Abstract: This paper provides a simple general equilibrium analysis of privatization, exploring its real effects. They derive from the expansion of risk-sharing opportunities (within an incomplete markets setting) that are created by the addition of a market in the public project property rights. The principal conclusion is that an optimal combination of voucher and share issue privatization can implement the first-best.
