This book is essential reading for anyone involved in the private
financing of infrastructure projects and provides many important
lessons on what can go right and wrong. Martin Blaiklock

Illustrative case studies are provided throughout, many of them
replete with warnings against possible perils and pitfalls, while
revealing the steps that should be taken typically to ensure
success.
