PPIAF Annual Report 2020
For over 20 years, PPIAF and its partners, particularly governments, donors, and international development institutions, have worked to build the capacity, regulatory, and institutional framework necessary to stimulate private sector participation (PSP) in infrastructure. PPIAF’s work helps its clients work with the private sector to continue providing financing and operating infrastructure services when systems and economies are under unprecedented strain. The pandemic is not the only challenge facing emerging markets. The same institutions need to be prepared for slower onset challenges that do not appear as pressing, but are equally critical, such as climate change and state-building in fragile, conflict-affected economies. Ensuring that good governance, robust institutions, and smart public and private investment strategies are in place will make a difference in meeting and overcoming these challenges. This Annual report lays out PPIAF’s contributions to a socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable future in the context of these global complexities.
