E) partnerships

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Partnerships involve collaboration and joint efforts between the public and private sectors, with both parties sharing risks and responsibilities. This differs from other arrangements such as contracting where the private sector is hired to perform a specific service or task, or franchising where the private sector is granted the right to use a particular business model or brand. Vouchers are a form of payment, while voluntary associations and divestitures do not necessarily involve collaboration between the public and private sectors. Public corporations are entirely owned and operated by the government.
