The Government of Algeria has announced plans to invest $215 billion in publicly funded infrastructure during 2015-2019, with a focus on hospital construction and renovation, transportation infrastructure, wastewater management and desalination, and ports/airports. The largest share of this public expenditure will be allocated toward the construction of five hospitals, and the renovation of approximately 15 hospitals.
Through its sovereign wealth fund, referred to as the Fonds de Regulation des Recettes (FRR), Algeria is well positioned to expand its robust infrastructure spending of recent years. These Government of Algeria investments in public infrastructure will generate opportunities for U.S. firms throughout the infrastructure supply chain.
Participants in the webchat will hear a briefing from Ambassador Polaschik on U.S. – Algerian relations, and the growing Algerian government interest in U.S. commercial engagement. The following market participants will provide briefings on the Algerian business climate, and the operating environment within the infrastructure sector, which will be followed by a question and answer discussion:
Touffik Fredj, General Electric Country Manager
George Assi, Consolidated Construction Company Country Manager
Amine Zouioueche, Veritas Consulting
Mballe Nkembe and Chris Wilken, U.S. Embassy Algiers, Economic and Commercial Officers
