The Project addresses some of the key concerns highlighted by the CPS (2007-2011). First, it increases private sector participation in the economy through the privatization of HDFC. Second, it will help alleviate some of the Government's fiscal burden, as the Government can no longer provide funding for HDFC. Third, the financial sector will be strengthened through the expansion of HDFC operations. Fourth, the TA will strengthen HDFC's institutional capacity. Finally, and most importantly, the Project will address the chronic shortage of housing. |
