Between 2000 and 2005 infrastructure
made a net contribution of only 0.3 percentage points to the
improved per capita growth performance of Niger, one of the
lowest in Sub-Saharan Africa. Raising the country's
infrastructure endowment to that of the region's
middle-income countries (MICs) could boost annual growth by
about 4.5 percentage points, mainly by improving the
condition of the road network. Niger has made significant
progress in some areas of its infrastructure. Important
reforms liberalizing the water supply and information and
communication technology (ICT) sectors have boosted
performance. In particular, reforms in urban water are among
the most promising on the continent. Increased competition
in the ICT market has contributed to the rapid expansion of
mobile services. NIGELEC, the national power utility, has
enhanced its performance. The Nigerien portions of regional
corridors are in relatively good or fair condition. Air
transport connectivity has improved. Niger has the potential
to close this funding gap by tapping alternate sources of
financing or adopting lower-cost technologies. There is
plenty of room for private sector participation in
Niger's infrastructure sectors, in particular ICT.
Meanwhile, the adoption of alternate lower-cost technologies
in the water supply, power, and road sectors would reduce
the financing gap by almost a half ($219 million). |
