Locations

Angola

In recent years, Angola has stepped up investment in repairing, expanding and modernising its infrastructure as a core pillar of post‑civil war reconstruction and economic development. While high levels of public investment have helped restore key transport, energy and water assets, improving the efficiency and quality of this investment will require strengthening financial markets, regulatory frameworks and infrastructure governance. According to InfraCompass 2020, Angola scores relatively low on these institutional drivers compared with many other countries, underscoring the importance of reforms to translate funding into sustainable economic outcomes.

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan has used hydrocarbon revenues to modernise transport corridors, ports and energy infrastructure, positioning itself along the Middle Corridor linking Europe and Asia. Infrastructure investment supports export capacity and ambitions to diversify into logistics, manufacturing and renewables. State-led financing has driven much of this expansion, complemented by strategic partnerships. Reducing oil dependency and strengthening private sector participation remain key to sustainable development.
