Purpuse: PPP is a proven and effective method of implementing public investment. PPP development in Poland is influenced by formal and informal institutions. The aim of the ar-ticle is to determine, based on empirical research (qualitative and quantitative) and critical review of the literature, the influence of formal and informal institutions on PPP develop-ment in Poland.
Methodology: A hybrid approach was used to combine several quantitative and qualitative research methods: individual in-depth interviews (IDI) n = 32 with persons responsible for PPP projects by the side of private (n = 16) and public partners (n = 16); survey n = 2,805 with local government units (valid questionnaires n = 257 units) and panel with PPP experts.
Findings: PPP partners have limited trust to each other. PPP market in Poland is dominated by micro projects worth less than PLN 5 million, which are an opportunity for development of SMEs. So, the impact of formal and informal institutions directed to encourage SMEs to actively participate in the award procedure for private partner is crucial. The synergy effect may be achieved through the cooperation of formal and informal institutions focus on creat-ing conducive environment for the development of cooperation and mutual trust between partners.
