Abstract

En este trabajo se desarrolla un modelo basado en la teoría de los incentivos para analizar la asignación optima de los riesgos en los contratos de infraestructuras y servicios públicos, en un entorno de información asimétrica entre principal (Administración Pública) y agente (socio privado), y de aversión al riesgo de este ultimo. La principal conclusión del trabajo es que, en un contrato optimo, la transferencia del riesgo de demanda al socio privado será mayor, frente al riesgo de disponibilidad, en la medida en que tengan mayor incidencia aquellas dimensiones de la calidad del servicio que puedan ser observadas por los usuarios pero no verificadas por la Administración. Clasificación JEL: D82, H54, H57, L97.
