Growth and trade rely heavily on efficient transport. Without it, private sector development stalls.
Modernizing ports, airports, roads, railways, and urban transit is critical—especially in developing countries, where poor infrastructure can mean the difference between progress and persistent underdevelopment.
Rapid urbanization further strains transport systems, with rising populations, vehicle ownership, congestion, inadequate public transit, and environmental pressures posing mounting challenges.
IFC supports governments in developing sustainable, bankable transport projects—airports, seaports, roads & rail—through expertly structured public-private partnerships (PPPs).
