Summary: | This report was commissioned to draw
lessons from the experiences with public private
partnerships (PPPs) in the transport sector in Europe and
Central Asia (ECA) countries. The report will review
experiences to date with private participation in the
transport sector with a primary focus on experiences in the
ECA countries and Europe. To carefully prepare and select
the most desirable PPP projects during the most severe
economic downturn since the Second World War, availability
of regional best practices would be helpful. This report
will provide guidance for successful PPP implementation and
will hopefully encourage public authorities to critically
evaluate their project designs. The lessons from this study
apply regardless of the financial crisis. While the dire
economic environment will considerably impact the current
PPP pipeline, the fundamental success factors for these
projects will remain the same. During times of economic
turmoil, evaluating past investment projects can provide
lessons for stimulating the next period of economic growth.
The report discusses the impact of the financial crisis
separately in annex B. |
