Relevant points in infrastructure project finance in foreign countries

Abstract

The article aims to condense the relevant issues and dynamics of infrastructure project financing in foreign countries. To achieve the aim the article turns to dedicated sources and industry publications.

Infrastructure financing has come to stand at the forefront of economic policymaking in both developed and developing countries owing to its short- as well as long-term growth effects. The need for infrastructure financing encompasses both maintenance and new projects. Despite the overall growth in investment, proportional dynamics indicate otherwise. Even so, institutional investments are in part offsetting the lacking public funding, with the ever-growing gravity of private capital and yet unabating significance of public (national, state, municipal) funding. Likewise, setbacks that accompany infrastructure project execution are those of political variance, improvable project management, and risk exposure.
