IPFA Australia: Sydney: New Zealand Treasury Infrastructure Update

---

New Zealand elected a new Government in 2017, which changed the near-term pipeline for infrastructure delivery and PPPs in NZ. The new Government has announced some ambitious new initiatives including; Kiwibuild, Provincial Growth Fund, Crown Infrastructure Partners, a new independent Infrastructure entity, and upcoming projects include Auckland Light Rail and Penlink. Despite the initial change in the near-term pipeline, there is urgent need for increased investment in infrastructure in NZ, and the Government is willing to partner with the private sector to deliver its ambitious initiatives.
 
Attendees will hear the latest market updates from the New Zealand Treasury and Crown Infrastructure Partners, followed by an interactive panel session, then networking drinks.
