Foreign Investment, Infrastructure, and Public-Private Partnership in ASIA

English

Abstract

This study investigates private public partnerships (PPP) in Asia by panel analysis. We use data from the World Bank. We use the Panel Ordinary Least Squares (POLS) method. We found that foreign direct investment is more directed at developing real sector businesses rather than infrastructure development using the PPP system in ASIA countries. The lack of infrastructure in developing and low-income nations encourages the existence of public private partnerships to provide infrastructure in ASIA.
