KIND Hosts Investment Briefing Session for the PIS Phase II Fund

- Fund targeting KRW 1.1 trillion in total commitments enters full-scale investment phase with KRW 260 billion already approved for investment

- Investment support measures introduced to companies and asset managers, along with one-on-one investment consultations

​The Korea Overseas Infrastructure & Urban Development Corporation (KIND), led by President and CEO Bokhwan Kim, announced that it hosted an investment briefing session for the Global Plant, Infrastructure, and Smart City (PIS) Phase II Fund on June 24 at the Two IFC Forum in Yeouido, Seoul. The event was attended by Korean companies and asset management firms interested in overseas investment opportunities.

The briefing session was organized to identify investment projects that can support Korean companies in expanding into overseas public-private partnership and investment development projects, thereby promoting exports and overseas contract awards. It also aimed to facilitate investment approvals for blind funds and encourage the establishment of project funds*. During the event, KIND introduced the key features and investment guidelines of the PIS Phase II Fund and shared successful investment cases financed through the fund. Following the presentation, one-on-one consultations were held with interested companies and asset managers.

*Project funds are funds established through the identification and development of individual projects for investment in a specific project.

The PIS Phase II Fund aims to raise a total of KRW 1.1 trillion. In August 2025, the fund successfully completed the formation of a KRW 700 billion blind fund and has since entered the full-scale investment stage. To date, investment approvals totaling KRW 260 billion have been secured.

A KIND official stated, “This event demonstrated the strong market interest in the PIS Phase II Fund and provided a foundation for linking the needs of Korean companies with practical financial support. KIND will continue to leverage the PIS Fund and other policy-finance platforms to comprehensively support Korean companies in expanding their presence in overseas markets.”

The event was attended by approximately 100 representatives from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT), Korean companies, and asset management firms. In particular, participants showed strong interest in the detailed presentations on projects financed through the PIS Fund, as well as discussions on how companies and fund managers can utilize the PIS Phase II Fund to support overseas expansion strategies linked to international project awards and exports.
