It will do this by (i) addressing critical pension problems in 26 of Brazil's most important municipaituies comprising many state capitals plis large lulicipalities, and (ii) strenguthening the capacity of the Ministry of Social Security and Social Assistance (MPAS) to carry out its legal mandate to provide technical assistance, monitor and evaluate pension management and validate performance. The loan targets these larger municipalities because they account for a preponderance of the total aggregate municipal pension debt. Also, given their importance and geographic distribution, they can eventually become vehicles for extending the PREV-MUN approach to the over 2,700 municipalities operating public pension systems Tne project is modeiedu on mhe Bii'an-s Strate Pension Reform LIL (" rAiEa "r; Loan ffQ369). It has similar objectives and will adapt approaches and methodologies currently being implemented in Brazilian states. Similar to PARSEP, the operation will focus on the basic building blocks of pension reform for municipalitieswhile strengthening the capacity of MPAS's Secretary of Social Security ("SPS") and its Department ofPublic Service Pension

Regimes ("DEPSP") to manage sub-national pensions. 7 KPYv prfrnrmunep inaiiC'tarc* (qpp

Note that twenty-six municipalities have been targeted. However,, each one is unique. Hence, similar to PARSEP, some merging and self-financing of activities is expected. Consequently the number of municipalities established as 'indicators' varies across activities. * Acquisition of Hardwareand Software for SIPREV: installation of a small hardware/software equipment package in 23 municipalities. * Cadas.t.reLJpgr7p,ade:PRE PPV-AM,TJN suppovrtAed "rn-.oa i-n 23 rii'iintia * ActuarialEvaluation: analysis performed with PREV-MUN support in 23 municipalities inciuding.financiai diagnostic and reform proposai development. * Municipal Workshops andDissemination: carrying out of at least one stakeholder workshop in 26 municipalities. * Municipal Training: varticipation in two MPAS sponsored workshons and implementation of local training programs in 24 municipalities; identification of a rprmn%pmimt uipn1P(Ql fnw t-minn anA i X,. .~J **~ .,r

The 26 state capital municipalities ran a combined deficit of R$2. 1billion which accounted for 80% of tota aggregate municipal deficits of -2.6 billion ir, 1999. esUe same 2U plus Uue 23 largest municipalities with population in excess of 400,000--a total of 46 million urban inhabitants-account for about 96% of total municipai pension deficits. Pension deficits are large and growing in most municipalities. CY2000 data for Brazil's 26 state capital municipalities show four witn small pension surpluses while in the remaining 22 expenditures exceed contributions by anywhere from R$4 million in Macapa (Amapa State in northern Brazil) to R$66 million in Belo Horizonte, R$107-109 million in Salvador and Porto Alegre, R$565 million in Rio de Janeiro, and R$1.1 billion in Sao Paulo.

municipalities), inclusion of health insurance in the social security system (8), and inclusion of financial assistance (6). Only about 40% of all municipalities with pension systems are currently in compliance with pension reporting and administration requirements. In a two day project preparation workshop, municipal secretaries and pension agency chiefs from 22 of the targeted, capital municipalities corroborated the fiscal burden imposed by pensions and highlighted the poor state of computer equipment, systems, data bases, and lack of actuarial analysis. They also cited the lack of qualified personnel to address pension problems. It is presumed that the situation is no better in most of the 2,700 smaller municipalities also operating their own pension systems.

The absence of comprehensive, reliable municipal pension data is being remedied by DEPSP, the Department in MPAS created scarcely three years ago to monitor and evaluate sub-national pensions, provide technical assistance and, more recently, to validate compliance with new Federal legislation. The new legislative framework also establishes legal and actuarial reporting obligations that will allow the Government to gather the requisite data to supervise sub-national pension systems. PARSEIP played a strategic role in creating DEPSP and addressing these problems in states and PREV-MUN will replicate this work in municipalities. (Invemment

Hence they would only be possible following the fall, 2002 elections and would require broad based political support. In the absence of a new round of benefits reform, the Government has followed an interim strategy to improve pension regulation and management and strengthen the pension reform constituency. It has done so by first implementing important reforms in the legislative framework governing sub-national pension administration including imposing restrictions on use of pension funds, establishing reporting requirements and requiring actuarial balance. Second, it has undertaken to provide technical assistance to imnprove state and municipal pension management And third, it has built up MPAS's capacity to monitcor, evaluate, validate performance and provide technical assistance. It has done this with the support of multilateral institutions and especially the World Bank. Leg'islative Framework Reforms.

