<\/a> Egypt faces a USD 230 bn investment gap in infrastructure over the coming 20 years \u2014 and the vast majority of that is in transportation<\/b>, according to a World Bank analysis. Some USD 180 bn of the projected gap is in transport, while water infrastructure needs USD 45 bn in investment above current baseline projections.<\/p>\n

Pay attention to agriculture and energy, too: <\/b>While the investment gap is significantly lower here, the agriculture and agribusiness sector accounts for 30% of GDP and \u201chas the highest potential for job creation\u201d among the four priority sectors the Madbouly government and the World Bank identified for the study.<\/p>\n

Before you get too down, remember: This means massive potential investments. <\/b>The solution? Empower the private sector, the WB says, and transition from \u201ctaxpayer funding to user funding\u201d \u2014 with plenty of emphasis on public-private partnerships.<\/p>\n

Among the World Bank\u2019s key recommendations by sector:<\/p>\n

Transport: <\/b>A USD 10 bn, 10-year investment plan to rehabilitate the railroad. Also: \u201cInvite the private sector to develop \u2026 container and cargo terminals, river transport, railway projects, dry ports, bus rapid transit and light rail.\u201d<\/p>\n

Energy: <\/b>USD 10 bn in fresh investment to upgrade and build new refineries. Also: Build another 3.6 GW in generation capacity right away to \u201celiminate power outages,\u201d bring the private sector into a liberalized electricity market, and find new ways to promote private investment in renewables.<\/p>\n

Agriculture: <\/b>Improve water management systems and irrigation networks, reclaim more land, develop logistics networks that will sharply cut the massive percentage of crops lost between farm and market, develop the food processing industry through \u201cefficiently located agro-industrial parks\u201d and restructure the Agricultural Bank of Egypt.<\/p>\n

Water and wastewater: <\/b>The recommendations are the most bland here, talking about \u201cfiscal policy reforms to encourage sustainable consumption patterns of water\u201d (we\u2019re reading that as \u201cprice hikes\u201d), improved management systems and awareness campaigns.<\/p>\n

But all of this will need the government to loosen price controls<\/b>, stick to a clear policy framework against which businesses can budget and plan \u2014 and develop the ability of state institutions to run as full partners of the private sector by improving their abilities to plan and manage bid processes.<\/p>\n

The document is more than 100pp long. What should I read? <\/b>Page 5 focuses on short-term solutions for each sector \u2014 it\u2019s essentially a great list of business ideas if you let your mind wander as you read. The World Bank\u2019s recommendations are summarized on pp 15-16.<\/p>\n
