Abu Dhabi’s strong commitment to fostering collaboration with the private sector is realised through the emirate’s public-private partnership (PPP) initiatives.  

In 2019, a new law regulating PPPs (Law No.2) was introduced to encourage long-term involvement of the private sector in major infrastructure projects in the emirate. 

Abu Dhabi’s PPP model:

• Supports the growth of the private sector by increasing domestic and foreign private sector investment in infrastructure projects and the delivery of public services 
• Enhances financial sustainability and flexibility by spreading infrastructure investment costs over the life of the asset
• Facilitates better execution and service delivery by encouraging private sector innovation in the implementation and operation of infrastructure projects
