PRIVATE PUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS IN URBAN WATER SUPPLY SECTOR: A STUDY OF THE REGIONAL TRENDS Asanga Gunawansa, Lovleen Bhullar and Sonia Ferdous Hoque

ABSTRACT Historically, public utilities have been mainly delivered by the public sector. However, as a result of financial and technological constraints faced by public sector entities in developing infrastructure facilities and due to management related inefficiencies in the public sector, various alternative governance mechanisms have been considered by governments in developing public utility infrastructure and providing the related services to the end-users. Consequently, for nearly three decades now countries have relied on the procurement model of public-private partnerships (PPP) to finance, develop and manage infrastructure facilities in the water sector. In order to analyze the viability of PPP as an alternative governance model for water, it is important to examine a sample of PPP projects from around the world and analyze the reasons for their successes and failures. For this purpose, Institute of Water Policy, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore, has undertaken a research project to compile a database of PPP projects in the urban water supply sector in different regions (Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, Australia and Middle East and North Africa). This paper presents a brief analysis of PPPs as a water governance architecture based on the study of 672 PPP projects from the said database, the selection being made on the basis of availability of data, and presents the preliminary findings on current usage of PPP for water governance.

1. INTRODUCTION Traditionally, a formal public authority or authorities (local, regional or national) has been responsible, partly or fully, for the provision of water services (including infrastructure development and funding, operation of the supply system, billing and collection of tariffs - if they are raised, and system management and maintenance). Such entity also retained full

ownership of the related water infrastructure. In this scenario, private sector involvement was considered inappropriate given the public good and basic need characteristics of water supply, the inherent monopolistic tendency of water systems due to economies of scale in service provision and the externalities involved (Johnstone and Wood 2001). Although there are examples of successful public water utilities, such as Singapore, there are several other cases where public management of urban water supply has not been successful. This can be attributed to a variety of reasons such as the lack of financial capacity, the absence of technology and management skills to develop, maintain and operate urban water facilities, and the inability to cater to the rising demand for new water connections as a result of rapid population growth in urban areas. Especially in developing countries, governments have found it difficult to finance expensive engineering solutions with scarce public funds, and difficult to continue government subsidies offered to water users given the resources required for financing and operating urban water facilities. Further, politicization of personal appointments and

management and other bureaucratic weaknesses in public administration have also rendered many public water facilities unsustainable. As a result, the effectiveness of public management as water governance architecture has been questioned. The reduction in financial assistance from international development agencies for infrastructure development projects, which are totally controlled by public sector entities in developing countries, has also led to the search for alternative water governance architectures. In this context, private sector participation in the water governance process has been considered and promoted in several countries. 2. ROLE OF PRIVATE SECTOR IN PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE Two alternative mechanisms have been considered for private sector engagement in the provision of urban water supply: total privatization of public facilities and public-private partnerships (PPPs) (Ford and Zussman 1997). Total privatization enables governments to

Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2004761

transfer the total responsibility of developing, managing, and providing public services to the private sector, whereas PPP enables governments to invite private sector entities to finance and develop infrastructure projects without losing state control over the regulatory aspects of service delivery, including the pricing of the services provided by the infrastructure facility (Savas 2000; Gunawansa 2001; Abdul-Aziz 2007). Total privatization of public infrastructure facilities that provide public services at heavily subsidized prices (by the government) was considered politically controversial. Further, governments were hesitant to subject certain facilities to total privatization due to reasons such as national security. Thus, PPPs became the popular option. In Europe, private investment in public infrastructure can be traced back to the 18th century (Kumaraswamy and Morris 2002). However, the increasing adoption of PPPs in the late 1990s was due to the success of PPPs in the United Kingdom (Harris 2004). The development and refinement of private finance initiative (PFI) by the United Kingdom in 1992, as one of a range of government policies designed to increase private sector involvement in the provision of public services, led to the renewed international interest in PPPs. Since then, many countries around the world have either embarked on or considered the adoption of a PPP programme (Harris 2004). PPPs are based on the idea that the private sector is better positioned to generate the capital investment required to undertake network rehabilitation, maintenance and expansion. The

private sectors potential for increased efficiency is also emphasized. In practice, however, there may be other reasons for the introduction of PPPs, including loan conditionalities imposed by international development banks. In short, a PPP is a procurement method which involves private sector supply of infrastructure assets and services that have traditionally been provided by the public sector. According to Khanom (2009), there is no precise and commonly accepted definition of PPP. This is the result of the diverse interests and objectives of the public and private parties in entering into PPPs as well as the different needs of the entities defining PPPs. The following table shows the different interpretations given to PPPs by four different countries.

