This document is a summary and analysis of a benchmark index and learning tool that assesses the capacity of countries in the Asia-Pacific region to deliver sustainable public-private partnerships. The 2014 Infrascope evaluates readiness and capacity for PPP projects by assessing regulatory and institutional frameworks, experience and success, and the investment climate and financial facilities relevant for long-term PPP projects in 15 developing economies in Asia and the Pacific, four developed economies, and two subnational jurisdictions. The benchmark index and learning tool was built by, and its assessments made by, the Economist Intelligence Unit.
The 2014 Infrascope includes four developed countries that provide benchmarks of best practice and a guide to future policy development. The 2014 Infrascope also shows significant improvement in transaction flows over the past three years and identifies the important role of early development of regulatory and institutional frameworks in overall PPP market effectiveness.
