FIRST BUSINESS ROUNDTABLE FOR PROJECTS IN ASSETS ATTRACTS INTEREST FROM INVESTORS
Lima, November 21, 2024.- The Private Investment Promotion Agency - PROINVERSIÓN hosted Proinvest 2024: First business roundtable in the Projects in Assets modality to facilitate direct contact between potential investors and 13 public entities that presented more than 64 investment initiatives with high social impact for 1,700 million soles that will benefit six regions.
This modern dynamic involved more than 110 personal meetings, through pre-arranged appointments, between representatives of public entities and potential investors interested in developing social housing projects, commercial, financial and productive centers, as well as polyclinics, food markets, land terminals, logistics centers, educational institutes and parking lots, among others.
PROINVERSIÓN's executive director, José Salardi, said that under the Projects in Assets modality, private investors are sought to contribute to developing infrastructure of interest in properties owned by state entities in Lima, Tacna, Moquegua, Piura, Lambayeque and Amazonas.
Salardi mentioned that, this year, the agency has held two events to promote Projects in Assets. In May, for example, seven public entities presented 27 projects worth more than S/ 1,000 million, whose ownership belongs to municipalities such as Ancón, San Bartolo, Surquillo, Alto Selva Alegre and Chiclayo, as well as the Ministry of Culture (MINCUL) and the National Superintendence of Public Registries (SUNARP).
Similarly, a second promotional event was held in October, where another eight public entities presented 30 Projects in Assets that caused great expectations among national and foreign investors.
These events are part of a decentralized strategy of the agency to provide support to public entities in identifying, prioritizing and executing more and better projects through public-private investment; which are developed within the framework of the Technical Collaboration agreements signed with local governments to prepare Multiannual Investment Reports in Public-Private Partnerships (IMIAPP).
Potential
To date, PROINVERSIÓN and various public entities have identified 72 properties (assets under their ownership) to develop infrastructure and public services through the Projects in Assets modality for S/ 1,880 million, to benefit the population in seven regions.
It is important to remember that Projects in Assets are a type of public-private investment that is carried out on assets owned by public entities, which may be movable or immovable, tangible or intangible property. The objective is that the project is of public utility, that means, that it benefits the population. Initiatives under this modality do not involve public resources and do not transfer risks to the public entity.