The Canadian definition appears to focus on the cooperative venture between the public and private parties and the appropriate allocation of resources and risks. This indicates that PPPs are looked at as partnering arrangements between parties with equal bargaining power. Similarly, the UK definition focuses on compatibility between the parties and sharing of responsibilities, risks, resources, and profits.

The Singapore definition focuses on PPPs as a long term relationship between public and private sectors which enables the public sector to involve the private sector in providing services to the people. This definition does not give any indication as to the real need for the public sector to enter into PPPs. Further, in Singapore, PPPs are viewed as a source of specialist private sector expertise to stimulate an exchange of ideas and to bring more international players into the domestic market (KPMG 2007). According to the Government of Indias definition of PPP, the government grants a concession to the private sector. The public sector has limited engagement in the partnership due to financial constraints and lack of modern technologies and the private sector is required to finance and develop the project and offer services in return for payments. 3. PPPS IN URBAN WATER

Private involvement in water supply has a long history. In the United States, historically, private ownership and provision of water, and not public ownership, was the norm. It was only in the latter half of the 19th century that private water systems in the United States began to be municipalized because private operators were found to be inequitable when providing access and service to all citizens or making necessary infrastructure investments (Wolff and Palaniappan 2004). In its strict sense, privatization implies a full divestiture or the sale of public assets to a private operator, which is rare in the water supply sector (except England and Chile), which represents the furthest point on the private sector engagement spectrum (see section 3.1). Otherwise, privatization is said to have taken place when a specific function is turned over to the private sector and regulatory control remains a public sector responsibility. On the other hand, a

public-private partnership describes an arrangement where the governments and private companies assume shared responsibilities for the provision of water supply. In many countries where total privatization of water, a public good, is considered a sensitive issue, the preferred mode of engaging private sector in water governance has thus become PPP. Based on data published in the Pinsent Masons Water Yearbook 2011 2012, Figure 1 shows the number of new PPP contracts awarded each year for water supply since 1991.

Figure 1: Number of new PPP contracts awarded each year in the last two decades. (Source: Pinsent Masons Water Yearbook 2011 2012) 3.1 Spectrum of PPP Models

There exists a spectrum of PPP models for urban water supply depending on several factors, including the distribution of decision and property rights and risks and incentives between the public and private entities. (i) Service contract: A private entity provides specific services, such as leak detection, meter reading, billing or collecting invoices, and water quality measurements, for a short time period. The fees are fixed per unit of work. The private entity is required to make very limited capital investment, and these are short-term contracts. This form of PPP allocates the least responsibility to the private operator. The government retains ownership, control and responsibility (and risk). (ii) Management contract: A private operator manages and maintains the water facility for the contract period without any investment obligations. A management contract can be used to bring in new management systems, organizations and skills, or as a preliminary step to restructure a dilapidated utility before a concession. The government compensates the private operator (costs-plus-fee). The government retains most of the operational and

commercial risks, though some risk-sharing may be built into the contract using performance bonuses or contingent fees. (iii) Lease contract: The government leases the right to operate and maintain a water system, and to collect user charges to a private operator, and the latter is compensated with an agreed portion of the revenues. The private operator takes on the operational risk but the public authority retains ownership and responsibility for system finance and expansion, and replacement of major assets, and it recovers parts or all of its costs from its own share of user charges. The lease holder may also administer investment funds as agent to the municipality, without taking related risks. In several African countries with substantial French influence, affermage contracts are common. Lease and affermage contracts differ mostly in the way the commercial risk is shared between the operator and the owner of the contract. In a lease, the private

operators fee depends on the amount of tariff collected from customers vis--vis the specified lease fee payable to the public. In an affermage, on the other hand, the private operator and the public authority share the collected revenue and the private operator is paid an agreed-upon affermage fee for each unit of water produced and distributed (Budds & McGranahan, 2003; World Bank, 2006). (iv) Greenfield contract: The private entity finances, designs, constructs, and operates the water infrastructure for a certain period of time to fulfill private economic interests, that is, to pay the capital debt and earn a reasonable rate of return from the operating revenue. This is followed by transfer of ownership to the government at no cost or an agreed upon price. The government usually provides revenue guarantees through long-term take-or-pay contracts for bulk supply facilities or minimum traffic revenue guarantees. The widely used Greenfield contracts in the water sector are: (a) Build, own, operate and transfer (BOOT) or Build, operate and transfer (BOT): The private entity builds and operates a new water facility, for a specified period, at its own risk, and then transfers the facility to the government at the end of the contract period. The private entity may or may not have the ownership of the assets during the contract period.

