  The budget
functional classifications are summarized in the U.S.  government's
annual budget.  For a description of the system see A Glossary of
Terms Used in the Federal Budget Process:  Exposure Draft
(GAO/AFMD-2.1.1, Jan., 1993). 

\2 During fiscal years 1992 through 1995, Congress appropriated a net
amount of $3.67 billion under the Freedom Support Act authority. 
This figure includes a $55-million fiscal year 1994 recision. 

\3 The net congressional funding for CTR during fiscal years 1992 to
1995 totaled $1.232 billion.  Congress authorized $400 million in
transfer authority for the program in fiscal years 1992 and 1993 and
appropriated $400 million in fiscal years 1994 and 1995.  However,
$348 million worth of funds expired or lost transfer authority. 
Congress canceled an additional $20 million through a fiscal year
1995 recission. 


   CREDIT/INSURANCE PROGRAMS
--------------------------------------------------------- Appendix I:2

From fiscal year 1990 through December 31, 1994, the U.S.  government
signed $10 billion worth of bilateral credit agreements (loans and
loan guarantees) and insurance at a total subsidy cost of $1.8
billion.\4 (See figure I.3.)

   Figure I.3:  Face Value and
   Subsidy Cost for U.S. 
   Bilateral Credit/Insurance
   Programs (Fiscal Year 1990
   Through December 31, 1994)
   (Dollars in millions)

   (See figure in printed
   edition.)

The U.S.  credit/insurance programs were (1) USDA short-term export
credit guarantees (the General Sales Manager 102 (GSM-102) program)
and long-term title I and Food for Progress concessional loans; (2)
Export-Import Bank (Eximbank) direct loans, loan guarantees, and
insurance; and (3) OPIC insurance and loan guarantees.  (See table
I.7.)

The focus of credit/insurance programs has shifted from the USDA
GSM-102 program, which accounted for about 74 percent of all
credit/insurance programs from fiscal years 1991 to 1993, to the OPIC
and Eximbank loan guarantee programs, which accounted for about 68
percent of credit/ insurance programs approved from fiscal year 1994
through December 1994.\5

\a Subsidy cost does not apply to the OPIC insurance program because
it does not fall under Credit Reform requirements. 

\b Credit Reform requirements apply to the Eximbank insurance
program.  However, Eximbank cannot calculate subsidy figures for its
insurance program on a per country basis, and as such, could not
provide subsidy figures for its insurance program in the FSU. 

As shown in table I.8, Russia has been the largest recipient of U.S. 
credit/insurance agreements.  The large agreements with the Soviet
Union were for the USDA GSM-102 program.

Note:  There were no credit agreements in fiscal year 1990. 

We recorded the face value for these agreements based on the
definitions derived during discussions with the agency administering
the loan, insurance, or the guarantee program.  (See table I.9.) Our
subsidy cost figures represent subsidy obligations made at the time
the agreement was signed.

\4 Starting in fiscal year 1992, the Federal Credit Reform Act of
1990 changed the budget treatment of loans and loan guarantees to
more accurately reflect the cost to the government.  The credit
subsidy cost is the estimated long-term cost to the U.S.  government
of providing loans or guarantees calculated on a net present value
basis. 

\5 As of June 1995, of the $838.3 million worth of signed OPIC loan
guarantee agreements, private lenders had disbursed $142.5 million,
and of the $1.758 billion worth of signed Eximbank loan guarantees,
$13.5 million had been disbursed by private lenders.  Eximbank had
also disbursed $83.8 million of the $88.8 million worth of the direct
loans agreements. 


AGENCY SPECIFIC INFORMATION
========================================================== Appendix II

This appendix contains financial and programmatic information on the
215 U.S.  bilateral programs with the FSU implemented by 23 U.S. 
departments or independent agencies.  Agencies are listed in order of
total funds obligated for noncredit programs from fiscal years 1990
through the first quarter of fiscal year 1995.  The following
information is provided for each agency: 

  cumulative obligations and expenditures for noncredit programs;

  funding sources for noncredit obligations;

  OMB budget functions and donations for noncredit obligations;

  noncredit obligations, expenditures, and estimated program
     completion date by program;

  credit and insurance face value and subsidy cost by program; and

  program descriptions. 

