Abstract Text This thesis investigates infrastructure project finance in Sub-Saharan Africa over a 30-year period. Realizing that a significant data and knowledge gap exists, the research analysis aims at reducing both gaps. A thorough descriptive analysis provides a holistic picture of the infrastructure project finance activity in the region over the period from 1990 to 2020. A multitude of current and historic trends are uncovered within it. A brief quantitative analysis meanwhile evaluates factors which could influence project finance and leads to speculate that there is a two-way relation between infrastructure project finance and economic output.
