The Asia Pacific Project Preparation Facility (AP3F) is a $ 124.17 million multi-donor facility, managed by the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) Office of Public-Private Partnerships (OPPP). This project aims to build the capacities of developing countries in Asia to create public-private partnerships for infrastructure. The AP3F prioritizes technical assistance requests that contribute to climate resilience, sustainable development and regional economic integration, which enhances enabling reforms and government capacity development. The facility is co-financed by ADB ($14.27 million), Australia ($9 million), Japan ($71.35 million), and Republic of Korea ($ 7.14 million). Project activities include: (1) providing technical assistance to any ADB developing member country government to support the financial, legal, and technical advisory services required to prepare and structure public-private partnership (PPP) transactions. This includes project scoping, feasibility, preparation, structuring and tendering; and (2) supporting legal and regulatory reforms that facilitate private sector investments in infrastructure projects.
