Abstract

Abstract In this chapter the issues of corporatization and privatization are examined. This means looking at the reasons behind the dissatisfaction with the performance of the government business enterprises that arose in the 1980s and 1990s, and exploring some of the steps taken to address them. In addition to providing an account of the process and elements of corporatization, a survey of the privatization of government-owned enterprises in Australia since the 1980s is presented. This includes an analysis of the sequence and pace of the sales, the industries in which they occurred, and by jurisdiction. In addition, the quantum of Australia’s privatisations since 1990 is illustrated, with estimations of sale prices shown in terms of Constant $ values.
