2. Consulting Services in Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) | LDK Consultants - J2C Water
Change is the only constant factor and volatility in the global markets is a given,
driving the public sector into dire financial straits and quite often to bankruptcy. In
the midst of such conditions, one of the few viable solutions for development of
infrastructure is Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) – contributing with the capacity
and the financial leverage of the private sector to develop infrastructure used by
citizens worldwide.
PPPs are not a panachea to infrastructure development, but with good planning
and awareness from both sides, it might become a good option for infrastructure
development and operations.
