Privatization Studies

In recent years, the Louis Berger Group (Berger) has been increasingly active in the growing field of transportation services and facilities. We are serving as consultants on infrastructure privatization throughout the world covering a wide range of transport modes and activities. These projects have ranged from developing strategies for the sales of public sector assets to the development of private concession projects covering the full range of Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) and its variants.

Areas of expertise in The Louis Berger Group include:

• Private Investment in Management of Public Infrastructure and Enterprise
• Commercialization and Privatization
• Private Sector Development

Berger's experience with privatization has also extended to many other sectors of the economy, including food production, state-owned enterprise, banks, water development industry, the hotel industry, cement and others.

• private management of public infrastructure
• private financing and investment of infrastructure
• commercialization, private management and privatization of public enterprise
• rehabilitation and restructuring of public enterprise
