The Role of Development Banks in the Financing of Public-Private Partnerships

Year: 2019

Content-Type: Report

Description: Development banks are being increasingly viewed more as an infrastructure finance tool in emerging economies. Even so, many of them have been traditionally dedicated to the financing of production sectors and others have not yet started participating actively in the PPP market. One of the ways in which development banks can contribute toward advancing PPPs is through financial and non-financial instruments that, directly or indirectly, help to fund, finance or reduce risks associated with PPP construction and operation. This technical document has been prepared based on the presentations made and results of the meeting on “The Role of Development Banks in the Financing of Public-Private Partnerships,” held in Madrid, Spain on May 20, 2019 as part of the Forty-ninth Regular Meeting of the ALIDE General Assembly. The PPP meeting was sponsored by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).
