Introduction to Finance for PPP

【Course Purpose and Description】

Public-private partnerships are mainly targeted at financial activities in the public sector centered on local governments, and in particular, the issue of financing in the public sector is one of the major pillars. At the same time, this suggests that when a private company is involved in PPP, the ability to finance will determine whether or not the business can be carried out.

Throughout, we aim to steadily improve our basic understanding of financial theory. At the end of the lecture schedule, on the premise of such a basic understanding of financial theory, we will explain the financing methods used in relation to PPP / PFI with examples.
