In some types of PPP, the government uses tax revenue to provide Capital for investment, with operations run jointly with the private sector or under contract (see Contracting Out ). In other types (notably the Private Finance Initiative ), capital investment is made by the private sector on the strength of a contract with government to provide agreed services. Government contributions to a PPP may also be in kind (notably the transfer of existing assets). Typically, a private sector consortium forms a special company called a " Special Purpose Vehicle " (SPV) to build and maintain the asset. The consortium is usually made up of a building contractor, a maintenance company and a bank lender. It is the SPV that signs the contract with the government and with subcontractors to build the facility and then maintain it. A typical PPP example would be a hospital building financed and constructed by a private developer and then leased to the hospital authority. The private developer then acts as landlord, providing housekeeping and other non medical services while the hospital itself provides medical services.
