Private Sector Investment in Justice

This background brief is part of the Justice Financing Framework and discusses the potential for private sector financing and entrepreneurship to deliver primary justice services; the assurances that private entrepreneurs need in order to contribute to delivery of primary justice services at scale; and how to mitigate the risks of private entrepreneur involvement.

The Justice Financing Framework recommends that countries should increase the scope for private sector investment in justice. This includes fostering an enabling environment for private sector entrepreneurs to obtain an adequate return on investments to deliver justice at scale with appropriate risk management.
