dc.description.abstract | A country's level of infrastructure can influence its residents' well-being, environmental protection, knowledge creation, and economic competitiveness. Due to rapidly increasing urbanisation and concomitant requirements for better infrastructure, the public sector, the traditional provider of infrastructure, is under duress to provide the required capital for infrastructure development. It is generally widely acknowledged that additional funding needs to be mobilised from the private sector for infrastructure development. Several factors, including macroeconomic factors, affect the mobilisation of private sector finance for infrastructure development. Though the importance of macroeconomic factors in attracting private sector finance has been stated by many scholars, very few studies have been undertaken to identify them, specifically in the South African context. A qualitative exploratory research approach was adopted to identify the relevant macroeconomic factors and how they influence the private sector financing of infrastructure projects. In the study, 12 in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with experienced professionals engaged in debt, mezzanine, and equity financing of infrastructure projects. The study established that relevant macroeconomic factors affect the project financing decisions of the private sector. The findings contributed to the development of a framework to leverage the identified macroeconomic factors to attract private sector finance for infrastructure development. In addition, this study contributes to the general body of academic literature on this subject. | |