Among the more important advances were reduction of benefits, stricter eligibility requirements and the phasing in of the new (i) Complementary Pension regime (ii) requirement of individual accounts for pension participants and regulations regarding participant and public contributions establishment of actuarial and financial standards and requirements for pension funds (iii) based upon accurate cadastres requirement of regular reporting, publication of results and transparency (iv) MPAS validation of compliance, and penalties for non-compliance (v) restrictions on the use of pension funds for non-pension ends and on investment of funds in (vi) government instruments reimbursement by the Federal Government of pension liabilities assumed by states and (vii) municipalities (Compensacao Financeira) (viii) enhancement of the Government's role through MPAS to assure adeauate supervision, monitoring, validation of results, and provision of technical assistance.

Bank operations inc;lude PASEP and tuhe FederalPenson Reormn LIL, and LWO BanIk /SecaLs for nearly $1.4 billion in 1999-2000. PARSEP, has been an especially important catalyst in creating and strengthening DEPSP and financing state technical assistance. As part of its interim strategy, the Govenmment has decided it is time to address directly municipal pension problems and has called upon the Bank to adapt PARSEP to create a municipal project, PREV-MUN. 3.

How to address actuarialimbalances in sub-nationalpensionfunds? DEP'SP will provide technical assistance and fund cadastre upgrade, actuarial studies, development of reform proposals, and stakeholder dissemination efforts to support reform and build local reform constituencies. Depending upon the outcome of a PARSEP pilot, it may also help municipalities to evaluate and sell off assets with the proceeds going to pension funds.

How to assure that SIPREV and its modules can be maintained and upgraded as needed' including the provision of technicalassistance and training? DEPSP has decided to contract out this service to private companies while maintaining a core staff sufficient for project oversight and module development needs.

*

How to provide permanent, accessiblepension trainingfor sub-nationalgovernments? DEPSP will retain one of several foundations (FINATEC, FUBRA, CESPE) linked to the Federal University of Brasilia. to provide train-the-trainers and direct municipal training. The hope is that one of these could become a permanent purveyor of pension training.

C. Project Description Summary 1. Project components (see Annex 2 for a detailed description and Annex 3 for a detailed cost breakdown):

Component I: Institutional Strengthening of MPAS/SPS and Project Management This $2.1 million project component addresses institutional strengthening of MPAS--specifically of SPSiDEPS--required to manage PREV-MUN and carry out its mandate of monitoring, evaluating, validating and providing technical assistance to sub-national governments. Specific sub-components include the following. A. Provision of Technical Assistance. Following PARSEP's successful formula, a core group of consultants in information technology, actuarial science, and pension legislation will be retained at DEPSP to supplement MPAS staff and service municipalities during the project. Proiect Management Support. The DEPSP Project Executing Unit (PEU) comprising DEPSP B. staff and several project management consultants will be retained plus a financial management: specialist. The size of the team required to administer the program for 26 municipalities is based upoil PARSEP experience with a similar number of states. C. Technical Assistance for Municipalities--Logistics. Experience demonstrates that pension reform cannot be managed centrally but rather requires the continuous presence of MPAS specialists in the field. HenGe care has heen taken to ensure that resources are adeauate to sustain the nroiected level of field operations. A zmiil ($58,500) amoulnt of cnrnmputer equipnme.nt A^.nvisition of Hard.ware and Sonftwre.

laws, regulations, best practices and other materials relevant to sub-national pension management. F. Institutional Studies. Two important studies will be undertaken: (i) pension fund asset management that might also include asset evaluation and sale with proceeds going to funds, and (ii) needs evaluation and strategy for assisting the universe of municipalities operating their own pension systems. This latter study will be done around the time of the mid-term review and will draw upon the combined experience of PREV-MUN and PARSEP and administrative and actuarial compliance data bases. G. Trainine for SPS Staff. A small training program will ensure that MPAS staff are exnosed to best practices internationally and acquire the requisite skills to ensure that PREV-MUN makes use of the latest knnwledge and methodologies= H. SIPREV Development and Implementation.

comprises the costs of installation, maintenance, upgrade, training, and refinement and development of new Iuouuues.