(b) Build, own, and operate (BOO): The private entity builds a new facility at its own risk, then owns and operates the facility at its own risk. (v) Concession (or reverse BOT): The public authority transfers ownerships and control of the entire water system, which is already constructed, to a private operator for a given period. The private operator assumes responsibilities for operation and maintenance as

well as additional investment and service obligations. The operator bills and retains user charges for the concession period and the government retains ownership of the assets. The following three types of concession agreements are usually agreed between the public and private parties: (a) Rehabilitate, operate, and transfer (ROT): The private entity rehabilitates an existing facility, then operates and maintains the facility at its own risk for the contract period. (b) Rehabilitate, lease or rent, and transfer (RLT): The private entity rehabilitates an

existing facility at its own risk, leases or rents the facility from the government owner, then operates and maintains the facility at its own risk for the contract period. (c) Build, rehabilitate, operate, and transfer (BROT): The private entity builds an add-on to an existing facility or completes a partially built facility and rehabilitates existing assets, then operates and maintains the facility at its own risk for the contract period. (vi) Joint venture: The private company forms a legal entity with the public sector, and both parties share responsibilities and investment obligations. The municipality can share ownership with private shareholders. The joint venture company itself may either own the assets or (most often) be given a franchise by the local government. (vii) Divestiture: A private entity buys an equity stake in a state-owned enterprise through an asset sale, public offering, or mass privatization program. The private stake may or may not imply private management of the facility. There are two types of divestiture: (a) Full divestiture: The government transfers 100 percent of the equity in the state-owned company to private entities. This could thus be interpreted as a total privatization of a state owned facility. For example, ten public water authorities in England and Wales,

which had been created under the 1973 Water Act, became private limited companies with the introduction of the 1989 Water Act (OFWAT 1993). (b) Partial divestiture: The government transfers part of the equity in the state-owned company to private entities. In 1998, five of Chiles 13 regional water companies

originally owned by the public sector were privatized with partial sales to multinational companies (Birtran and Arellano 2005). Another good example comes from the Czech Republic where a total of 11 public sector enterprises that operated water supply and sewage systems were partially privatized following the Czech Government Resolution No. 222 of 3 July 1991, which sought to introduce reforms to the drinking water, sewage and wastewater systems (TI 2009). 3.2 Allocation of Responsibilities between Public-Private Partners

Under a PPP, a public entity would typically specify the outputs or services required from a facility, and a private company or consortium would be responsible for the finance, design, construction, operation and maintenance of a facility. The following table shows the allocation of key responsibilities between the public and private entities, in the above mentioned models of PPPs for urban water supply, and their duration (World Bank, 1997): Table 2: Allocation of Key Responsibilities in PPPs Option Asset Ownership Service Contract Management Contract Lease/ Affermage Build Operate Transfer (BOT) Contract Shared Private Private Private 20-30 years Public Private Public Shared 8-15 years Public Private Public Public 3-5 years Public Operation & Maintenance Shared Capital Investment Public Commercial Risk Public 1-2 years Duration

Is PPP a Viable Alternative Architecture for Urban Water Governance?

It is argued that PPPs can address the financial constraints faced by the public sector. They provide access to private capital in exchange for giving private companies the right to raise tolls on the water sold (which might also be supplemented by government grants or subsidies). The involvement of a new service provider helps the government to overcome the political barriers of unsustainably low tariff levels. It is also argued that PPPs overcome the capacity constraints by introducing competition (Jooste 2008). However, this competition, where introduced, is limited to the tender stage for concession contracts (in other words, it is competition for the market, rather than competition in the market), and it may or may not increase efficiency, and/ or ensure higher quality service, more sophisticated technology, and greater financial and environmental sustainability. For instance, the private sector lacks sufficient incentive to improve access in poor areas, with higher costs of provision and lower levels of demand, in the absence of regulation. Further, traditionally, private sector participation in urban water supply has been overwhelmingly dominated by large water multinationals, such as Veolia and Suez. The grant of contracts without a competitive tendering process also raises doubts about the ability of PPPs to improve competition in the water sector. The creation of alliances to overcome competition is also not uncommon. Endemic uncertainty and lack of information about the local milieu may also tie the hands of private sector. The success of PPPs for urban water supply is heavily dependent on the presence of effective regulatory mechanisms. This represents a paradox as public mismanagement is one of the justifications for private sector participation. Further, PPPs suffer from several other problems that relate to tariff increases, under-investment, especially towards the ending period of

