Public–private partnerships (PPPs) can play an important role in addressing the huge infrastructure investment shortfall in Asia and the Pacific. ADB encourages project financing in cooperation with the private sector in all its core operations.
Infrastructure needs in developing Asia and the Pacific will exceed $22.6 trillion through 2030. Available funding from traditional sources falls far short of the investment need. With countries in the region facing a huge shortfall in investment, along with its negative consequences on economic growth, measures are urgently needed to meet the additional funding requirements. PPPs can play an important role in addressing this massive requirement.
The private sector is often considered to provide greater efficiency than the public sector when managing infrastructure projects and delivering infrastructure services. By investing in new technologies, bringing innovative solutions, and encouraging more transparent organizational structures, the private sector has the potential to improve operational efficiency as well as asset and service quality.
To support PPPs in the region, ADB has a dedicated team of advisors with vast infrastructure finance experience to assist both public sector clients and private sector sponsors across a wide range of sectors.
ADB provides an integrated and holistic approach to PPPs:
