Abstract

Chapter 4 examines public-private partnerships (PPPs) that are characterized by complex, nonstandard, capital intensive projects with public good characteristics. It presents a conceptual framework to dissect and integrate systematically the institutional mechanisms put in place to ensure the clear division and allocation of rights and risks and the management of incentive conflicts between the public and private partners in PPPs. This conceptual framework is then utilized to analyze the performance of the process and institutional mechanisms that were used to finance, deliver, and operate the Melbourne CityLink project.
