The MIF stands as a cornerstone for financing the infrastructure projects of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s administration, which are crucial to achieving sustained and inclusive economic growth.

President Marcos suspended the implementation of the sovereign wealth fund's rules and regulations, citing the need for further study, with Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin issuing a memorandum to the Bureau of the Treasury, Land Bank of the Philippines (LandBank), and the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP).
