Public Investment, Infrastructure & Innovative Finance

We help governments improve public investment management, plan and finance infrastructure, mobilise private capital and develop sustainable financing aligned with national development priorities.

Challenges we address

Situations where organisations typically ask us for help.

  • Projects are not selected consistently

    Investment projects are chosen without rigorous appraisal, so infrastructure budgets are spread thin.

  • Limited fiscal space for infrastructure

    Debt and budget constraints limit how much government can finance from conventional sources.

  • PPPs create hidden fiscal risks

    PPP commitments are taken on without clear risk allocation or fiscal commitment controls.

  • Climate finance is hard to access

    Green bond, green sukuk and climate budget tagging frameworks are not yet in place.

What we do

  • Public Investment Management

    Investment planning, project appraisal, selection, portfolio oversight and implementation governance.

  • Public–Private Partnerships

    PPP frameworks, project preparation, risk allocation, fiscal commitment controls and transaction readiness.

  • Sovereign Finance & Debt Management

    Debt management strategies, financing options, debt sustainability analysis and creditworthiness improvement.

  • Climate & Green Finance

    Climate-responsive investment, green bond and green sukuk frameworks, and climate budget tagging.

  • State Assets & Investment Funds

    Public asset management, asset registers, and governance of sovereign and public investment funds.

  • Infrastructure Governance

    Investment oversight, procurement governance, financial controls, performance monitoring and delivery assurance.