contracts, risk-averse strategies of private operators so that public authorities tend to bear most of the uncertainties, and the very high rate of renegotiations, which undermine the credibility of the parties involved and involve very high transaction costs. Further, high capital intensity, large initial outlays, long pay-back periods, and the immobility of assets generate high risks. These factors, when combined with poor initial information and a weak investment environment, constitute important constraints on private sector participation in water and sanitation infrastructure. In the circumstances, it would appear that although the private sector participation can help countries to benefit from financial, technological and managerial inputs from the private sector to improve water governance, there are various impediments to private sector participation in the water sector in many countries. This statement is supported by the fact that, despite the interest in private sector participation in water since the 1990s, most of the water and wastewater related services worldwide, nearly 95 percent (according to some estimates), are provided by public sector companies (CPI 2003). Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that the number of people served by private companies has grown from 563 million in 2005 to approximately 805 million in 2009 (GWI 2009). This figure is expected to increase further to approximately 1163 million people by the year 2015. 4. DATABASE OF PPPS IN THE URBAN WATER SUPPLY SECTOR The database of PPP projects compiled by the researchers is based on a search of publicly available documents (e.g., newspaper articles, web logs and journal/research papers). The

database also uses information from databases compiled by other organizations, such as the Private Participation in Infrastructure (PPI) online database managed by the World Bank Group, the database of the Global Water Market 2009 published by Global Water Intelligence and information from Pinsent Masons Water Yearbook 2011 - 2012. However, a review of the available databases revealed a gap in certain number of projects. Further, a large number of the details are either missing or conflicting, although certain records are complementary. In order to meet the requirements of the research, rigorous clarifications and supplements have been made by reviewing relevant articles, reports, project track records, and websites of water companies. For the purpose of this paper, 672 projects have been chosen from the database on the basis of the adequacy of the information available.

The distribution of PPP projects (considered for this paper) in the six regions is as follows:

Figure 2: Distribution of PPP Projects by Region Based on the data collected, it is observed that Europe has the largest number of documented PPP projects, followed by Latin America and Asia. The selected PPP projects from the database, organised according to the regions in a list, is attached as Appendix. It contains information on location, type of contract, period - both planned and actual, main private players, and status/ outcome. Some of these projects have reached financial closure or are operational. Others are distressed or have concluded or

cancelled/ terminated. This may be the result of several factors, including poorly designed contracts, unsuitable regulatory mechanisms, economic and/ or public health problems. The relevant terms are explained below: Financial closure: There is legally binding commitment of private sponsors to mobilize funding or provide services. Operational: Distressed: The project has started providing services to the public. The government or the private operator has either requested contract termination or are in international arbitration.

Expired:

The contract period has expired and it was neither renewed nor extended by either the government or the private operator.

Terminated/ Remunicipalised:

The private sector has exited from the project by: selling or transferring its economic interest back to the government before fulfilling the contract terms;

removing all management and personnel; or ceasing operation, service provision, or construction for an agreed percentage of the license or concession period, following the revocation of the license or repudiation of the contract.

