The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank’s inaugural Partnership Report, Scaling Impact Through Collaboration: AIIB’s Partnerships in Action, reaffirms its commitment to multilateralism and partnership-driven development.
Launched at AIIB’s 10th Annual Meeting during a public seminar with senior delegates from AIIB Members, multilateral development banks (MDBs), development finance institutions (DFIs), philanthropic organizations, UN agencies, business leaders and CSOs, the report highlights the pivotal role of collaboration in delivering sustainable, inclusive infrastructure and supporting AIIB Members in achieving their development priorities.
"This report documents how AIIB has been working with its partners in support of its mission to finance Infrastructure for Tomorrow that will benefit communities today and generations to come,” said AIIB President and Chair of the Board of Directors Jin Liqun. “It reflects our deep belief in multilateralism and the power of partnerships to build high-quality sustainable infrastructure that is green, inclusive and future-ready for Asia and the world."
Case studies in the report illustrate how AIIB and its partners are co-creating solutions to urgent challenges via enabling connectivity and regional cooperation, tech-enabled infrastructure and private capital mobilization. They show how AIIB’s innovative partnership mechanisms and digital solutions such as AIIB+ help deliver transformative impact.
The report underscores AIIB’s four guiding principles for effective partnerships:
- Client focus – AIIB partnerships are tailored to meet Members’ development needs. The Bank remains responsive to financing demands while delivering innovative, efficient and responsible solutions.
- Value addition – AIIB brings value through efficient procedures, effective systems, and a strong commitment to client service.
- Operational adaptability – AIIB’s internal systems are designed to be flexible and efficient, enabling it to meet evolving clients and shareholders expectations.
- Institutional trust – Backed by a AAA-credit rating and strong liquidity assessment, AIIB upholds transparency and integrity in line with its policies.
Rodrigo Salvado, Director General of AIIB’s Operational Partnership Department, said: “Partnerships are how we turn vision into action. This report captures how working with clients and partners helps us unlock resources, share knowledge and deliver smarter infrastructure solutions across our Members. Guided by our strong client focus and value addition, AIIB has mobilized over USD60 billion in financing, co-financed over 130 projects, and built an extensive network of partners that is currently more than 60 strong.”
