Abstract

Amid the transformation of the global economy, multilateral development banks (MDBs) are becoming a key pillar of national development. Their role extends far beyond traditional lending, forming the foundation for long-term growth. This report provides a comprehensive analysis of MDBs — from their history and mandates to the geography of their operations, equity capital structure, and credit ratings. Particular attention is paid to MDB performance indicators, including total assets and capital, investment activity, and financing in local currencies. The report also examines the prospects for the development of the MDB system and answers key questions: Which sectors will become priorities for MDB investment? How many multilateral development banks will there be in 10 years? What mechanisms will allow MDBs to expand their lending volumes?
