Three things that attract Three things that attract private sector investment ! private sector investment !
• Positive regulatory environments
• Financial incentives and returns
• Opportunities for good corporate citizenship
Private Investors Will Avoid . . .Private Investors Will Avoid . . .• Ineffective regulations and frameworks – commercial uncertainty
• Political instability
• Revenue controls / capping tuition fees – can heighten commercial risk where marginal returns exist – can jeopardize commercial objectives, including capability to invest in higher quality inputs – can cause insufficient financial returns for servicing debt, or to provide fair returns to shareholders
• Uneven playing fields – where loans to Govt. hybrids & SOE’s are made on ‘soft’ / ‘favored / not-real-profit basis – where vested interests are impervious to change
• Inefficient / inconsistent / uneven approval processes – where private investors are disadvantaged
Public Private Partnerships Public Private Partnerships Success FactorsSuccess Factors
Public Private Partnerships Public Private Partnerships Success FactorsSuccess Factors
• No revenue controls (eg. capping tuition fees) • (Foreign) – no limiting equity & ownership• Even treatment of public and private providers• Meets market demand – (eg. growing demand for
skilled labor)• Incentives for private investment and participation
– financing and provision• Positive regulations for private investment
– more ‘enabling’ and less ‘controlling’
