Who We Are
We enable clients to build Infrastructure for Tomorrow (i4t)—green infrastructure with sustainability, innovation and connectivity at its core. We do this by unlocking finance that brings this vision to fruition. As our clients succeed in building i4t, society shares in that success.
As a multilateral development bank focused on developing Asia, but with members from all over the world, our investments in infrastructure and other productive sectors seek to foster sustainable economic development, create wealth and improve infrastructure connectivity.
We adapt and innovate constantly to deliver customized investment solutions that overcome the challenges our clients face. They count on our resilience to help them meet their objectives even during the most difficult times.
Prosperity and economic development for Asia is our goal. To realize this, we facilitate the i4t that empowers regions and their people with access to physical, digital and social services. This in turn contributes to local, regional and global sustainability.
Governance
Good governance is our hallmark and we strive to operate to the highest possible standards in transparency and accountability.




This governance model includes an Oversight Mechanism in line with principles of transparency, openness, independence and accountability. This innovative and flexible structure allowed us to act swiftly on the immediate social and economic needs of our Members during the pandemic, including more frequent and virtual meetings to facilitate the review and approval of projects and policies.

Our policies, strategies and thematic priorities are the building blocks of the Corporate Strategy launched in 2020.
