 I'm Luke Bisbee and I'm here to talk about unlocking infrastructure financing. As someone who works on the engineering side of infrastructure, one of the things I guess that struck me most, governments around the world have effectively run out of money to spend on these large-scale infrastructure projects. Three trillion a year expenditure on infrastructure globally and a one trillion dollar infrastructure deficit. How is it that we're going to actually stimulate private investors to get involved in these projects? One of the things that keeps coming up is the various risks associated. One of the things that prevents the public-private partnerships is a lot of the unknown risks, both the economic risks and the political risks that go along with that. Public-private partnership makes sense not only from a, we've run out of money point of view, but it also makes sense because of the various skill sets of the players involved in a public-private partnership as well as the various motivations or incentives that are in place. The private sector, very efficient, can run projects, manage projects, manage the funds very efficiently, do what they do best, and of course, in a large-scale infrastructure project, you can generate income for that private partner, but you also have the government who have a vested interest in the performance of the infrastructure that's created in the long term. So basically, you use the incentives and skills of both parties in the best possible way.
