Abstract

Public-Private Partnerships in the form of Law No. 11,079 / 04 are presented as an alternative to increase public investment in infrastructure in Brazil in compliance with the tax’s and the country's public accounts conditions. This study aims to characterize the existing PublicPrivate Partnership contracts in Brazil and in the Northeast, demonstrating the origin of this legal instrument and form of development adapted to national reality. It was used a qualitative research of documentary nature, whose source of information was the official documents for characterization of existing contracts. It was identified the existence of 86 signed contracts in the country, of which 18 are in the Northeast. The contracted amounts exceed the amount of R$ 147 billion and add up a total private investment of R$ 30 billion. There is a predominance of contracts in the Administrative Concession model, in which the Grantor is mostly represented by states. The structures of guarantees are generally linked to Guarantee Funds and the financing of investments is backed by public banks.
