| Summary: | The case study of the concessioning of
the Ifrikya railway is based in part on several recent
actual case studies on railway concessioning in Sub-Saharan
Africa. However, several features of the general context and
data have been changed for pedagogical purposes. The
Republic of Ifrikya should therefore be considered an
entirely fictitious country and the description of
conditions there should not in any way be construed as
mirroring the situation in any country that has recently
entered into a railway concessioning arrangement. (Also, the
positions ascribed to the World Bank representatives in the
case study should not necessarily be considered a reflection
of the policy of this institution and should not, under any
circumstances, be interpreted as an indication of the
positions that it is likely to take in a situation similar
to the one described in the case study.) After the
instructions for preparing the case study and the questions
for discussion are presented in the introduction, the case
study is structured as follows: Section 1 describes the
Railway. Section 2 details the overall structure of the
concessioning of the Railway. Section 3 presents the
concession agreement for railway operation. Section 4
evaluates the technical proposals. Section 5 evaluates the
financial proposals and discusses the award of the
concession. Section 6 embodies the provisions for monitoring
and oversight of the concession. |