PRELIMINARY FINDINGS

Based on the literature review and the database, the researchers have developed the following preliminary findings. 5.1 Regional Trends Africa In Africa, a majority of the projects involve management contracts, with no joint ventures or privatized projects. Figure 3 and 4 show the type of PPP projects in Africa and their current status:

Figure 3: Types of PPP Contracts (Africa)

Figure 4: Status of Contracts (Africa) Some lease - affermages have elements of a concession contract, such as in the case of Cote dIvoire and Senegal. In these projects, the government retains asset ownership and assumes the risk of investment. They mostly rely on the private operators for their expertise and efficiency in managing the water supply network. This trend could also be due to pressure from the World Bank to promote privatization in order for the local governments to receive financial aid. By issuing out management contracts and lease/affermages, a greater degree of control could still be

maintained over the public assets while fulfilling their obligations to the World Bank. Local governments in the region could also be wary of these private operators and their cost-recovery practices. This could explain their reluctance to hand over control of their public assets for long periods of time. Latin America In Latin America, a majority of the PPP projects for urban water supply are long term concessions. There are a few management contracts and some partial divestitures in Brazil and Chile. This could be due to the fact that Latin American countries do not have the necessary financial clout to undertake the commercial risk of the partnership. It could also be due to strong influence from the multi-national companies to convince the governments to take up these contracts. Concession contracts would allow the private players more freedom to allocate their resources and provide a steady stream of income. Figure 5 and 6 show the type of PPP projects in Latin America and their current status.

Figure 5: Types of PPP Contracts (Latin America)

Figure 6: Status of Contracts (Latin America) Asia A majority of the PPP projects for urban water supply in Asia are concessions. There are also several projects developed on the basis of BOT and BOOT. Here too, strong influence of multinational agencies could be identified as a reason behind the popularity of long term concessions and BOT/BOOT type of contractual arrangements with private sector entities. Further, the technological and management constraints faced by the public sector entities in Asian countries to develop and operate efficient water facilities may have contributed towards this trend. It is also noted that Asia was one of the last regions to be hit by the privatization wave. This meant that concession contracts would have been better spelt out, and conflicts arising from earlier contracts signed would have been resolved. This would make the Asian governments more willing to commit to these long-term concession contracts. Figure 7 and 8 show the type of PPP projects in Asia and their current status.

Figure 7: Types of PPP Contracts (Asia)

Figure 8: Status of Contracts (Asia) MENA In the Middle East and North Africa, while PPPs have received significant attention for desalination projects, water supply usually falls under public management (Bruch 2007). However, examples of private sector participation are visible. A large majority of the 28 urban water supply projects involving the private sector are management contracts, and the three

concession contracts in the region are all found in Morocco. Several new management contracts are expected to be awarded to the private sector. Countries in MENA are more affluent and can afford to bear the commercial risk of the PPP projects. Private operators were needed to provide the technical know-how and efficient means of management. Figure 9 and 10 show the type of PPP projects in MENA and their current status.

Figure 9: Types of PPP Contracts (MENA)

Figure 10: Status of Contracts (MENA)

Europe The largest percentage of projects in Europe fall into the category of long term concessions whilst 18 percent of the projects have been given to the private sector on management contracts. Europe was the first to be hit by the privatization wave. As a result, private players typically fought for long term concession contracts or, in the alternative for long term leases/ affermages to maximize their profits. The ownership of private water companies in Europe is overwhelmingly dominated by Suez and Veolia, who together with other private water companies are increasingly dependent on their national government and international development banks for capital (Hall and Lobina 2010). There have been cases of termination of privatization, resulting in remunicipalisation and return to public ownership. Examples include Paris (France), Potsdam (Germany) and Kaspovar and Pecs (Hungary). Public resistance to privatization is increasing, for example, in Italy. Figures 11 and 12 show the type of PPP projects in Europe and their current status.

Except for one project that has expired, all the rest 15 are currently operational. The main private player in this region is United Water of Veolia. 5.2 Countries with no PPPs in the Water Sector In compiling the database, we have observed that in some countries there are no evidences of any PPP projects in the urban water sector. These countries are shown in Table 3.

5.3 General Observations Figure 13 shows the preferences in each of the six regions for the different types of PPP projects for urban water sector.

Figure 13: Proportions of different types of PPP projects in six regions From the 672 projects that have been considered from the six regions, it is observed that strongest preference for concession contracts is found in Latin America. This comes as a surprise given that less than three decades ago, the Latin American countries had a reputation for expropriating various investment projects, which eventually led to the development of Calvo

