To help improve public service delivery, many countries have established funds to help finance their public–private partnership (PPP) programs.

This paper examines the international experience with three types of funds: Each type has a very precise purpose and is designed to address a specific constraint to developing bankable PPP projects. The analysis reveals that funds must be designed well to address specific problems and that dedicated funds can provide better incentives, concentrate expertise, and promote PPPs. With this knowledge, ADB is helping the People’s Republic of China investigate the use of funds and other facilities for providing government financial support to PPPs.
