Public –Private Partnerships in Angola

On 14 March Law No. 2/2011 on public-private partnerships (“PPP Law”) came into force in Angola. It is intended  that this law, which was published on 14 January 2011, will boost the State’s ability to take advantage of the private sector’s management capacity, improve the quality and quantity of public services and generate savings in the use of public resources (through a more efficient allocation of the available resources). In the same way, the new legislation should allow a strengthening of the relationship between the State and the private sector in the process of Angolan economic growth and development.
