- The Gambia Public-Private Partnerships Program: High Level Viability Analysis of Priority Projects430.27 KB
Document Summary:
This report presents the findings of a screening of public investment projects in The Gambia. The objective of the screening is to identify projects that are eligible for implementation in a public private partnership (PPP), and that can be started up in a relatively short term. These “fast track” PPP projects are intended to demonstrate the PPP is feasible in The Gambia, and to serve as an inspiration for the roll-out of PPP projects in other sectors. The experiences with the “fast track” projects (both positive and negative) can be used for the further refinement and optimization of the PPP framework in The Gambia.
Document Details:
The project screening is part of the second mission of the Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF) to develop the PPP framework in The Gambia. It builds on the results of the first exploratory mission which took place at the end of 2012 and in the beginning of 2013.
This report consists of three chapters (the present introductory chapter not included).
The next chapter discusses the impact of macroeconomic conditions on the opportunities for PPP projects in The Gambia.
The candidate fast track projects are presented and analysed in Chapter 3. On the basis of the findings of the analysis recommendations are made with respect to the selection of fast track projects and follow-up actions.
The main conclusions are recapitulated in Chapter 4
