INTRODUCTION

The Public Private Partnership (PPP) market has steadily gained momentum over the years. By fostering genuine partnerships between the public and private sectors, countries can effectively address infrastructure gaps through enhanced access to private capital and expertise.

PPP initiatives enhance efficiency and service delivery, tapping into new technologies and knowledge, which ultimately lowers infrastructure costs for governments and creates more fiscal space.
