Guidance Note on National Infrastructure Banks and Similar Financing Facilities

FOR CONSULTATION

The draft Guidance Note on National Infrastructure Banks and Similar Financing Facilities is open for public consultation to capture your insights and feedback for the final version.       

We welcome your input and feedback by 25 April 2019 at comms@gihub.org 

Background

This new Guidance Note has been developed by the Global Infrastructure Hub (GI Hub) in collaboration with Cambridge Economic Policy Associates Limited (CEPA).

Purpose

This Guidance Note has been designed to assist governments interested in establishing, or reforming, a National Infrastructure Bank or a similar financing facility (NIB). The objective of the guide is to identify lessons learned from the examination of a wide variety of existing NIBs in both emerging markets and high-income countries, including institutions with an extensive history and those that have been established more recently.

With an overall aim of maximising the impact that infrastructure banks can have in delivering quality infrastructure projects, including through mobilising private capital, supporting project preparation and providing value for money for end users, the analysis has sought to identify some of the unique niches and roles that such institutions can occupy and play in support of government objectives and policies in these areas.
