ABSTRACT

The political, economic and social changes of the last two decades in countries with a transition economy, as well as the intensive process of globalization, have become the grounds for bringing together government and business communities. For the majority of countries, the past few years have been a struggle to achieve an effective strategy for economic development with the help of competitive advantages through the development of key elements of national infrastructure. This has led the state to increased interest in private companies, particularly in the use of their capacity to finance, build, and implement special projects aimed at developing the country’s infrastructure. Thus, the public-private partnership (PPP) is developing rapidly and is of great interest throughout the world. The scope of public-private partnerships in foreign countries is very diverse and represents a wide range of business models and relationships. Within these partnerships, resources drawn from the private sector can vary: from funds to know-how and managerial practice.
