Asian Development Bank

Areas of Responsibility

ADB provides financial and technical assistance to its member countries to help them achieve sustainable and inclusive economic growth, reduce poverty, and improve the living standards of their citizens. The majority of funding comes from ADB's member countries, with Japan and the United States contributing the largest shares. Other key members include Australia, China, India, and South Korea.

ADB offers a range of financial products and services to its member countries, including loans, grants, technical assistance, and policy advice. It supports a wide range of sectors, including infrastructure development, energy, education, health, agriculture, and finance. In recent years, ADB has placed increasing emphasis on promoting environmental sustainability and addressing climate change in its development programs.

Structure and administration

ADB has a decentralized structure with a network of country offices and regional departments that work closely with governments, development partners, and civil society organizations to design and implement development projects. It also works with other multilateral development banks and international organizations to leverage resources and share knowledge and best practices.

Dependent territories

Some of the above-mentioned member states have other external territories dependent on them. These are not independent states, but they do have some economic and political autonomy. The ADB treaties apply to them at least in part. These countries are not listed as official member states.
