    The Role of Developing Country Firms in Infrastructure : New Data Confirm the Emergence of a New Class of Investors
    (World Bank, Washington, DC, 2008-06) Schur, Michael; Klaudy, Stephan von; Pushak, Nataliya; Sanghi, Apurva; Dellacha, Georgina
    Developing country investors have emerged as a major source of investment finance for infrastructure projects with private participation. This update of the article in 2006, shows that, indeed, during 1998-2006 these investors accounted for more of this finance in South Asia and East Asia and Pacific, and for more in transport across developing regions than did investors from developed countries. Even though the policy implications are not yet fully clear for policy makers, this development suggests a need to rethink the criteria used in selecting investors in schemes for private participation, which have been biased toward large international operators.

    The Role of Developing Country Firms in Infrastructure : A New Class of Investors Emerges
    (World Bank, Washington, DC, 2006-04) Schur, Michael; von Klaudy, Stephan; Dellacha, Georgina
    Developing country investors have emerged as a major source of investment finance for infrastructure projects with private participation. The potential role of this investor class is encouraging. For policymakers it suggests a need to rethink privatization design, particularly the criteria used in selecting investors, which have been biased toward large international firms. The growth in new private infrastructure firms also matters because it should reduce the risk of collusion and other anticompetitive practices. This paper discusses the role of developing country investors, and their investment across regions.
