ISLAMABAD: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) will provide $2.5 billion in approved financing to Pakistan in 2019, it said in a tweet on Wednesday.
“ADB will provide $2.5 billion in approved financing to Pakistan in 2019, and recently approved Country Operations Business Plan (COBP) 2020-2022 will increase average lending to $2.4 billion a year - a record increase over the $1.4 billion average from 2015 to 2018," the bank said.
In addition, ADB will leverage lending through the mobilization of co-financing and funding from other sources, including regional concessional resources.
The new COBP will support Pakistan’s development goals and complement efforts by other development partners, it added.
