Assess risk allocation
Using analysis of previous PPP projects, the new tool allows stakeholders to assess the allocation of risk between private and public partners in projects and includes analysis of 12 types of projects within the transport, energy and water and sanitation sectors.
Nick Merritt, global head of infrastructure, mining and commodities at Norton Rose Fulbright, commented: ‘The overriding issue that governments and private companies face in PPP transactions is the allocation of risk, and how much each party should take on. The tool that we have developed with GI Hub deals with this and provides a useful source of information to assist governments with their understanding of typical PPP risk allocation arrangements.’
