bibliography, key issues, toolkit files

Module 6: Tools provides complementary references and features to the Toolkit modules as well as specific functions to assist the presentation and dissemination of Toolkit related materials.

Case studies present both well and lesser-known examples of PPP on all five continents and which comprise the range of PPP options from performance-based maintenance contracts to highway BOT concessions. The case studies present either the specifics of a particular PPP project (seven project case studies) or the development and application of policy and strategy for PPP projects and programs (six country case studies).

Financial Models are intended to familiarize non-financial users with the basics of project finance and better understand the key parameters which affect the financial viability of a highway project. Two models are proposed, a graphical model as a pedagogical tool for financial simulation and a numerical model for an initial project analysis at pre-feasibility level of possible PPP options, including possible toll rates and subsidy levels.

Bibliography is the key reference source for documents included in the toolkit. Each document listing includes the principal reference details, main topics addressed in the document and links to relevant document sources, including pdf file, weblink and publisher website. All pdf files are integrated in the toolkit for easy reference.

Key issues: This section facilitates consultation of the Toolkit on a number of key issues related to PPP development, particularly with respect to those subjects included in several sections of the Toolkit. For each key issue, a series of questions guides the user to the related section of the Toolkit. The section also provides a brief summary of other World Bank toolkits which may assist in certain aspects related to PPP development in the highway sector.

Toolkit files allows the download of the complete Toolkit in PDF version and of all Toolkit figures for professional-level outputs for consultation, reports and presentations, as well as of the complete CD-Rom version with CD cover and label.
