HIERARCHY OF NEEDS: for successful Investment in Infrastructure People with Expertise to Execute (i.e. similar deal experience, sector knowledge) Private Sector Buy-in (i.e. market /project size & identifiable pipeline and bankability / government’s long term commitment) Political Will (i.e. political will & buy in / financial discipline / clarity within domestic laws & procurement process / coordination between government departments & agencies / good public consultation / reliance and use of experienced international advisors)

Still few examples. • HR: No international advisors. • RO: Government too impatient. Did not listen to advise. Had to restart PPP program. • PL: Problems with Tolling + Road Fund + Government. Now most being done on Government Budget again. • SK: Ambitious PPP programme. Push by President. Post Financial Crisis and national election all projects being reviewed.
