Abstract
In 2010, 36 infrastructure projects with
private participation reached financial or contractual
closing in seven low and middle-income countries, involving
investment commitments of US$10.9 billion. Infrastructure
projects implemented in the 1990-2009 period attracted new
investment of US$4.3 billion, bringing total investment
commitments to infrastructure in the region to US$15.2
billion in 2010. The activity in 2010 represents a 9 percent
decline by investment and 45 percent drop by number of
projects compared with 2009. Investments in new projects
fell by 9 percent and in projects implemented in previous
years by 10 percent compared with 2009.
