Public Private Partnership (PPP) is a partnership between the public and private sector for the purpose of delivering a project or service traditionally provided by the public sector.

Most countries in Asia have embarked on reforms of their infrastructure sectors during the past few years. But despite the active wooing of private investors by Asian governments and their efforts to reform this sector, the number of infrastructure projects with private participation has been limited. For example, relatively few independent power provider (IPP) projects have been commissioned, and very few build-operate-transfer (BOT) projects in water, transport, or ports have reached financial closure. The reasons for this slow progress have been well documented in the proceedings of various power industry seminars and in other industry publications. Private developers, however, need to recognize that the environment for private investment in Asia has been changing rapidly over the past few years and that attractive opportunities are becoming available to private investors.

Under PPP arrangements, risks are transferred to the private sector on the basis of a monetary return for accepting those risks. There is a balance to be struck between minimizing the cost to the taxpayer, while at the same time providing the returns required by the private sector, under the bidding process, for undertaking the project and its associated risks. A well managed competitive process is essential to achieving this balance.