doctrine 1 and the subsequent development in international law that investors shall be paid appropriate compensation in accordance with international law, in the event of nationalization 2. The political developments during the post 1980 period in the Latin American countries where principles of open economy have been embraced may have contributed to investor confidence in participating in long term concession contracts in Latin America. Further, the developments in international law, especially in the area of international investments, where the right to adequate compensation in the event of expropriation is now recognised and the development of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as arbitration and the recognition of the enforceability of international arbitration awards following the New York Convention (Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, 1958) by most countries, including Latin American nations may have contributed towards this trend. Next to Latin America, Europe and Asia are the two other regions with the largest number of PPP projects in urban water being developed under long term concessions. The legal stability of the countries concerned, the recognition of contractual privity in both civil law and common law jurisdictions in Europe, and the strong influence of European Union laws and harmonization of laws and regulations of EU member nations are the likely reasons behind investor and State confidence in entering into long term concessions. Asia is a rapidly developing region with countries such as China and India during the last decade and the East Asian nations (tiger economies) in the 1980s showing rapid economic growth. Thus, it is not surprising that private and public sector entities in the region have not found it too difficult to agree on long term concessions for developing water infrastructure facilities.

The Calvo doctrine was advanced by the Argentine diplomat and legal scholar Carlos Calvo, in his International Law of Europe and America in Theory and Practice (1868). It affirmed that rules governing the jurisdiction of a country over aliens and the collection of indemnities should apply equally to all nations, regardless of size. Further, it stated that foreigners who held property in Latin American states and who had claims against the governments of such states should apply to the relevant courts within such nations for redress instead of seeking diplomatic intervention.

In 1974, the UN General Assembly decisively adopted the Charter of Economic Rights and Duties of States, which recognises the appropriate compensation standard and provides further that in any case where the question of compensation gives rise to a controversy, it shall be settled under the domestic law of the nationalizing State and by its tribunals

The regions that have preferred models of PPPs other than concessions are MENA and Africa. Interestingly, whilst MENAs reluctance to go into long term concessions and prefer management contracts seems to be motivated by the financial capacity of the public sector to finance and own water infrastructure facilities, whilst engaging the private sector chiefly for technological and management input, the African region may be suffering from lack of investor confidence in investing in water infrastructure in a region stricken with poverty and thus the substantial economic risk involved. Further, the political instability in the region and the lack of appropriate legal and regulatory environments to support long term commercial contracts may have contributed towards this trend. The region that has the largest number of projects falling into the greenfield category is Asia. The key idea behind developing infrastructure projects following this model is that it creates win-win options for all stakeholders. For example, whilst the private investors can enter a sector over which previously there were by state monopolies, the public sector can benefit from private capital, technology and management. Further, it is a concept that could be defended against political criticism on the basis that private sector ownership is limited to an agreed number of years, after which a fully operational project has to be transferred back to the public sector. Technology transfer and training of a local workforce are other key features of this type of PPPs. Thus, from a long term development perspective, the Asian region is in a good position to benefit by having embraced the concept. Whilst the lack of interest in greenfield type of PPPs in the water sector in Europe and MENA could be put down to the fiscal capacity in most of the countries in the region to finance and develop projects on their own or the lack of interest in committing the public sector to take over and run projects developed and managed by the private sector after a long duration of private sector operation and management, it is surprising that the Latin American countries have not shown an interest. The same explanation provided above with regard to long term concessions could be provided for the lack of greenfield PPPs in the African region. As far as joint ventures are concerned, none of the six regions considered in this research project have a significant number of projects developed in the urban water sector. Thus, it could be concluded that there is an overall reluctance in all six regions for active partnering of public and private sectors with financial, technological and management contributions from both sides to

develop urban water projects. The preference seems to be for either engaging the private sector to finance, develop and manage on a long term basis (e.g. concessions, greenfield) or to procure the services of the private sector to manage and operate a project developed with public sector funds (e.g. management contracts, service contracts, leases). As far as divesture is concerned, again, not a significant number of projects have been totally privatized or subjected to majority share control by the private sector in any of the six regions. Whilst Africa has no projects falling into this category, likely for the reasons explained above relating to economic viability and the additional reason of strong political opposition to nationalization, there are no divestures in MENA, probably for the reason that due to lack of water as a natural resource in the region, public sector control is of strategic and political importance. Although there are some divestures in Asia, Latin America and Europe, the number is insignificant. 5.4 Viability of Concessions