Component i: InstituionulStrengtheningof MunicipalPension management A second component totalling $6.5 miiiion (65%) of the project total is dedicated to upgrading pension management in the municipalities. The sub-components are a follows. A. Acquisition of Hardware and Software for SIPREV. Small hardware/software packages valued at about $19,000 will be provided to each municipality to ensure that the pension agency has the requisite equipment to operate SIPREV and otherwise carry out the project. B. Cadastre Upgrade. At $2.2 million this is the largest sub-component and one of the pillars of the PARSEP/PREV-MUN approach. Each municipality will be provided with consultant services valued at $80,000 plus assistance from DEPSP specialists. The advantages for the municipalities of cadastre upgrade include accurate actuarial analysis, savings from elimination of unjustified benefits payments, and submission of reimbursable pension costs to the Federal Government under the Compensacao Financeira program.

C. Actuarial Evaluation. This is a second pillar. It includes financing an actuarial diagnostic--something legally required of all sub-national governments starting July, 2002--plus the development of proposals for achieving actuarial balance and reforming pension systems. D. MuniciDal Workshops and Dissemination. Stakeholder participation through municipalitv sponsored workshops and the dissemination of pension materials is an essential part of the PREV-MUN proamm The nmrpose is to dissezminate the PRFV-MUlN program, reponrt res.ults, providde knowledoe on best practices, advance reform proposals, and strengthen reformn constituencies. Each municipality will conduct two such workshops accon.panied by the prparation and dissemination of materials. E. Municipal Training. Two types of training are contemplated.

2. Key policy and institutional reforms supported by the project: PREV-MUN supports institutional reforms in sub-national pension management in the following ways: * Promotes professional pension management with reliable date and compliance with Federal laws through cadastre upgrade, SIPREV, legal and actuarial assistance and training. * Develops sub-national pension refonns based upon actuarial and financial diagnoses. * Supports reduction of fiscal burdens associated with pensions. * Strengthens MPAS/SPS so that it can carry not its legal mandate of sub-nationa- pnenon ninitMonrn evaluation, and provision of technical assistance.

RBpiefits-and taretpopunanion:

Most of the 26 targeted states are already running pension deficits that range from 5% to 21% of total receipts. This constitutes a huge drain on their resources and ability to undertake growth and poverty alleviation investments. Few have staffing or systems that permit adequate pension management to dimension their pension problems and develop solutions. Many are not able to comply fully with Federal legislation governing pension management and reporting. PREV-MUN will address these problems. Hence the:target population is first the municipal governments participating in the program and indirectly other municipalities who will benefit from the PREV-MUN experience and the assistance preferred by MPAS/SPS. Second, public officials enrolled in the pension programs will benefit from having pension fimds analyzed and actuarial and other problems addressed. Third- the nonulations of the municipalities--upwards of 20-30 million inhabitants--will benefit from the eventual reduction in pension hiirdens and improved liquifiity enabling resources to be nut intn other activitiss. 4. Institutional and implementation arrangements: The project executing agency will be MPAS. Within MPAS there will be a Project Coordinating Unit (rCU)and a Project Executing Unit (rPt u) wnose attributions are described below. Both units exist and both are managing Bank projects. A formal agreement ("portaria") will establish their respective roles and responsibilities regarding PRiEV-Muu implementation. Proiect Coordinating Unit (PCU). A PCU exists in the Executive Secretary Office of MPAS. It is charged with financial management/execution of the Ministry's projects. The PCU successfully manages the Bank's NVSS LIL and will soon assume responsibilities for PARSEP. PCU responsibilities are to * manage Project budgeting and financial control * orient the PEU (see below) regarding Bank guidelines and procedures * guarantee that Bank norms and procedures are followed * supervise and ensure the completion of the Project's physical, budget and financial chronograms * respond for audit and Project evaluation requirements * provide the Bank with financial and evaluation reports, statements of accounts and other reports as needed * ensure the implementation of PEU approved activities and procurement in accordance with the Onerations Manual. * ensure the payment of the Project's contracts and acquisitions.

