ABSTRACT

Despite the unprecedented level of infrastructure projects in developed and developing economics, there still remain a number of challenges affecting the delivery of infrastructure development and investment. In particular, the majority of developing countries in Africa have a number of their mega-projects funded by China. Some of the countries, particularly those in developing economies use the public-private partnerships (PPPs) strategy for the delivery and execution of the different types of infrastructure projects in sectors such as transportation, water, communications and social. More so, the success of the projects’ delivery is heavily dependent on the supportive enabling environment in which these projects are executed and underpinned by strong regulatory and legal frameworks.