As noted above, the general preference in three of the regions, namely, Latin America, Europe and Asia seems to develop urban water projects by granting long term concessions to private sector entities. However, the long duration of concession contracts is an obstacle to competition; it is difficult to cancel these contracts even where performance is unsatisfactory due to legal constraints and the administrative processes involved. Further, concessions require private

operators to assume significant financial and foreign exchange risks and long-term commitments. In the circumstances, in countries suffering from political, economic and/or social instability and uncertainty, long-term concession contracts may not be the most suitable form of private sector engagement in the water sector, as many contractual and other disputes could arise at various points during the long duration of the partnership and parties might find it difficult to resolve such disputes effectively, thus leading to project interruptions, takeovers and terminations. Further, historically, large water multinationals have dominated the urban water supply sector partly owing to colonial structures. However, in recent years, these companies are withdrawing from the water markets in developing countries due to currency devaluations, economic crises, over-optimistic projections, and public resistance to price rises, and the impossibility of making profitable investment in extensions and improvements for poor households who were unable to pay the full cost of water supplied, without substantial public subsidy.

The above aspects are illustrated by the recent exit of large multinational water companies from several developing countries (Hall et al. 2010). Some examples provided in the table below. Table 4: Recent exits of large companies from developing countries Country Project Date of Termination Argentina Tucuman 30-year water concession contract 2004 Multinational involved Vivendi Poor service quality, high tariffs, serious operational failures.

Cancellations

Regulation forms an integral function of the public/government in the partnership with the private sector. Unfortunately, in several cases, public authorities are known to have turned their backs once a PPP contract is signed. In the absence of effective and independent regulation mechanisms, some cases of bribery/ corruption have been reported. There are also cases of privatization involving efficient public water utilities. Moreover, confidentiality and secrecy hamper transparency and deny access to the terms and conditions of contracts that hand over the management of a public resource to the private sector. In some countries, community

involvement is relatively unknown. As far as the private sector is concerned, poor financial risk allocation and political and legal instabilities have contributed to early project exits. Overall, all these factors have contributed to the failure of projects. The region with the highest percentage of project cancellations is Africa. Again, the reasons setout above such as economic viability, political instability, and lack of legal and regulatory infrastructure for long term project success can be listed as the key reasons for the large percentage of projects cancelled in Africa. Study of the next two regions with the highest percentage of projects cancellations has shown that public opposition to high prices charged by the private developers and the political opposition to private sector engagements and the developing trend of demand for public takeover of privatized or private operated water facilities are the key contributing factors to project cancellations. Cancellation of projects in Asia and MENA has been rather low compared to the other regions. In Asia, the strong legal contracts and the fear of having to pay heavy compensations to investors in the event of breaching contractual obligations concerning investment guarantees seems to

have contributed to the reluctance to cancel projects. Further, strong investment protection laws and public interest laws, and the early public activism during the stages of project feasibility studies and environmental impact assessments, outcomes of which are generally available in the public domain, seem to filter the project procurement process at an early stage, thus reducing the reasons for post development project cancellations. In MENA, the fact that only a small percentage of projects are procured as totally private sector funded projects may be the key reason behind the low project cancellation. 6. CONCLUSION In recent times, in many cases, management of urban water facilities has reverted to national/ provincial governments or local municipalities. Further, the departure of international water companies has provided a window of opportunity for local private companies, who have emerged as the new owners of the water infrastructure. The domestic private players may be independent, enter into joint ventures with foreign private companies, or act as subsidiaries of foreign private companies. Local industrial conglomerates and domestic private companies, who were already involved in water through construction or consulting / engineering, are also diversifying into PPPs for urban water supply. They have experience of doing business in their home country (and so, they are aware of the political environment and customer needs, and they are able to adapt to social conditions); they tend to adopt a long-term perspective in relation to their business operations, which is useful for volatile political, social and economic environments, and they possess investment capacity as a result of access to local financial markets. Further, they are not affected by foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Thus, many changes can be expected in the development and management architecture for urban water projects. Water has been and will continue to remain a public good. Thus, if PPPs are to be successful in the urban water sector, it is important for both public sector as well as private sector entities to understand the relevant constraints applicable to the partnering agreements. It is unlikely, especially in developing countries, that urban water projects can be developed purely on the basis of profit making. Long term sustainability of such projects would thus depend on provision of water to the people being the foremost obligation and educating the people to understand the scarcity of water and thus the cost of developing infrastructure and the services required for

delivering water to them. If this can be achieved, making a just profit to compensate the investors who develop the relevant technologies and invest in long term projects in partnership with public sector entities would not be unachievable.
