CBI Members hear PFI market is on road to recovery
CBI members recently heard the Treasury's Charles Lloyd set out the prospects for
the private financing and provision of public services.
In the second of a series of CBI breakfast seminars on public-private partnerships
(PPPs) on 15 July Charles Lloyd, Head of Public Private Partnerships at the Treasury,
described the state of the market for PPP deals - particularly private finance initiative
(PFI) contracts - and explained to members how the Treasury Infrastructure Finance
Unit (TIFU) is supporting new projects and providing much needed market tension.
The market for PFI/PPP deals is recovering after a dramatic decline in 2008, helped
by slowly increasing confidence and more flexible terms for project finance arranged
between partners. PPPs will continue to play an important role in improving the
UK's public service infrastructure and the Treasury is keen to gather new evidence
from providers of the benefits of partnership working and the success of new models.
