Common Questions

The PPF Navigator is a tool developed by the Global Infrastructure Facility (GIF) to help governments, project sponsors, and advisors find the right Project Preparation Facility (PPF) for their infrastructure projects in emerging markets. It consolidates data from dozens of facilities into a single searchable, filterable platform.
The platform is designed for government officials, project developers, private sector sponsors, development finance institutions, and infrastructure advisors who need to identify and access project preparation support across emerging markets.
