Bangladesh, with population over 160 million in a total area of only 150,000 km2, is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Its capital, Dhaka, with a population of 17 million in the Greater Dhaka area is one of the world’s most densely populated cities. Bangladesh’s national GDP has been following a steady growth path of more than 6% per year over the last decade, and road traffic in Dhaka soared by more than 130% over the same period. Roads carry over 80% of national passenger traffic, providing the backbone of the transport sector.
The Rampura–Amulia–Demra Expressway (“RAD” or the “Project”) is a key project of Bangladesh’s Public–Private Partnership Authority (PPPA) and Roads and Highways Department (RHD). The project will serve as a gateway connecting central Dhaka to existing national highways to Chittagong, Sylhet, and the eastern regions of Bangladesh.
PPPA and RHD will shortly invite interested private sector parties to pre-qualify for the opportunity to Design Build, Finance, Operate, and Maintain the RAD project. A compelling opportunity exists for leading consortia to:
• Provide a much-awaited congestion relief road to traffic entering Dhaka, by developing a 13.5km expressway connecting National Highways N1 and N2 to the city center.
• Capitalize on Bangladesh’ economic and urban growth by providing critical connectivity infrastructure for the country
• Manage and operate the road over a 25-year concession
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has been appointed as the Transaction Advisor to structure and tender the RAD as a PPP project. The expression of interest process for the project will commence shortly. The attached market awareness brochure provides preliminary information on the Project and the upcoming tender.
We look forward to feedback and participation from potential bidders. Contact information for the transaction advisors is provided in the brochure. Thank you in advance for your interest.
Public private partnership in development of road networkGokul K Prasad
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are arrangements between governments and private companies for infrastructure projects like roads. India aimed to increase infrastructure investment to 5% of GDP, but only achieved 3.5%, with the private sector contributing 0.9%. PPPs in road networks can provide private financing, efficiency, and risk transfer. Common PPP models for roads include build-operate-transfer (BOT) toll-based and annuity-based models. Successful Indian PPP road projects include the Golden Quadrilateral highway network and the Chennai Outer Ring Road. However, PPPs in road development face risks such as delays in land acquisition, construction issues, traffic uncertainties, and changes in law.
The Indian construction market has significant potential for growth. Currently valued at $80 billion in 2010, the sector contributes 6.9% to India's GDP. While a few large companies account for one-third of growth, the highly fragmented industry also includes over 25,000 small players. Major opportunities exist in expanding power generation, roads, railways, ports, airports, telecom, and irrigation. The government is targeting large investments in infrastructure through public-private partnerships to support continued development.
India's infrastructure industry is growing rapidly due to large investments from the government and private sector. The document discusses various types of infrastructure such as transportation, energy, communications, and social infrastructure.

It notes that India has the second largest road network in the world at 3.34 million km, with national highways accounting for 2% of the total length but 40% of traffic. The government is investing heavily to expand and upgrade the network, allowing 100% FDI, and seeking funding from international organizations. Major players active in developing highway projects in India include both domestic companies and international firms partnering with Indian partners. The outlook is positive as economic growth and rising vehicle ownership will increase demand for improved road infrastructure.
Vietnamese infrastructure is in urgent need of investment as the country will require $160 billion for infrastructure projects by 2020. With declining development assistance and increasing government debt, Vietnam is looking to private partnerships to help fund these projects. The government has created a legal framework to encourage private investment through public-private partnerships (PPPs), but there are still concerns about how much risk private partners will take on and how committed the government is to supporting these projects. Successful PPPs will require thorough feasibility studies and capacity building to prepare quality projects that attract long-term private financing for Vietnam's infrastructure needs.
India has the second largest road network in the world, spanning a total of 4.7 million kilometres. Roads in India bear about 85 per cent of the country's passenger traffic and 60 per cent of freight traffic.
