Governments need to find ways to finance new and improved infrastructure projects that are sustainable, and yet will not put too much strain on their fiscal positions.
A new book on infrastructure financing in Asia and the Pacific provides innovative solutions on how to meet the region’s infrastructure financing gap by taking a fresh look at bond markets, public private partnerships, and alternative arrangements for private infrastructure financing.
The book explores ASEAN+3’s efforts in developing local currency bond markets to provide long-term local financing, while providing financial resilience. It also examines the use of green bonds to finance sustainable growth.
