New private activity in infrastructure
in developing countries declined in the first semester of
2011, but remained strong and continued to be highly
selective, according to data from the private participation
in infrastructure project database. Most of the new activity
was concentrated in a few countries, particularly India, and
Greenfield projects. In the first semester of 2011, 117
infrastructure projects with private participation reached
financial or contractual closing in 20 low and middle-income
countries. These projects involved investment commitments
(hereafter, investment) of US$42.9 billion. Such level of
activity represents a decline of 8 percent by investment and
8 percent by number of projects from the level reported in
the first semester of 2010. Although investment declined
from 2010, private activity in the first semester of 2011
remained high when compared with previous periods and was
the fourth highest level since 2000. |
