Contractual disagreements and disputes are common in PPPs during both construction and operational periods.
his paper introduces a model describing the full financial realities of FSM projects; a methodology for quantifying the costs, direct effects, economic spillover effects and a toolkit to calculate their net present values and the overall program’s internal rates of return.

This report argues that development finance has largely been directed towards centralized systems of wastewater management this has resulted in large populations being excluded from proper wastewater collection and treatment services whereas spillover effects of proper sanitation, which include an increase in property tax revenues, can help to offset the costs of fecal sludge management.
This paper looks to determine the factors for the successful implementation of transit-oriented development (TOD) in Asian cities
We introduce and apply the concept of spillover effects to high-speed rail (HSR) development to formulate the economic impact on increasing the regional tax revenue.
The Asian Journal Special Issue on High-Speed Rail (HSR) Services in Asia provides an overview of the impacts of HSR infrastructure in Asia and explains how investment in HSR brings significant socio-economic changes.
This paper compares two approaches to the evaluation of mega transport project success: the iron triangle and the holistic approach approach.
Infrastructure projects in the Netherlands, such as the construction of roads, bridges and tunnels, have become larger and more complex in recent years. This thesis is about these kinds of infrastructure projects, about the challenges and tensions that go with them, about how people experience them and how they look jointly for solutions, and how they succeed or sometimes fail.
This publication outlines the rationale, the characteristics, and a plan for the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the African Development Bank's guidelines for the aviation sector.
For this year s edition, we reached out to more than 10,000 people in 10 major global cities to ask about their everyday experiences with infrastructure services. How satisfied and safe do they feel with their roads and bridges, rail services and utilities? How engaged are they in the decision-making processes for new projects that can improve lifestyles and drive new economic growth?
Public-private partnership (PPP) contracts are long-term and they may have a duration of 20 to 30 years or more. Today, where technologies and social priorities (such as views on climate change and sustainability) are changing at an accelerated pace, it perhaps comes as no surprise that changes to PPP contracts through renegotiations are common.
As 2018 comes to a close, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support this past year. The Global Infrastructure Hub (GI Hub) had an ambitious agenda for 2018 and we are pleased to say that, with the help of our partners and stakeholders, we have been able to achieve some important milestones.
One of the primary responsibilities of governments the world over is to provide public services to their citizens, including through infrastructure projects.

Thus, it is often necessary to invite a private sector party to jointly provide the services in partnership with the public sector.
