ECONOMIC COST OF FOREIGN FINANCING

No 1999-01, Development Discussion Papers from JDI Executive Programs

Abstract: The conventional treatment by the economic appraisal of investments has been to disregard the particular terms of foreign financing as a benefit or cost. This approach is being called into question as the private provision of public services has become dominated by foreign investors and operators. Many of the BOT and BOO contracts are far from being transparent capital market transaction. This paper contains a methodology for introducing the measurement of extra costs or benefits attributable to the project because of prepared financing arrangements.
