To attract private capital to invest in infrastructure, reduce the government deficits, improve the quality of services on infrastructure projects, and boost the economy, the Ministry of Finance will hold the “2020 Seminar on the Promotion of PPP (Public-Private Partnerships) Infrastructure Projects and Financing Mechanisms.” The Seminar is expected to collect opinions about promoting the government procurement of public services and infrastructure financing mechanisms. Welcome to participate in the seminar in the Civil Service Development Institute (Howard Civil International Service House) on September 23.
In recent years, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) has emphasized PPP to attract the private sector to invest in infrastructure to boost the economy. Financing feasibility is a key factor for successful PPP projects. The seminar will analyze diversified financing sources and practical approaches from 15 APEC member economies, and have discussions and Q&A about three major issues: “the Development and Challenges of PPP projects adopting government procurement of public services”, “Practical Sharing on Infrastructure projects Attracting Private Equity Fund”, and “Practical Sharing on the Promotion of PPP projects using Project Financing.”
The Seminar invites Toshiaki Tashiro, senior legal specialist of Lee and Li, Attorneys-at-Law; Paul You, Chairman of First Securities Investment Trust Co., Ltd., Jeff Chang, Chairman of Cathay Securities Investment Trust Co., Ltd., and Shih-Chung Huang, the former General Manager of ICBC Assets Management & Consulting Co., Ltd. to make professional and practical suggestions on three major issues, the Ministry of Finance said. Additionally, experts and scholars from the industry, government, and academia will join the discussions. We hope Taiwan capital markets will have more diversified financing vehicles to stimulate the investment market in the long-term.
