Risk management in the implementation of transport projects within the framework of public-private partnership
In modern conditions of instability of economic and financial indicators of territorial budgets, the epidemiological situation, in order to reduce the uncertainty of implementing projects based on public-private partnerships it is necessary to identify possible risks and parties to the agreement that could mitigate or prevent them. In Russia transport projects are among the top three projects implemented on the basis of public-private partnerships, along with social and utility industries. However, the applied mechanisms for the development of public-private partnerships and risk management in their implementation in the transport sector are not effective enough. Therefore there remains a need to develop scientifically based proposals for the formation of a risk management system by the parties to the agreement. Based on the study of regulations and relevant scientific publications conclusions were drawn about the insufficiency of theoretical and methodological developments of the problem under consideration. The presented principles of risk management in the implementation of public-private partnership projects are associated with the need to comply with the requirements of not only legislation, but also the conditions of the time of project implementation. The long-term nature of the development and implementation of public-private partnership projects implies a certain flexibility and the possibility of adjusting the conditions and actions of their participants. As recommendations, possible methods of risk management and tools are proposed, with the help of which projects can be most effectively implemented. At the same time, these methods are aimed at the scope of activities of public authorities. These are regulatorylegal, organizational-economic, financial, information-consulting and socio-political methods. When considering the implementation of public infrastructure projects, it is expected to apply a systematic approach and take into account their social significance. The consequences of their influence on related areas can lead to crisis situations. Transport projects can have an impact not only on the economic condition of the territorial entity, but also on the environmental situation. The main theoretical provisions can be useful in the training of specialists in the field of public-private partnership, as well as be of interest for the practical activities of public authorities in the formation of a risk management system and public-private partnership projects.
