Guayaquil, the largest city in Ecuador, offers a pragmatic and successful approach to pricing urban water services in the developing world. This chapter discusses the underlying principles and lessons learned to finance operations and investments from tariff revenue and subsidies, under a 30-year concession contract awarded in 2001. It reviews price-adjustment mechanisms to account for inflation and meet investment and service targets. It presents strategies followed to cover financing shortfalls to meet poverty and environmental goals. Finally, it summarizes strategic recommendations for other cities of the world.