The value of total roads and bridges infrastructure is expected to touch US$ 19.2 billion by 2017. The key factors responsible for driving demand in the sector have been the rise in two-wheeler and four-wheeler vehicles and increasing freight traffic. Rising per-capita incomes and a growing middle class coupled with easier access to finance and a wider price range of vehicles have boosted car sales. During 2007-14, the sales of passenger and commercial vehicles are expected to increase at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15 and 13.5 per cent to touch 3.5 and 0.85 million respectively.
Infrastructure spending by the government is expected to touch US$ 1 trillion in the next Five-Year Plan (FY13-17). To promote the sector, the government has allowed 100 per cent foreign direct investment (FDI) under the automatic route. Development of national highways through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is expected to remain the key focus area for the government. During the next five years, investments through PPP are expected to be over USD41 billion for national highways and around USD10 billion for state highways.

The Foreign Education Providers Bill, once approved by the Union Cabinet, is expected to open up significant investment opportunities by US companies and institutions in the higher education space in India. With the passage of this bill, foreign education providers will be able to set up independent colleges which will be treated as deemed universities, offering independent degrees without having to seek affiliation from an Indian university or tying up with one in partnership. This in turn will raise the standard of higher education available to greater numbers of Indian students.
IMaCS Virtus Global Partners US-India Investment monitorIVG Partners
In the first quarter of 2010, there were eight acquisitions by Indian companies in the US and over 16 investments into India by US companies. There was a significant increase in energy related investments such as Essar's acquisition of Trinity Coal for $600 million, IFC's investment in renewable energy company Auro Mira, and Reliance's discussions with Atlas Energy for stake in Marcellus Shale natural gas operations.
While information technology remains the dominant theme for Indian companies acquiring US assets, investments into India from the US were predominantly in the nature of stake purchase rather than mergers or acquisitions. Key transactions included AT&T's purchase of stake in Tech Mahindra and Matheson's acquisition of K-Air Specialty Gases.

Us Bound Acquisition By Indian Companies 2009IVG Partners
Low valuations, bankruptcy auctions, and distress sales characterized more than half of the US-bound acquisitions by Indian companies in 2009. Lower growth projections, lack of bank financing, and decrease in US wages due to the recession drove valuations lower and created significant value buying opportunities for Indian Companies. According to a report released by IMaCS Virtus Global Partners, a New York based advisory and banking firm, there were 75% fewer US-bound transactions from India in 2009 compared to that of the previous year. Most transactions were less than $50 million in size compared to the three billion dollar plus transaction sizes seen the previous year. This reflects how Indian companies adapted to the new economic realities while being still opportunistic about global growth.
One of the key aspects of this year’s transactions involves distress and bankruptcy on the part of the sellers. Examples include S Kumar’s acquisition of Hartmax, Lupin’s acquisition of US rights for Antara, Cosmo’s acquisition of ACCO’s print finishing business, and Piramal’s acquisition of RxElite.
“As the Indian economy continues to grow at a relatively faster rate compared to the US, we will see more distress related acquisitions in the US by Indian companies in 2010” said Anil Kumar, Managing Director of IMaCS Virtus Global Partners. He added “Continued lack of financing, survival pressures and private equity sales has created a unique opportunity for Indian companies to acquire synergistic US companies at a much lower valuation”.
With 8 US-bound acquisitions in 2009, information technology was the most acquisitive industry in India accounting for 53% of the US-bound transactions by volume. Within this industry, engineering design, specialized business process, and enterprise resource planning sub-segments were attractive for acquisitions, given their untapped offshore opportunities and relatively higher margins. While mid-size companies, such as Quest Global, Persistent Systems and KPIT Cummins sought to add new service capabilities through US-bound acquisitions, large-size companies, such as Infosys BPO and Sasken Communication sought to strengthen their current capabilities. ICRA Techno Analytics Limited (ICTEAS) and Rediff sought to acquire customers and enter into new segments.
The Indian pharmaceuticals and healthcare industry sector accounted for over 25% of the transaction volume with four US-bound acquisitions in 2009. This sector has been characterized by special situation and distressed related value buying opportunity.
