Some Concerns Traditional PERs mostly assess budgetary spending Infrastructure has been neglected in PERs In AFR, out of 54 PERs budgeted bet.FY02 and FY07: 28 having Transport Components 25 having WSS Components 2 having Oil and Gas Components Solutions are country driven How to use PERs to learn about the micro-macro linkages Why include Infrastructure in PERs?
What drives the issues in I-PERs? • 4 general concepts (e.g. expenditures, financing, efficiency and management)… • … country specific issues

What are the Methodological Lessons? • Data Availability and Quality: A Problem • Records/Accounting, Misallocation of Expenses • Infrastructure Sector Nuances • One size does not fit all, e.g. roads vs. energy vs. water • Fragmentation of Infrastructure Provision • Institutional Setting Matters • Central Government, Local Governments, Public Enterprises • Overlapping Sources and Use of Public Funds • Own Investments and O&M, Subsidies, PPP, Guarantees • Cheap Money? Role of Multilaterals increased focus on maintenance?
What are the Lessons?(Emerging) Policy Challenges • Quantity of (Public) Spending Fiscal discipline and coverage of fiscal targets • Quality of Public Spending Budget Rigidities and Integrity, Efficiency • Country Institutional Capacity Governance and Risk Management Financial Market Capacity
Emerging Issues – Food for Thought • Public Expenditure Management in Infrastructure: • The PEM system: institution, expenditure and income mapping • Diagnosis and Recommendations • Public Spending in Infrastructure and Macro-economic Balances: • Country Affordability and Fiscal Space • Infrastructure for Growth • Distributional Impact of Infrastructure Spending
