Did you know? Note 2
Recent private participation in airports has focused on stand alone international
airports and terminals
Particularly in the last few years, their share in airport projects grew from 57
percent in 1990-2001 to over 90 percent in 2002-05 (figure below). The trend towards
private participation in large, international airports was also visible in transaction
size. The average investment commitments per project rose from US$200 million in
2003 to US$750 million in 2005. While the 2005 average is strongly influenced by
the large Ataturk and Budapest transactions, it is worth noting that during that
year, five other airport transactions that reached financial closure in 2005 attracted
commitments exceeding US$300 million each.
