Library

As a global platform for knowledge, PPIAF offers clients a way to leverage best practices on public-private partnerships in infrastructure from every region of the world. PPIAF develops new knowledge through research and helps make existing knowledge accessible through its library, which includes PPIAF publications, PPIAF-funded reports, books, short notes, case studies, lessons learned, and other resources.

A Country Framework Report  (CFR) is a series of country-specific reviews that PPIAF supported aimed at improving the environment for private sector involvement in infrastructure. CFRs are prepared at the request of the government concerned and have the following three main objectives:

 • Describe and assess the current status and performance of key infrastructure sectors
 • Describe and assess the policy, regulatory, and institutional environment for involving the private sector in those sectors
 • Assist policymakers in framing future reform and development strategies, and assist potential private sector investors in assessing investment opportunities.
 

PPIAF has assisted several governments prepare CFRs in the past and these studies have led to some concrete outcomes and impacts in these countries.