As part of our data collection effort, we asked agencies to provide
information on the programs they were implementing in the FSU.  The
descriptions and estimated completion dates are taken from the
agencies' responses.  For the purposes of this report, we did not
review or assess the validity of the program descriptions provided. 
In some instances, programs had been completed at the time of our
survey.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USAID implemented the following 21 programs: 


      CENTRAL ASIAN AMERICAN
      ENTERPRISE FUND
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.1

This fund is designed to stimulate restructuring and growth of small-
and medium-sized private and privatizing enterprises in Central Asia
through providing loan and equity capital and direct technical
assistance. 


      DEMOCRATIC PLURALISM
      INITIATIVES
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.2

USAID helps the FSU countries foster democratic systems characterized
by decentralized government with strong, capable local governments;
pluralistic civil societies capable of exercising their rights and
responsibilities; and increased respect for individual rights and
rule of law.  The components to address these objectives are
political processes, rule of law, public administration and local
government, civil society, independent media, and program design and
management. 


      DISASTER ASSISTANCE
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.3

USAID's Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance coordinates the U.S. 
government's aid to victims of disasters in foreign countries.  The
program objective is to provide humanitarian assistance that will
save the greatest number of lives, reduce the greatest amount of
human suffering, and reduce the economic and social effects of the
disaster for the greatest number of people within the resources
available. 


      ECONOMIC RESTRUCTURING AND
      FINANCIAL SECTOR REFORM
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.4

The project addresses policy, institutional, and technical banking
skill constraints associated with developing a sound system of
government finance and commercial banking.  The project also helps
develop the legal and policy environment to support open access to
economic information.  The four components of the project are fiscal
reform, financial sector reform, business environment, and program
design and management. 


      ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND MARKET
      REFORM
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.5

USAID seeks to improve the efficiency and performance of energy
production and consumption, support energy privatization and market
reform, and reduce safety risks of nuclear power plants in the FSU. 
USAID solely or partially implements efforts to address problems in
pricing and national policy, district heating and energy efficiency,
energy subsector restructuring, trade and international markets, and
program design and management.  NRC and DOE implement the nuclear
safety portion of this project. 


      ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY AND
      TECHNOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.6

This project encourages environmentally sound approaches to the
economic and social reforms in the FSU, promotes specific
environmental quality improvements, and encourages U.S.  private
sector participation in the region's environmental management.  This
project has four components:  environmental policy and institution
building, health risks, public awareness and environmental
accountability, and the Aral Sea initiative. 


      EURASIA FOUNDATION
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.7

The Eurasia Foundation primarily provides small grants funded by
public and private resources to a variety of organizations to obtain
rapid response in economic and democratic reform, and education and
training. 


      EUROPEAN BANK FOR
      RECONSTRUCTION AND
      DEVELOPMENT ENTERPRISE FUND
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.8

Two investment funds in Russia involve the European Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (EBRD):  (1) the multilateral Russia
Small Business Fund, which funds capital and business advisory
services for micro and small enterprises in Russia and (2) the
U.S.-EBRD Regional Venture Fund, which will provide capital to
recently privatized medium- to large-sized Russian enterprises in the
Lower Volga region. 


      EXCHANGES AND TRAINING
------------------------------------------------------ Appendix II:1.9

The project was developed as a flexible means to provide exchanges
and training that support the transition to free market economies and
democratic governance.  The project also tries to build sustainable
links between professional associations of the United States and the
FSU to foster continuing education among educational institutions and
strengthen indigenous training capacities. 


      FARMER-TO-FARMER
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.10

As part of its global Farmer-to-Farmer program, USAID's Office of
Private Voluntary Cooperation sends American agriculturalists to the
FSU to provide direct technical assistance to farmers, food
processors, farmers' associations, and other agricultural
organizations. 


      FOOD SYSTEMS RESTRUCTURING
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.11

USAID helps promote effective and competitive agribusiness systems by
working through U.S.  agribusiness associations to support the
involvement of their member companies and cooperatives in developing
long-term business ventures.  The project focuses on five components: 
storage systems, marketing efficiency, agribusiness partnerships,
privatized farm support for Russia, and program design and
management. 


