Course Overview

Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a transformative mechanism to address the global infrastructure gap, estimated at $15 trillion by 2040 (World Bank, 2020). Governments worldwide increasingly rely on PPPs to leverage private sector expertise, financing, and innovation in delivering critical infrastructure and public services. This Comprehensive PPP Financing and Project Development course integrates two essential dimensions—PPP Financing, Contracts, and Project Development and Public-Private Partnerships: Methods and Applications—to provide a holistic understanding of structuring, financing, and managing PPPs successfully.
PPPs enable governments to overcome fiscal constraints while ensuring efficient project execution. According to the OECD, countries utilizing PPPs report 20-30% cost savings compared to traditional procurement models. However, successful PPP implementation requires a deep understanding of financial structuring, risk allocation, legal frameworks, and stakeholder engagement. This course equips professionals with the strategic insights needed to navigate these complexities.
Key Highlights of the Training:
Global Best Practices: Learn from real-world case studies of successful and failed PPP projects, including lessons from the UK’s Private Finance Initiative (PFI) and India’s Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) in highways.
Financial Structuring: Explore equity-debt models, blended finance, and multilateral funding mechanisms critical for bankable PPP projects.
Risk Management: Master techniques for identifying, allocating, and mitigating risks across project lifecycles.
Contract Design & Negotiation: Develop expertise in drafting enforceable PPP agreements while balancing public and private interests.
Regulatory Compliance: Understand international PPP frameworks and their adaptation to local legal environments.
The course also addresses emerging trends such as green bonds, digital infrastructure PPPs, and AI-driven project monitoring, ensuring participants stay ahead in a rapidly evolving sector. By the end of this program, attendees will be equipped to drive sustainable, financially viable, and socially impactful PPP projects aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