Indian Airport and Ground Support Equipment Market - Opportunities for US Com...IVG Partners
With a total market size of $5.6 billion and an average growth rate of 18 percent per year in passenger and air cargo over the last five years, the civil aviation sector in India has witnessed a rapid development.
This growth will spur increased investment in airports and ground equipment. The present market size for airport equipment and ground support services is estimated to be $360 million.
As a support service to the aviation industry, India’s Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) sector is estimated to grow at 10 percent and reach $1.17 billion by 2010 and $2.6 billion by 2020.
Another promising sub-sector in the airport equipment and ground-handling services continues to be technology-driven communication and ground services. Analysts also estimate that there will be a need for 8,000 pilots by 2020.
Indian Energy Market Opportunities for US CompaniesIVG Partners
With a generation capacity of 141 GW, India has the fifth largest electricity generation capacity in the world . India’s Transmission & Distribution (T&D) network of 6.6 million circuit km is the third largest in the world.
According to the Integrated Energy Policy report released by the Indian government, estimated energy requirements will reach approximately 950,000 MW in the year 2030. The government has been promoting public - private partnerships to meet the estimated $1.2 trillion investment required over the next 25 years to provide electricity to consumers at an affordable cost. The U.S. continues to be one of the largest exporters of generation and transmission equipment to India along with Germany, Japan and the U.K.
Given these conditions, there are excellent prospects for North American companies in energy efficient compressors, boilers, turbines, combined cycle power production, heat recovery technology, process control systems, hydraulics, cogeneration equipment, meters, sensors/ controls, heating/cooling (HVAC) systems, lighting units, pumps, appliances, steam systems/generators, and related IT and energy services. As the demand for Transmission & Distribution equipment is expected to grow rapidly, North American power equipment suppliers will also find significant sales opportunities in power distribution transformers, high voltage power cables, relays, conductors, capacitors, circuit breakers and related equipments.
Indian Retail & Franchising Market Opportunities for US CompaniesIVG Partners
The Indian retail and franchising market is growing rapidly due to rising incomes and an expanding middle class. By 2025, India will become the fifth largest consumer market globally, surpassing Germany. There are significant opportunities for US companies in sectors like retail, education, apparel, food services, and healthcare. India has over 300 malls and 1,500 supermarkets, and retail is expanding beyond major cities into smaller towns. Major international brands are entering India through partnerships, joint ventures, and franchise agreements. Virtus Global Partners provides advisory services to help US companies capitalize on opportunities in the Indian market.
Indian Water and Wastewater Treatment Market - Opportunities for US CompaniesIVG Partners
With a market size of over $4 billion, the Indian water and wastewater market is growing at a rate of 10-12 percent every year. Imports constitute approximately $110 million of the $690 million market for municipal and industrial water treatment equipment. The U.S. is India’s principal source of imports of water treatment equipment, with an estimated share of 40 percent. U.S. companies will find opportunities in sanitation, urban water supply improvement and municipal wastewater treatment. Additional opportunities exist in providing consulting and design services to the Indian water industry. In the area of water treatment, U.S. companies can joint venture with Indian firms to offer integrated solutions in water treatment. These solutions could include performing feasibility studies, designing, technical consulting and providing operation and on-line maintenance services.
The bottled water segment has recently established itself as a significant area of growth with a market size of $280 million and growing at 25-30 percent per year.
US-bound Acquisition by Indian Companies Oct 2009IVG Partners
The document analyzes US-bound acquisitions by Indian companies in the first three quarters of 2009. It finds that there were only 10 such transactions, a 78% decrease from the same period in 2008. Most deals were less than $50 million and driven by distressed acquisition opportunities. The slowdown was caused by lack of financing and lower demand/wages due to the global recession. Top target industries were IT, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. The report discusses challenges for future deals and considers financing, distressed opportunities, and cost-cutting as key factors.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?
Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.
Every business, big or small, deals with outgoing payments. Whether it’s to suppliers for inventory, to employees for salaries, or to vendors for services rendered, keeping track of these expenses is crucial. This is where payment vouchers come in – the unsung heroes of the accounting world.