D. Projert Ratinnala 1. Project alternatives considered and reasons for rejection: Pension Reform LnL. The LIL format was abandoned because (i) the Senate approved budget fi)r the first year

years, (ii) the new LIL requirements are very restrictive and do not allow for many of the activities to be carried out under PREV-MUN. GreaterAttention to Smaller Municipaiities. Tte Government has determined that it can address nearly

90% of the aggregate municipal deficit problem and thereby alleviate fiscal burdens affecting large populations (including many poor) by addressing first the state capital/largest municipalities. It iiarther believes that these municipalities, because of their relative sophistication, have a better chance of successfully implementing the PREV-MUN program and afterwards can serve as poles for replicating the approach. The Bank agrees with the client's approach and will consider pension reform impact upon the poor under a more appropriate AAA venue. The operation will include a study to determine the needs of municipalities of different sizes and will develop a strategy for delivering the requisite services. Larger Operation. PREV-MUN is modelled upon PARSEP, the highly successful pension reform LIL that

addressed the needs of 26 states. PARSEP success, the complexity of administering an operation with 26 clients, and budget constraints imposed by the Government resulted in a $10 million proiect. 2. Maior related nroiects financed by the Bank and/or other develoDment agencies (comnletedL ongoing and planned). Note that a survey of the Bank's social security loan portfolio was conducted to determine the relevance of initiatives undertaken elsewhere. Most of these operations were found to emphasize policy reform and address single, country wide social security systems unlike PREV-MUN which is modelled on the: successful Brazilian "State Pension Reform LL"(PARSEP). ^| rla !.

However, the eventual positive fiscal impact from improved pension management for the tareeted municinalities -and considering that the 26 state canitAl mumicinalities

account for some 800% of the aggregate municipal pension deficit of R$2.6 billion--could be quite cianifilent

"Replicators". MPAS has decided that it will identify and work to strengthen "replicators" to support sub-national pension agencies. Tnese could include groups associated witn municipal institutionai strengthening. Training. Permanent and accessible training venues are needed in the pension area. Because there is no formal government career path for pension specialists there are few courses available. MPAS will identify permanent training venues and verify if they are appropriate for sub-national governments. There are three Federal University of Brasilia foundations that could provide the desired training vehicle and one has already been used for PARSEP. 2,700 Municipalities. The question of how to assist the universe of municipalities of different sizes and needs will be studied with PREV-MUN support around the time of the mid-term review. It is expected that experience accumulated with two years of PREV-MUN (and PARSEP) plus access to legally required legal and actuarial reports will provide the necessary information to conduct a needs assessment, and develop recommendations.

4. Institutional: Within MPAS there will be a Project Coordinating Unit (PCU) and a Project Executing Unit (PEU) whose attributions are descrihed below and detailed in Section C-4. 4.1 Executing agencies: Project Coordinating Unit (PCU).

The PEU will be responsible for the technical execution of PREV-MUN. It also resides in MPAS, within DEPSP in the Secretary of Social Security (SPS) and on the same floor as the PCU. The PEU will comprise many of the same employees that are successfully managing PARSEP. The DEPSP team has successfully implemented PARSEP and the two operations are very similar in terms of management and procurement. It is experienced, well staffed, knows the Bank and its procedures and has earned the respect of state officials. Hence, the expectation is that this will be a very strong PEU. A

