English term or phrase: for private gain

Mismo contexto:

The approach argues for public financing for marketing to achieve public health gains and private investment in latrines for private gain.

Again, my try:

El enfoque aboga por el financiamiento público para que el mercadeo obtenga ganancias en salud pública y hayan inversiones privadas para letrinas para el beneficio privado.

No obstante, siento como que si suena demasiado literal.

para provecho propio / en beneficio propio

Explanation:
Aparte de cambiar "hayan" por "haya", como bien dice Andy, también deberías considerar modificar lo siguiente: ...con el objetivo de progresar (u obtener beneficios) en lo que respecta a la salud pública, así como conseguir inversiones privadas para adquirir letrinas en beneficio propio (para provecho propio o para obtener un provecho personal).
