PPI projects in developing countries by sector, 1990-2006 The number of projects also showed a recovery in 2006, thanks to transport, which had its highest number of projects ever, and to some extent to telecoms. Energy projects remained at a stable level, though at only half the peak in 1997. And water projects were down slightly from the peak in 2005.

Investment commitments and number of PPI projects in developing countries by sector, 1990-2006 • Why the divergence within sectors between trends in investment commitments and project numbers? Several factors explain it: • New projects in 2006 accounted for 48% (US$54 billion) of the investment commitments that year. Projects implemented in 1990-2005 accounted for the other 52%. • Telecoms accounted for most of the investment in previously implemented projects. New telecom projects in 2006 represented just 18% of the year’s investment commitments in that sector, while telecom projects closing in previous years accounted for 82%. • In transport the average project size in 2005-06 was twice that in 2002-04. • In energy, investment commitments in 2006 were sustained primarily by six large projects (those over US$800 million), which accounted for 45% of the year’s total for the sector. • In water new private activity focused on smaller projects.

Investment commitments to PPI projects in developing countries by project type, 1990-2006 Three main types of projects—greenfield projects, concessions, and divestitures—have driven the growth in investment commitments. 2006 US$ billions Source: World Bank and PPIAF, PPI Project Database.
PPI projects in developing countries by type, 1990-2006 As in the previous three years, most of the new projects in 2006 were greenfield projects or concessions. Projects Source: World Bank and PPIAF, PPI Project Database.
Investment commitments to PPI projects in developing countries by region and project type, 1990-2000 and 2001-06 Across regions, greenfield projects accounted for the largest share of investment commitments in 2001-06. The only exception was Europe and Central Asia, where divestitures still dominate. In most regions greenfield projects just increased their share of investment commitments. But in Latin America their predominance in 2001-06 represented a major shift from the 1990s, when divestitures accounted for most of the activity. 2006 US$ billions 2006 US$ billions Source: World Bank and PPIAF, PPI Project Database.

Investment commitments to PPI projects in developing countries by sector and project type, 1990-2000 and 2001-06 Greenfield projects accounted for the largest share of investment commitments across all infrastructure sectors in 2001-06 except water, where concessions remained predominant. In telecoms and transport the predominance of greenfield projects represented a major shift from the approach most common in the 1990s—in telecoms, from divestitures, and in transport, from concessions. In energy, by contrast, greenfield projects merely increased their share of investment. 2006 US$ billions 2006 US$ billions Source: World Bank and PPIAF, PPI Project Database.

Methodological notes on the PPI Project Database • Data are reported on a commitment basis, not by disbursement. • The database includes only projects that have reached financial or contractual closure. • For management and lease contracts, a contract authorizing the commencement of management or lease service must exist. • For concessions and greenfield projects, financial closure is defined as the existence of a legally binding commitment of equity holders or debt financiers to provide or mobilize funding for the project. The funding must account for a significant part of the project cost, securing the construction of the facility. • For divestitures, the equity holders must have a legally binding commitment to acquire the assets of the facility. • Investments in infrastructure projects are classified as one of two types: • Investment in physical assets. The total cost of developing or expanding the facility during the contract period is entered as investment data in the year of financial closure. Privately run telecom projects and energy utilities are exceptions. For these, annual investments in facility expansion are entered in the year of the investment when information is publicly available. • Payments to the government—expenditures on government assets such as state-owned enterprises or rights to provide services in a specific area or to use radio spectrum. These include divestiture revenues, license fees, and canon payments. Where divestitures are phased, the investments are recorded in the years in which the transactions take place. • More information can be found at http://ppi.worldbank.org/
