Abstract
Abstract John Quiggin's ‘Does Privatisation Pay?’ is critically assessed in this short article. The following issues are specifically addressed: un‐derpricing, sovereign risk, the equity premium, fiscal illusion, welfare considerations, and the efficiency of private and public enterprises. The article concludes that privatisation need not be a poor economic bargain for the community and that it ought to be considered on a case‐by‐case basis.
