Book SynopsisThis book offers a unique framework to understand how public institutions and private investors can collaborate to sustain long term investments (LTIs), with a specific focus on public-private partnership for infrastructure, blended finance mechanisms, and impact investing.
Trade Review‘The business of business is being redefined before our very eyes: inclusion, sustainability, impact and ESG are now integrated into most investment decisions. Much more needs to be done as Agenda 2030 will not be met until “all hands on deck”. This book can serve as a good starting point for this critical collaboration.’ -- Royston Braganza, Grameen Capital
‘This book highlights the importance of activating private capital to close the infrastructure gap and creating stronger collaboration between the public and private sectors. This will help to drive economic recovery in the short-term whilst driving longer-term economic and social outcomes.’ -- Marie Lam-Frendo, Global Infrastructure Hub
‘This book is an excellent reference to university and master students, executives and civil servants, academic researchers and many others that are keen to learn more about enabling long-term investments and public-private collaborations.’ -- Iliyana Tsanova, European Commission
