AIIB Project Preparation Special Fund

Established in June 2016, the Project Preparation Special Fund (PPSF) is a multidonor facility created to provide technical assistance grants to support the preparation of high-quality bankable projects for AIIB Members, especially less developed Members. Project preparation activities supported by these grants are critical to improve project quality and ensure economic, environmental and social sustainability and implementation readiness.

The resources of the PPSF are used to finance technical assistance grants for preparatory activities required during the preparation and early implementation of a project.
