Summary
Global opportunities for cities and localities have led to a renewed impetus for new financial tools. Addressing how public assets can be better used to generate private co-investment (rather than just sold for a once only 'current value' price) is now the new mind-set, and thinking about the organizational vehicles needed at local and regional levels to promote financial innovation has moved on. This book provides a comprehensive overview of financial instruments and investment strategies being implemented throughout OECD Member and non-Member countries. It highlights effective tools, explores the roles and responsibilities of governments, public agencies and inter-governmental organizations. The lessons from this book are essential reading for policy makers, practitioners and all actors involved in delivering local development.--Publisher's description.
