This paper identifies that the required resource flows to satisfy new demand while maintaining service for existing infrastructure amounts to $836 billion or 6.1 percent of current gross domestic product per year over the period 2014–20. The annual infrastructure investment gap for emerging markets and developing economies is $452 billion per year, which implies that emerging markets and developing economies should almost double their current spending. The paper also estimates that half of the spending should be allocated to maintenance of existing assets. Acknowledging the challenges to compare infrastructure investment estimates across different methodologies, the authors recognize this result as a lower bound estimate and compare the results with others available in the literature. 2015-09-23T20:46:20Z 2015-09-23T20:46:20Z 2015-09 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2015/09/25057696/infrastructure-investment-demands-emerging-markets-developing-economies http://hdl.handle.net/10986/22670 English en_US Policy Research Working Paper;No. 7414 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper
