What is EPEC?

The European PPP Expertise Centre (EPEC) was launched by the European Investment Bank (EIB) and European Commission on 16 September 2008. EPEC is a collaboration between the EIB, European Union Member and Candidate States and the European Commission which is designed to strengthen the organisational capacity of the public sector to engage in Public Private Partnership (PPP) transactions.

EPEC allows PPP taskforces in EU Member and Candidate countries to share experience and expertise, analysis and best practice relating to PPP transactions. Staffed by experienced PPP transactors, EPEC synthesises the experience of its members and disseminates this as practical and operational guidance.
