This article analyzes several case studies concerning the management of drinking water and wastewater services in four countries: Portugal, Germany, France, and the Netherlands. The aim is to examine the role played by certain financial and nonfinancial intermediaries as catalysts of blended finance, for managing fund-ing within the water sector of each country considered in the analysis. The idea is to provide examples of alternative financial management in contexts where wa-ter resource management is precarious.

Keywords: economic sustainability, efficiency, drinking water and wastewater management, organization, management models, tariff system, financing system, financial sustainability.