Stakeholder needs and concerns have been elicited and taken into account in two ways. First, PARSEP is well known among many municipal officials. Furthermore, DEPSP is continuously in contact with municipalities providing technical assistance in the legal, actuarial, cadastre, and SIPREV/systems support. Consequently, DEPSP has already acquired an understanding of municipal capacity and needs and these are reflected in project design. This is especially true in the legislative area owing to sub-national governments' obligation to comply with new guidelines governing the management of their pension funds and benefits regime. DEPSP has set up a website and nublishes the results of its validation exercise for each sub-national government. It knows which municipalities have submitted, which are in default, and, their nenri reire'q Iega! ff-rewnrI iS accentAle iinder the new fother guidelines.

workshops and training. Participants' views were elicited regarding their most pressing needs, priorities, and the appropriateness of the PREV-VIMUN design. Tne participanis were su-ongly supporuve of uie operation, and the current project design reflects their input. Nineteen letters of intention from mayors have been received to date. 6.3 How does the proiect involve consultations or collaboration with NGOs or other civil society organizations? Each participating municipality will have an obligation to conduct two stakeholder workshops. Budgets have been provided for the workshops and also for the preparation and dissemination of materials. The municipality will decide the timing of the workshops but it is likely that many will choose to launch their participation with a first stakeholder event and conduct a second in 2-3 years to present cadastre and actuarial results and debate reform proposals. These workshops are also a PARSEP requirement and have proven highly successful in informing NGO's and interested civil society and government officials of the program and its results. 6.4 What institutional arrangements have been provided to ensure the project achieves its social development outcor.,es?

This is a technical assistance operation focussing on institutional strengthening of MPAS and participating municipalities' pension management. Neither changes in benefits' regimes nor extension of coverage are

addressed. The most important social outcomes would be control of pension expenses through cadastre upgrade and strengthening of the municipal reform constituencies. The first is covered by a specific cadastre project component and the second by stakeholder workshops and publications. 6.5 How will the project monitor performance in terms of social development outcomes? Progress in each component will be monitored as part of normal supervision. Indicators are presented in Annex 1. 7.

F. Sustainability and Risks 1.

SustaOrnabUa+y:.

Project sustainability is assured owing to the following. (i) The legislation governing subnational pension systems management has recently been reformed providing a permanent framework with strict compliance rules. It requires sanitized cadastres, actuarial analysis and balance, regular reporting and compliance with administrative regulations including those governing pension funds management and the permissible benefits regime. PREV-MUN facilitates municipal compliance in each of these areas. (ii) PARSEP has successfully piloted methodologies in states that will be implemented in PREV-MUN. This is especially true of SIPREV which responds to sub-national government demand for a comprehensive electronic cadastre formnat to unify pension data managed by different government branches. SIPREV and the new actuarial and benefits calculation modules also respond to strong sub-national government demand for pension management tools.

(iii) Growing awareness of the fiscal burden imposed by pensions together with the Fiscal ResponibtfiOlitLy Law

the reform constituency. (iv) Fiscai incentives aiso contribute to sustainabiiity. SiPREV faciliiates the solicitation to the Federal Govermment for reimbursement of pension liabilities (Compensacao Financeira)and cadastre

upgrade can eliminate significant unwarranted payments.

- 16 -

In addition, MPAS has taken strategic decisions that will reenforce the permanence of its interventions. As a result, it is looking for permanent, accessible and self supporting venues for training and SIPREV maintenance. This becomes especially important considering that many of the 2,700 municipalities operating their own pension systems will need support. Regarding training, a University of Brasilia foundation will be retained to provide train-the-trainers courses and direct training in pension management. If successful it could become a permanent purveyor of pension training for sub-national governments. Finally, DEPSP has determined that it should dimension its staffing to provide technical assistance in the lega area -- ' -! sub-natonl -oen=et -- il . to-epspcifi_ request- ... other area. At belie_,e this will be possible with its current staffing levels. This proposition will be tested over the four year loan

DEPSP will finance much of first year activity with own resources and also leverage PARSEP funding to assist municipalities.

Aspec:s:

Pension reform is likely to cause concem among municipal stakeholders similar to what transpired in some states. However, once the PARSEP program was understood the problem disappeared. DEPSP missions, local stakeholder workshops, publications and disseminations of findings and proposals have been used effectively to dispel opposition in states and should be equally effective in municipalities.

