| description |
The report is about the private
participation in infrastructure database. Energy and
telecommunications drove most of the year's growth.
Energy had growth of 96 percent, reaching its second highest
level since 1990. Telecommunications saw an increase of 13
percent to its highest level ever. The sector accounted for
47 percent of investment in 2007. Transport had a 7 percent
decline, but the level in 2007 was still the second highest
for the sector. Water investment amounted to US$3 billion,
well below the peak of 1997 but within the US$2-3 billion
range of the previous three years. The number of private
infrastructure projects implemented in 2007 fell by 7
percent to 288. But the situation varied across sectors. The
number of projects rose by about 8 percent in energy and in
water and sewerage, while it dropped by 12 percent in
telecommunications and by more than 25 percent in transport.
The report concludes, continuing the trends of the previous
five years, private activity in 2007 was more evenly
distributed across regions than it had been during the boom
of the late 1990s. |
