World Economic Forum
Strategic Infrastructure
Mitigation of Political & Regulatory Risk in Infrastructure Projects
World Economic Forum, 2015
Aperçu
Public and private entities can collaborate more effectively to deal with critical global infrastructure needs.
Recommendation
Infrastructure drives all economic output, yet the world faces a $1 trillion shortfall in infrastructure spending every year. In this clear, accessible report, the World Economic Forum, in partnership with the Boston Consulting Group, highlights the political and regulatory hurdles that public-private partnerships (PPPs) often encounter in infrastructure projects. The study outlines current best practices and provides real-world examples of successful PPPs in action. While the study does not promote specific policies, the omission is reasonable, given that investment landscapes and infrastructure needs vary dramatically across countries and regions. getAbstract suggests this objective overview to senior officials making strategic decisions on infrastructure, as well as to investors, developers, executives and leaders of nongovernmental organizations.
