Public-Private Partnership / Privatization

The IFC PEP-MENA Public-Private Partnership and Privatization initiative provides advisory services to governments on private sector participation in infrastructure, public services, and the restructuring of state-owned enterprises. The objective of the program is to expand access and improve the quality of services in infrastructure, such as power, transport, water and sanitation, as well as, more recently, in health and education. In particular, the initiative aims to:

• Increase access and improve the quality of public services
• Alleviate the budgetary constraints of governments
• Respect consumers’ affordability to pay for public services
• Attract private sector know-how and investments through the structuring of bankable transactions, while ensuring cost recovery and financial sustainability to the sector

The initiative is active in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia.
