The consultants currently being used by IIFC are funded by donors. Two consortia of consultants provide support in the areas of project development activities for the investment and non-investment projects, business development work, promotional activities, institutional aspects and capacity-building of public sector officials. IIFC has arrangements with the consortia of consultants for rapid mobilization of consultants from the date of engagement by the Government through either a DSA or a TSA. Rapid deployment of consultants is one of the greatest strengths of IIFC, which has been much appreciated by the concerned ministries and agencies.
