Of course they are going to come to conclusions that back their mandate.
Would you blindly accept the conclusions the WTO and World Bank come to?
There is nothing wrong with them representing the public sector and launching said study, if said study and its sources are sound. Who else is going to fund these studies, the private sector highlighting their own inefficiencies? That would be a cold day in hell. It certainly has more merit than that ****ty Wikipedia paragraph that you posted. Oh and while we're at it, the source for why PSI is "at odds" with the WTO is because the WTO is promoting the privatization of water as a resource. I don't need to tell you why that is a bad idea.

In any case, you free to post a study proving your point. Governments should not be run like a business, period.
