<title>ABSTRACT</title>
<p>Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects are being implemented by governments for
similar reasons across the globe, such as removing the responsibility of funding the
investment from the government´s balance sheet, introducing competition, benefiting
from the expertise, experience and technology of the private sector that would lower
the project delays and cost overruns. Despite sharing common motivation factors in
pursuing PPP projects, the development trends, models used, legal context and
legislations differ from one country to another. Depending on country’s needs and
political atmosphere, governments decide on the sector, where they want to use PPP
and the appropriate PPP model to execute their projects. In this study, a comparative
study is conducted to underline main differences and similarities between PPP practices
in different parts of the world. The comparisons are based on diversification of
infrastructure needs and investment sectors, legal context and PPP models used. This
study investigates how use of PPP projects differs from one country to another and
regions in the world. Similarities are also analyzed to summarize the state of the art of
PPP practices to provide a global approach.</p>