      FUND FOR LARGE ENTERPRISES
      IN RUSSIA
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.12

The fund is designed to stimulate the restructuring of medium- to
large-sized enterprises that are emerging from the privatization
program in Russia. 


      HEALTH CARE INITIATIVES
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.13

The project addresses three key problems:  (1) the declining quality
of health care, (2) the collapse of the pharmaceutical and medical
supply industry, and (3) a financing system lacking incentives for
efficiency and cost control.  The project is made up of six
components:  medical partnerships, vaccine and pharmaceutical
security, health monitoring, finance and service delivery
alternatives, women's health and family planning, and program design
and management. 


      HOUSING SECTOR REFORM
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.14

The project supports the development of a market-oriented housing
sector in the FSU through legal and institutional reforms, reduced
housing subsidies, promotion of private housing markets, and creation
of pilot housing and urban finance programs.  The project also
finances housing for demobilized Russian officers and job-related
training. 


      HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE FOR
      ARMENIAN EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.15

This project provided humanitarian relief, medical treatment,
education, and vocational training for victims of the Armenian
earthquake that occurred on December 7, 1988.  This project was
completed in fiscal year 1994. 


      HUMANITARIAN EMERGENCY
      MEDICAL ASSISTANCE FOR THE
      SOVIET UNION
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.16

This project addressed the medical crisis in the FSU caused by
critical shortages of basic medical supplies.  The project supported
private voluntary organizations' efforts to address basic health
needs by distributing donated medical supplies and medicines to
groups most vulnerable to illness and disease.  This project was
completed in fiscal year 1993. 


      NIS SPECIAL INITIATIVES
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.17

The NIS\1 special initiatives project supports the transition toward
participatory democracy and economic freedom by funding activities
that deal with problems such as the privatization of functions
previously under state domain.  As the special initiatives expand
into broader sectoral programs, they are transferred into separate,
independent projects.  Activities in this project focus on emergency
humanitarian assistance, technical support, pilot programs, and cross
sectoral quick responses. 


--------------------
\1 NIS is the abbreviation for Newly Independent States.  Several
departments use this abbreviation in the title of their projects. 
The NIS is the same geographic area as the FSU. 


      PRIVATE SECTOR INITIATIVES
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.18

The project supports the privatization of state-owned enterprises,
fosters the emergence of small indigenous private businesses, and
reduces the barriers to private investment and growth.  Project
implementation to date has focused on support for privatization,
trade and investment, and small business.  Assistance is also
directed at the development of capital markets and post-privatization
initiatives to contribute to the commercial viability of newly
privatized firms. 


      RUSSIA AMERICAN ENTERPRISE
      FUND
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.19

This fund is designed to stimulate restructuring and market-oriented
operations of small- and medium-sized private and privatizing
enterprises in Russia through the provision of loan and equity
capital and direct technical assistance. 


      RUSSIA ENERGY AND
      ENVIRONMENTAL COMMODITY
      IMPORT PROGRAM
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.20

This is a grant program to introduce to Russia U.S.  equipment
designed to improve the efficiency of energy use and improve
environmental quality, primarily in the energy sector.  The equipment
and related services will be provided to public sector and
privatizing entities. 


      WESTERN NIS ENTERPRISE FUND
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:1.21

This program is designed to stimulate restructuring and
market-oriented operations of small- and medium-sized private and
privatizing enterprises in Ukraine, Belarus, and Moldova by providing
loan and equity capital and direct technical assistance.

Note:  Credit reform requirements apply to the Eximbank insurance
program.  However, Eximbank cannot calculate subsidy figures for its
insurance program on a per country basis, and as such, could not
provide subsidy figures for its insurance program in the FSU. 

Eximbank implemented the following three credit/insurance programs: 


      DIRECT LOANS
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:23.1

This program provides direct loans to finance the sale of U.S. 
exports to foreign countries to encourage U.S.  exports and create
U.S.  jobs. 


      LOAN GUARANTEES
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:23.2

This program provides loan guarantees to finance the sale of U.S. 
exports to foreign countries to encourage U.S.  exports and create
U.S.  jobs. 


      SHORT-TERM INSURANCE
----------------------------------------------------- Appendix II:23.3

This program provides short-term insurance for shipments of U.S. 
goods to foreign countries.