Annex 2: Detailed Project Description BRAZIL: Municipal Pension Reform Project By Component: Project Component I - US$2.01 million

Component I: Institutional Strengthening of the MPAS/Secretary of Social Security and Project Management Sub-ComponentA: Provision of TechnicalAssistance

-

$432,000

Experience with PARSEP demonstrates conclusively that there is a huge demand for technical assistance across project components that can best be provided by maintaining expert consultants full-time at SPS. These consultants will work on and refine project sub-components and respond to requests for assistance from municipalities. Six consultants will be maintained for three years at a cost of $2,000/month/consultant which translates into $144,000/year and $432,000 for three years as follows. A- 1. Information Technology Consultants (2). These consultants will work on SIPREV systems develonment including modules Thev will also nrovide awmistance to municinalities to imnlement STPRF.V and the modules, training, maintenance and responding on technical issues and queries. A-2. Actuarial Consultants (2). The new social security legislation (see Annex 11) requires actuarially bala_nced pension f-"ri

continuously by municipalities for professional support regarding contracting of actuarials, compliance with legisiative requirem-n-ets, and to understaind the implications ofithe actuariai results produced. A-3. Legislative Consultants (2). Tne maintenance of two consultants fuli-time basically substitutes PARSEP Phase #3 which programmed $200,000/state for consultants to help with the development of a reform legislative framework in each state. Legislative advances provided the model legislative framework contemplated in Phase #3 and accompanying regulations that govern sub-national pension management. Sub-national goveunments also have lawyers in sufficient numbers to adapt local legislation to Federal statutes. What is most needed in the case of states (PARSEP experience) and municipalities is a core of expert lawyers on call to (i) provide clarifications regarding the new legislation and how it relates to existing sub-national legislation, (ii) provide technical assistance as needed to assist sub-national governments in adapting the new Federal laws, and (iui) validate the sub-national governments' legislative framework which is now part of MPAS's new compliance mandate. Note that the results of the validation exercise was published in the recently launched MPAS website, "CRP". Every state and municipal government will have its legislative framework evaluated and results Dublished. These consultants will also assist in the development of a model framework and technical assistance for adapting the Complementary Law (annmrval expected sonn) to the requirements of the Piscal Respoznsibility Law.

These professionals will provide technical assistance to municipalities during project launch when they will be required to develop and commit to an action plan. T-hey will also monitor the updating and implementation of these plans over the four year project period and generally assist municipalities with procurement and implementation matters while providing project management input and support for the various monitoring, evaluation and reporting efforts that must be carried out throughout the life of the project. The configuration of project management staff is based upon the PARSEP experience with 26 states. The following positions will be staffed -3 Project Management Consultants @ $2,000/month/consultant -1 Administrative Assistant for Project Management @ $1,000/month/consultant -l Auxiliary Administrative Assistant for Project Management @ $1,000/month/consultant B-2. Financial Management. The financial management of the project will be done through the experienced Project Coordinating Unit that is already managing the Bank's INSS LIL and that will soon assume responsibility for PARSEP. Consultant support for managing the system is estimated at $24,000/year for a three year total of $72,000. Vuh-n-mnonen,tt

Law n° 9.796 (the Hauly Law)-Financial Compensation

Financial compensation constitutes a settlement of accounts of the National Social Security Institute -- INSS, the Federal Government, and those states and municipalities that have their own p-erioin rpag,nies. lims sebLUUmnL Was ,nade n11 essab.ly WIUI Uih

which entitled states and municipalities to establish their own individual pension systems. As a result, many public employees who previously had fallen under the INSS pension system, migrated instead to one of the new regimes. Upon retiring, these employees become eligible to receive benefits from the new systems, instead of the INSS, despite contributions made to the latter. This has resulted in a situation where states and municipalities are obliged to pay for services they have not received nor been compensated for. This distortion is corrected by Law n° 9.796, of May 5, 1999, also referred to as the "Hauly
