Public-private partnership in Ghana

During the last couple of decades, the public private partnership (PPP) concept has gained grounds globally, and this is mostly realized in developing countries (Osei-Kyei and Chan 2017a). Many governments are now very enthusiastic about the concept, and different governments have varying motivations for adopting the policy. Nonetheless, developing countries have huge infrastructure deficit coupled with rapid urbanization growth; therefore, the PPP concept is seen to offer huge relief. However, it should be mentioned that despite the commitment shown by many governments in developing countries, more projects are yet to be fully implemented. Developing countries are currently facing numerous challenges including corruption, lack of transparency and competition, risk misallocation, poor value for money, public agitations, and political opposition (Osei-Kyei and Chan 2015).
