Locations
Brazil
Brazil invests heavily in highway networks, port expansion, rail corridors, renewable energy, and urban mobility systems to support its large and diversified economy. Major infrastructure priorities include logistics improvements for agricultural and mining exports, as well as energy transition projects such as wind and solar expansion. Financing combines federal and state budgets, development banks (notably BNDES), concessional loans, and private sector participation through concession models. Public-private partnerships are widely used in airport, port, and toll road projects. Fiscal constraints, regulatory complexity, and environmental licensing processes significantly influence implementation timelines.

South Africa
South Africa possesses one of the most developed infrastructure systems in Africa, including extensive transport networks, ports, energy assets and financial markets. However, maintenance backlogs, electricity supply constraints and logistics bottlenecks have weighed on growth in recent years. Reform of state-owned enterprises, expansion of renewable energy procurement and increased private participation in infrastructure are central to restoring efficiency, strengthening competitiveness and supporting long-term economic expansion.
