At present, IIFC is providing services to clients, mainly through donor-funded consultancy support. IIFC's own staff provide approximately 20 per cent of the advisory services, while the remaining 80 per cent is provided through hiring consultants. As a long-term development strategy for sustainable operations and part of its commercialization process, IIFC plans to increase and develop its in-house capacity and expertise to provide a larger percentage of the services in the future. IIFC sends its staff to various domestic and foreign training programmes on subjects related to project planning and development. It has been estimated that a transition period of about two years would be necessary to achieve a stage where IIFC could provide 60 per cent advisory services, while consultants could be hired to provide the remaining 40 per cent. IIFC also has a policy to fully commercialize its services as soon as possible. The services of IIFC would then become revenue-earning on a project development basis.
