Investment Promotion and Financing Facility II (IPFF II) is a project of Government of Bangladesh, with financial support of the World Bank for creating sustainable platform for low cost long-term financing in infrastructure and strengthening skills and abilities of the private sector to bridge the substantial infrastructure gap in Bangladesh where Bangladesh Bank (BB) acts as the Project Implementation Unit (PIU).
Bangladesh Infrastructure Finance Fund Limited (BIFFL) and ONE Bank Limited (OBL) have jointly participated in the subject finance in USD for 13 years through a syndication led by OBL.
