| Summary: | Public-private partnerships (PPPs) hold
great promise for improving public services for the poor in
emerging markets. But charting the political waters,
balancing the needs of governments, consumers, investors,
and lenders, and making the transaction transparent and
sustainable are challenging tasks and not for the faint of

International Finance Corporation's (IFC's)
Infrastructure Advisory Department in its role as
transaction advisor to governments on more than 100 mandates. |
