Ilya Skripnikov, Partner and Head of PPP and Real Estate Practice at Rybalkin, Gortsunyan, Dyakin and Partners law firm (RGD), has published a column in a special issue of Pravo.ru. The printed version of the issue was distributed at St. Petersburg International Legal Forum held in 2024.
In his column, the expert speaks about public-private partnerships and concessions, which have become a widespread practice in infrastructure projects in the past 20 years. Russia has established a solid legislative framework for this enabling all parties to work effectively and combine different tools and methods.
Experience of RGD and its clients shows that PPP and concession models are efficient in road and railway construction, as well as for housing and utilities, creating opportunities to involve private and state financing.
There are reasons to believe that a law may be adopted in 2024 enabling reconstruction and construction of private industrial facilities within the public-private partnerships framework.
