The 2011 Infrascope is an index built by the Economist Intelligence Unit and commissioned by the Asian Development Bank

This document is a summary and analysis of a benchmarking index and learning tool that assesses the capacity of countries in the Asia-Pacific region to carry out sustainable public-private infrastructure partnerships, as of June 2011. The methodology is based on a similar study of Latin America and the Caribbean published in 2009 and 2010. The index was built by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and commissioned by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The views and opinions expressed in this publication are those of the EIU and do not necessarily reflect the official position of the ADB.

An EIU research team, led by Manisha Mirchandani, Vanesa Sanchez and Manoj Vohra, conducted the study. Michael Regan, professor of Infrastructure at Bond University, Queensland, was research consultant and project adviser for the Asia-Pacific region. Eduardo Bitran and Marcelo Villena, the joint research managers for the Latin America and Caribbean Infrascope, advised on the expansion of the original research framework to include the Asia-Pacific region.

This publication follows the EIU's editorial style and practice in reference to country names.
