 The World Bank aims to contribute with sound economic foundations to infrastructure policy making. The ‘infrastructure economic’ approach emphasizes the links between infrastructure service provision, economic growth, and poverty alleviation; while providing instruments of dialogue between different sector specialists, policy makers, and macroeconomics. In this respect, the World Bank has established a priority to develop and pilot analytical tools to assess fiscal policy and infrastructure needs.
The World Bank’s strategic approach of testing the operational value of analytic tools in country specific applications aims at providing concrete policy recommendations to overcome potential financing gaps with both (1) better public spending and management; and (2) creative schemes for the promotion of private participation by using WBG financial instruments and regulatory knowledge.
