The Program will leverage WBG know-how in mobilizing additional sources of funding and financing for infrastructure by involving private investors. The Program is closely working with universities, development partners and Governments to share lessons learned and real-world examples. Under the right circumstances, Governments can mobilize additional sources of funding and financing for infrastructure by involving private investors.
The Program is organized around four components:
(i) Addressing Infrastructure Gaps through PPPs;
(ii) Creating the Enabling Environment for Infrastructure Finance – including the legal, regulatory, and institutional environment to mobilize private capital for infrastructure;
(iii) Adopting Financing Instruments to deliver Private Capital – including credit enhancement, insurance, guarantees, local currency finance;
(iv) Preparing Transactions to Meet Market Requirements and Achieve Best Value for Money.
