In close collaboration with the CDs, the STF conducts upstream work to support and incubate new initiatives in frontier technologies, public-private partnership (PPP) advisory, and other productive sectors. It also guides the Bank's corporate strategy by setting thematic priorities such as: Green infrastructure, Technology-enabled infrastructure, Private capital mobilization (PCM), and Cross-border cooperation. In addition, the Department supports the Bank's efforts on cross-cutting themes including climate, gender and inclusivity, and nature.
STF further represents the Bank in international forums to address sectoral, thematic, and financing issues, actively networks with other development partners, and reinforces AIIB's reputation as a premier development institution contributing to the global development agenda.
