Global evidence suggests better
infrastructure governance results in more efficient spending
and better growth outcomes at the national and subnational
levels of government. Several studies (International
Monetary Fund (IMF), 2015; OECD, 2015; World Bank 2014;
OECD, 2013a) demonstrate that improvements in infrastructure
governance can lead to substantial efficiency enhancements
and enhanced infrastructure productivity over the life of
the asset. Conversely, poor governance is a major reason why
infrastructure projects fail to meet their timeframe,
budget, and service delivery objectives. This report
assesses the governance of the infrastructure sectors in
Panama. Building on a dedicated infrastructure governance
framework (see Section II), the report looks at the sector
specific arrangements in electricity and water as well as
the cross-cutting framework for infrastructure planning,
procurement and delivery including for PPPs. The main
recommendations of the report are presented in Section I
below. Aimed at addressing Panama’s infrastructure
governance bottlenecks, the recommendations specify the
suggested timeline and priority. |
