In 2010, 25 water and sewerage projects
with private participation reached financial or contractual
closure in seven low and middle-income countries, involving
investment commitments of US$1.8 billion. In addition, a
second partial divestiture of a water utility in China
raised US$516 million, bringing total investment commitments
for 2010 to US$2.3 billion. That investment remained in the
US$2 billion to US$3 billion range of the last six years.
However, by number of projects, private activity in 2010
declined by 34 percent compared with 2009, reaching the
lowest level in the last 15 years. The lower activity in
China accounted for most of this decline. Overall,
investment was highly concentrated in a few projects. The
three largest projects (one water treatment plant in Mexico,
a wastewater treatment plant in Egypt, and a partial
divestiture of a water utility in China) accounted for 76
percent of investments. |
