The purpose of this article is to review recent international studies on ports that have entered into public private partnerships (PPPs). This article examines five articles covering ports in Columbia, Mexico, Brazil, the Caribbean (Cayman Islands), China, South Korea, and France. Divided as follows, the article includes: (I) a summary of each article; (II) a critique of the articles related to the countries referenced; and (III) an assessment of how this relates and/or applies to Ukraine. The analysis and assessment of each article should better inform progress towards PPPs and their use in ports in Ukraine. Based on five variables to assess PPP projects in this article: (a) the type of PPP (allowing for a plurality of PPP arrangements); (b) regulatory framework (with a supportive institutional arrangement for PPPs); (c) financial safeguards (delivering value for money against other options); (d) accountability; and (e) miscellaneous data (something that improves context and practical aspects), this article offers three key findings. First, enhance accountability and publicity. Second, improve market engagement. Third, correct implementation of legal and institutional frameworks. This study, according to its author, encountered the usual limitations: sample selection and access to data at different stages of the project’s completion. The sample is fair, comprising a diverse, representative pool of projects. Regarding access to data, the article found that publicity and reporting need to improve in the Caribbean. The author engaged with all main sources, especially local ones, at different stages of each project. PPPs in the Caribbean are not exempt when it comes to budgetary decisions.

Australia is just one of many developed countries facing the challenge of delivering value for money in the provision of a substantial infrastructure pipeline amidst severe construction and private finance constraints. To help address this challenge, this chapter focuses on developing an understanding of the determinants of value at key procurement decision points that range from the make-or-buy decision, to buying in the context of market structures, including the exchange relationship and contractual arrangement decision. This understanding is based on theoretical pluralism and illustrated by research in the field of construction and maintenance, and in public-private partnerships.

A fundamental benefit sought from Public Private Partnerships is risk transfer – or more explicit allocation of risks between the public and private partners. However, not all operating risks can be transferred or eliminated. The public partner retains residual risk and remains ultimately accountable for the delivery of public services. Sub-standard management of major change events can lead to poor value-for-money outcomes. In-depth insights are provided in this article into how the actual management of Public Private Partnerships may be carried out and dealt with by governments at critical junctures during the concession period. Key risks, issues and critical success factors are identified that can have profound effects on the achievement of intended outcomes. These considerations build upon existing knowledge, policy and guidance for Public Private Partnerships, both nationally and internationally, making this essay tangible and grounded for both academics and practitioners.

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are employed in many countries as an alternative method of public service provision in which partners from the public and private sectors share their resources, responsibilities, and risks.  Some well-justified factors that drive the partnership development are value for money and lack of budget funding.  As PPP drivers may be unique, thepaper surveys the reasons for PPP expansion in two transitional countries, Kazakhstan and Russia.  Based on detailed discussion of the commonly employed reasons for partnering (such as greater value for money, or lower total social cost associated with a PPP as opposed to contracting out a service), internal and external PPP drivers in Kazakhstan and Russia have been categorized and examined.  Among internal drivers, the need to attract private initiative and funding for upgrading the utilities and housing infrastructure is most influential because of enormity of the task for which governments lack resources.  The countries’ intention to align themselves with the requirements of perceived international best practices is yet additional influential driver of external nature.  The paper concludes that public policy in the two countries is the major driving force for PPP development although the value for money concept and transaction cost economics appear to be neglected.  The emerging PPP policy paradigm in Kazakhstan and Russia has facilitated PPP development in recent years, since 2005.  However, lack of reliable solutions and instruments for PPP formation and implementation significantly slows down PPP expansion.

Abstract: The revised Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) illustrates the long-term trans­formation in the way governments currently deliver public policies: steering, not rowing. Under a re­gulatory paradigm based on improving efficiency and best value for money, the 51 GPA Parties have reformed the previous GPA framework and expanded global procurement markets in accordance. Howe­ver, the figures of this structural policy trend have not yet been properly mapped. This research estima­tes on basis of the available data that the GPA parties cover round 26% (US$2,140bn) of their GGCE (US$8,220bn), whereby the global GPA coverage could potentially be expanded substantially (compare to global GGCE: US$13,100bn) on the long term.Keywords: public-private partnerships, world trade, market-formation, government procurement, GPA.Resumen: El Acuerdo de Contratación Pública (GPA) revisado ilustra la transformación de largo plazo en la forma en que los Estados desarrollan políticas públicas: guiar, y no remar. Bajo un paradigma regulatorio basado en la mejora de la eficiencia y el mejor valor por el dinero, los 51 Miembros del GPA revisado han reformado el marco legal originario y contribuido a expandir los emergentes mercados glo­bales de contratación pública. Esta investigación calcula en base a los datos disponibles que las partes del GPA cubren un 26% (2.140.000 US$) de su GGCE (8.220.000 US$), mientras la cobertura global del GPA podría expandirse de manera significativa (comparar con el GGCE global: 13.100.000 US$) a largo plazo.Palabras clave: partenariados público-privados, comercio mundial, formación de mercados, con­tratación pública, GPA.

Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) can be an effective way of delivering infrastructure. However, achieving value for money can be difficult if government agencies are not equipped to manage them effectively. Experience from OECD countries shows that the availability of finance is not the main obstacle in delivering infrastructure. Governance—effective decision-making—is the most influential aspect on the quality of an investment, including PPP investments. In 2012, the OECD together with its member countries developed principles to ensure that PPPs deliver value for money transparently and prudently, supported by the right institutional capacities and processes to harness the upside of PPPs without jeopardizing fiscal sustainability. Survey results from OECD countries show that some dimensions of the recommended practices are well applied and past and ongoing reforms show progress. However, other principles have not been well implemented, reflecting the continuing need for improving public governance of PPPs across countries.
