TICGL’s Economic Research Centre has published a discussion paper authored by Dr. Bravious Felix Kahyoza PhD, FMVA, CP3P (braviouskahyoza5@gmail.com) and Amran Bhuzohera, exploring how Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) contribute to Tanzania’s national development priorities, infrastructure expansion, and private-sector-led growth.

Dr. Bravious Felix Kahyoza, a certified professional in Financial Modeling & Valuation Analyst (FMVA) and Certified PPP Professional (CP3P), brings advanced expertise in project feasibility, risk management, and investment performance. His work reflects a strong commitment to evidence-based decision-making, sustainable investment, and economic transformation in Tanzania.

Amid persistent financing gaps and reduced donor aid, the study examines the institutional, regulatory, and financial structures shaping PPP performance. It provides an in-depth assessment of how effective governance, policy coherence, and financial innovation can accelerate Tanzania’s journey toward Vision 2050 and the Third National Five-Year Development Plan (FYDP III).

Drawing evidence from PPP projects across energy, transport, and social infrastructure sectors, and consultations with key institutions such as PPPC, TIC, and the Ministry of Finance, the findings reveal:

Progressive legal frameworks, yet uneven enforcement and limited project bankability.
Institutional fragmentation weakens coordination and investor confidence.
Financing constraints persist due to underdeveloped domestic capital markets.
Enhanced collaboration between public and private actors is essential to sustain impact.

Key Policy Directions

  1. Strengthen institutional coordination through a unified PPP regulatory framework and clear accountability mechanisms.
  2. Expand blended finance models and risk-sharing instruments to attract long-term investment.
  3. Build national capacity in PPP project appraisal, negotiation, and contract management.
  4. Prioritize transparency and impact assessment in project selection to ensure value-for-money outcomes.

These recommendations position PPPs as a cornerstone of Tanzania’s economic transformation, ensuring that private sector participation drives sustainable, inclusive growth across priority sectors.
