EBRD
Organization: European Bank for Reconstruction and Development
About
The EBRD was established in 1991 to support the transition of former communist countries toward market-oriented economies and pluralistic democracy. It operates across 36 countries from Central Europe to Central Asia and the southern and eastern Mediterranean, investing in both private and public sector projects with a focus on green economy transition, financial sector development, and infrastructure.
Ukraine has been the EBRD’s largest single-country investment portfolio for multiple years. Since the full-scale invasion, EBRD committed over €3 billion in emergency and resilience financing, including trade facilitation, agricultural sector loans, energy infrastructure investment (including grid rehabilitation and renewable energy), and municipal infrastructure support. For humanitarian health actors, EBRD’s role is primarily systemic — its investments in energy and infrastructure recovery directly affect the operating environment of health facilities and supply chains.
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is a multilateral development bank that invests in private and public sector projects across emerging market economies, with a mandate to foster transition toward market economies and democratic governance. In Ukraine, EBRD focuses on private sector finance, infrastructure, and energy.
