| Summary: | In 2011 the Ghanaian government issued a
policy establishing Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) for
the purpose of implementing infrastructure projects and
improving the capacity of services provision. A World Bank
Mission visited Ghana early in 2012 to assess the legal and
practical feasibility of participation in PPPs at the
sub-national level of the Government and the possibility
that private commercial banks can provide non-sovereign
financing to such PPPs. This report will present a summary
of the available information on local governments and
financial markets in Ghana, and identify potential
infrastructure investments that could later be supported
directly or indirectly by the International Finance
Corporation (IFC) sub-national window, such as with bank
guarantees, non sovereign loans, equity or other means. This
report also discusses the legal framework for financial
operations of SOEs. |
