Our work in Emerging Markets is focused on the role of the private sector, either alone or in partnership with the public sector, in the delivery of public services and economic development. In particular, we have built up considerable experience of these issues in the agriculture and infrastructure sectors. In addition, we have worked on issues related to the financing, delivery, and evaluation of global health programmes in developing country context.

CEPA provides advice on a range of issues, including:

Economic development and sector policy issues
Development of enabling environments to facilitate private sector involvement
Design and implementation of public private partnerships and other donor supported vehicles to provide efficient and effective delivery of goods and services which are either partially or mainly public good in nature
Development of organisational strategy and planning, governance, financial and operational aspects of public private partnerships and other donor supported vehicles

Structuring and implementation of concession contracts for the delivery of infrastructure - covering the raising of international or local finance or grants and provisions of transaction advice.

Review and evaluation, including impact assessments, of donor interventions/programmes
