Public-Private Partnership in Latin America. Learning from experience

In recent years, economic growth in Latin America has led to increased investment opportunities for the private sector, while legal transformation, regulatory and institutional processes have promoted and facilitated the implementation of new development projects. With this impetus, this new publication was drafted with the objective of conducting an analysis of the structuring and management process of PPP infrastructure projects, which makes it possible to generate conclusions and recommendations of interest for Latin American institutions involved in the execution of investments using this financing mechanism. Five case studies were selected based on several criteria, including geographical coverage, project type and uniqueness. The cases chosen are an urban public transport interchange hub in Madrid, two highway concessions in Costa Rica, an airport in Colombia, a municipal administrative center in Mexico and a prison program in Chile. The cases chosen for the book are diverse and innovative, with dynamic background stories that make it possible to extract the lessons learned.
