RECORD INVESTMENT

€10.1 billion

Annual Bank Investment

CORONAVIRUS RESPONSE

We are committing all our activity in 2020-21, worth up to €21 billion, to help our regions counter the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Who we are

We invest in changing people’s lives by creating open markets and promoting sustainable growth in 38 economies, from Morocco to Mongolia. Across three continents, we finance projects that strengthen the private sector and help make economies more competitive, well-governed, green, inclusive, resilient and integrated. We also support the transition to a well-functioning market system in places on the path towards democracy by engaging in policy reform and by providing donor-funded technical assistance and advisory services. Donor funds play a vital role in ensuring the success of the EBRD’s activities and act as a catalyst for our investment.

What we do

Our projects deliver a market-based financial return while having a measurable economic, social or environmental impact. From our headquarters in London and our network of Resident Offices, we work mainly with private clients, although we also finance public companies and municipal entities in support of projects that deliver essential infrastructure and services. EBRD loans and equity investments follow sound-banking principles, ensuring that the returns are commensurate with the risks, and finance projects that would not be funded solely by commercial banks.

Founded in 1991, we are owned by 69 countries, as well as the European Union and the European Investment Bank.
