This series showcases how the World Bank Group supports the development and implementation of public-private partnerships. This support comes in the form of public sector loans, private sector finance, sector and transaction advice, guarantees, and output-based aid.
On April 29, 2010, the Central Bank of Haiti (Banque de la République d’Haïti or BRH) signed an agreement with Vietnam’s largest mobile telephone opera- tor, Viettel, to significantly expand telecommunications services in the earth- quake-ravaged country. The public-private partnership is expected to mod- ernize Teleco, help improve the company’s technical and financial capacities, modernize its infrastructure, and provide new services to its customers.
