INFRASTRUCTURE FOR TOMORROW
The vast infrastructure financing needs far exceed the fiscal capacity of governments and balance sheets of multilateral development banks. Notwithstanding the extensive private financing that can potentially be attracted, current participation of private capital in Asian infrastructure is quite low. Private financing is still predominantly provided by the banking sectors with the large Asian institutional investor pool untapped.
AIIB plays a catalytic role in increasing private investors’ appetite for investing in emerging market infrastructure, as well as other productive sectors key to infrastructure. AIIB's mobilization can be direct or indirect, with flexibility in how deals can be structured. Investment may take a variety of forms, including loans, guarantees, or equity investments. AIIB will establish its market credibility and leadership in the selection, design and financing of high-quality projects that can leverage their own financing to mobilize private capital. By focusing on leading transactions and actively mobilizing the private sector, AIIB will be able to increase the overall financing to the client.
