At the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), we are convinced that the only way to tackle the daunting global challenges that we face today is by working closely with others. That is why in 2022 we established our Operational Partnership Department (OPD), with the clear mission of expanding AIIB capacity to establishing ambitious, strategic alliances to operate to the highest standards and maximize development impact for our clients.

Taking a collaborative, inclusive and sustainable approach, we engage with peer multilateral development banks (MDBs), development partners, international institutions, think tanks, civil society and philanthropic organizations to mobilize resources, share knowledge, build capacity and coordinate efforts in infrastructure financing. We actively seek promising co-financing opportunities with other institutions to maximize the impact of our projects and address development challenges prevalent across Asia and beyond.

Our mission is simple: to mobilize external financial and technical resources in support of AIIB investments, and to enhance AIIB’s impact in the international development architecture.

Institutional Engagement and Cooperation

We are also deeply engaged in—and committed to—key global and regional platforms and forums including the G20, MDB Heads Group, UN General Assembly (UNGA), and the Conference of the Parties (COP).

Resource Mobilization

Our Resource Mobilization Team develops tailored strategies and innovative products / solutions to mobilize technical and financial resources in support of AIIB's investment operations and Special Funds. To this end, we work closely with donors, development players, international financial institutions (IFIs) and multilateral organizations to set up innovative resource mobilization platforms and blended finance structures to accelerate and scale impact for our clients.

Special Funds

Our Special Funds Team leads the design, management, and administration of AIIB Special Funds resources as well as AIIB's role as implementing partner in select partnership facilities. AIIB has multiple Special Funds that covers preparation and financing of high-quality bankable projects, capacity building, information sharing, and making our loans more affordable through interest buydown. We are also accredited institutions to a number of external funds, including the Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness and Response Financial Intermediary Fund (Pandemic Fund), the Global Infrastructure Facility Special Fund (GIF), and the Multilateral Cooperation Center for Development Finance Special Fund (MCDF).
