Leading Public-Private Partnership Initiative in Gambia

In a series of complex assignments, Dexis worked with the Gambia's Investment Promotion and Free Zones Agency (GIPFZA) to provide a full range of technical services to increase investment in the country, including: 1) develop a three-year strategy and implementation plan for investment promotion, free zones, and industrial parks; 2) privatize a government-owned flagship park; 3) work with government officials to develop the transaction parameters, define the regulatory package, value the assets,identify potential developers, and organize and lead a developer road show in The Gambia, Nigeria, India, UAE, and Singapore; 4) develop tender documents; 5) set-up the legal framework and agreements for tenants and master developer of the business park; and 6) support their effort to attract funding for staff training. The Gambia successfully attracted five bidders to participate in privatizing its flagship park (two tenants and 160 workers).
