IPPP – Risks and opportunities An economic perspective
Abstract
This article analyzes some of the issues raised by institutionalized public-private partnerships
in an economic perspective. We demonstrate that although they may address some of the
main limits of purely contractual public-private partnerships, such as the issues of control,
know-how transfer, or additional financial cost, they may induce some intrinsic risks, related
to alterations of the contractual incentive structure and judicial challenges. Based on
economic theory, we stem some recommendations and comments about the adequacy of legal
requirements with economic normative views.
