Legislation of PPP in BiH is fairly dispersed and positio- ned at different levels of alignment with the EU acquis. In this sense, there is a need for harmonization, where of great benefit could be the planned adoption of the law on PPP at the level of the FBiH entity.

The need to improve the quality of public services is, in any case, beyond doubt, and the lack of public funds fur- ther emphasizes the importance of developing cooperation between public and private sector.

Procuring Infrastructure Public-Private Partnerships 2020 is designed to help governments improve their PPP regulatory quality. By benchmarking the regulatory frameworks of economies around the world against internationally recognized good practices in procuring PPPs, this assessment identifies areas for improvement in the preparation, procurement, and management of PPPs.

In order to implement targeted policy guidelines adopted at the Economic and Financial Dialogue in May 2015, Republika Srpska particularly points out that it has improved its framework for budget management, by adopting the Law on Fiscal Responsibility in Republika Srpska, which set the fiscal rules and measures, and established the Fiscal Council of Republika Srpska. At the same time, through the 2016 budget, we have tried to improve the public expenditure planning system, which will create fiscal space for capital investments in the coming period.

Procuring Infrastructure Public-Private Partnerships 2018 is designed to help governments improve their PPP regulatory quality. By benchmarking the regulatory frameworks of economies around the world against internationally recognized good practices in procuring PPPs, this assessment identifies areas for improvement in the preparation, procurement, and management of PPPs.
