“Our ratings on the Asian Development Bank (AsDB) reflect
our assessment of the bank's extremely strong business
profile and financial profile. A transfer of Asian Development
Fund (ADF) loans and certain other assets to AsDB's
Ordinary Capital Resources (OCR) took effect on Jan. 1,
2017. The move boosted AsDB's total lending capacity
substantially due to the addition of nonleveraged ADF equity
to the OCR.”– Standard and Poor’s, July 2017
“..credit profile reflects the bank's strong capital adequacy,
ample liquidity buffers and unfettered market access.
Additionally, the bank's preferred creditor status and strong
shareholder support enhance its financial performance. The
ADB’s credit strengths, which have remained intact through
recent periods of global and regional economic stress, reflect
in part its prudent financial management, including an
effective risk management framework.” – Moody’s, August
2017
“Capitalisation and concentration metrics in particular have
improved considerably, and have further enhanced the
AsDB’s solvency assessment.”
– FitchRatings, August 2017
AAA Rating based on
Strong Fundamentals▪ ADB is a leading AAA borrower in international and domestic capital markets, having issued bonds across various
markets in 35 currencies.
▪ Borrowings finance regular Ordinary Capital Resources (OCR) operations. Regular OCR loans are generally made
to developing members that have attained a higher level of economic development.
▪ ADB’s debt securities carry the highest possible investment ratings from major international credit rating agencies.

Trade & Forfaiting Review
ADB raises US$1.25bn from green bonds NEWS | 4 August 2017
Asian Development Bank (ADB) has raised US$1.25bn through the issue of a US$750m five-year green bond, and a US$500m 10-year dual tranche green bond.
Proceeds from the issues will be used to fund climate change mitigation and adaptation projects.
It follows a growing trend of development finance institutions raising funds by issuing green bonds, with German development bank Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau(US$2bn), Turkish development bank Turkiye Sinai Kalkinma Bankasi ( US$300m), and the IFC (US$100) all issuing similar bonds of their own.
“ADB is responding to the rapidly growing demand for green bonds with our second dual-tranche outing and our first 5-year green bond offering,” said ADB treasurer Pierre Van Peteghem.
“We have found the dual-pronged approach taken today to be an efficient means of reaching ethical investors active at different segments of the yield curve. This approach means that ADB is reaching an increasing number of investors who understand the importance of the green label.”
In 2015 ADB set its sights on doubling annual climate change financing from US$3bn to US$6bn by 2020, with US$4bn going to mitigation projects such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable transport, and for the construction of smart cities.
The five-year bond (US$750m) has a coupon rate of 1.875% per annum, payable semi-annually and a maturity date of 10 August 2022. The 10-year bond (US$500m) has a coupon rate of 2.375% per annum, payable semi-annually and a maturity date of 10 August 2027. Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Crédit Agricole, and JP Morgan were lead managers, while a syndicate group made up of Citi, HSBC, Morgan Stanley, and TD Securities was also formed.

ADB adds A$350 million to its 2022 Kangaroo
Last Updated on Tuesday, 14 February 2017 16:10
Asian Development Bank (ADB) (AAA/Aaa/AAA) priced a tap to its January 2022 Kangaroo bond on 14 February. The transaction was upsized from A$200 million (US$153.3 million) minimum volume and priced in line with guidance of 40 basis points over semi-quarterly swap.
According to KangaNews data, the tap issue will be the first increase to ADB’s January 2022 Australian dollar line, after it was introduced for A$300 million at 42 basis points over swap on January 10.

ADB joins $4bn club
The Asian Development Bank on Wednesday hit the $4bn mark for the first time with a dollar benchmark, taking advantage of a dearth of supply and offering a bit of juice to harvest a hefty amount of cash.By Craig McGlashan 26 Apr 2017
Leads BMO Capital Markets, Citi, Deutsche Bank, and RBC Capital Markets priced the $4 billion May 2020 global bond at minus 5bp after taking orders of over $5.4bn.
The deal moved through several pricing steps, first hitting screens on Tuesday with initial price thoughts of minus 4bp area.
“I was a bit surprised because I had the ADB’s January 2020 around minus 13bp and the IADB’s May 2020 [from April] at minus 8bp, so I thought it looked a bit generous in terms of new issue premium,” said a head of SSA DCM away from the trade.
“But in the end I understand ADB wanted size, so it was the right strategy.”
After taking indications of interest of over $2.9bn, books opened officially on
Wednesday morning around 8am with guidance unchanged. Just under two hours later, with orders over $3.7bn, the leads revised guidance to 5bp area before pricing in line with that. The final book was over $5.4bn.
It is the second time this year that ADB has broken its size record for a dollar benchmark, with a $3.75bn five year in February its previous biggest.
“This shows ADB has no problem doing larger deals to face its substantially larger funding programme this year,” said a head of SSA syndicate away from the deal. “It picked a good window, with none of the big guys looking and the capacity for new dollar supply quite high after a lack of deals over the last few weeks.”

PROJECT SUMMARY:
Meeting the need for reliable and affordable electricity is a challenge for
Bangladesh as the country seeks to consolidate its transition to middle-
income country status by 2021. Apart from addressing infrastructure
constraints and improving the country’s transmission and distribution
networks, the project will also support productive energy usage in rural
areas, enhanced safety for customers, improvements in rural distribution
management, and interventions to support women employees in the
power sector.
The project includes the construction of a 174 kilometer (km) high-
voltage, 400 kV transmission link between southern Bangladesh and
Dhaka, design and installation of control and automation systems to
improve the distribution network in areas serviced by the Dhaka
Electricity Supply Company, rehabilitation and expansion of over 50,000
km of rural distribution network across the country, and support on
project design, investment planning, and regulatory compliance in the
power sector agencies.
The project will contribute to the Government of Bangladesh’s goal of
giving people 100% access to power by 2021, with about 875,000
households benefiting from the distribution investments by 2020. The
total cost of the project is $1.059 billion, with the government contributing
$441 million in counterpart funding.

PROJECT SUMMARY:
The Secondary Road Improvement Project — which will improve a 50
kilometer stretch of road from Dzirula to Chumateleti via Kharagauli
and other short access roads to local communities — will increase the
mobility of and accessibility for local residents and tourists visiting the
area, and increasing economic activity in the region. The road will
provide a vital alternative to the Khevi-Ubisa highway to facilitate
international and national traffic during highway construction.
The secondary road, which serves 30,000 people residing in the area,
will be rehabilitated to improve transport connectivity and road safety.
The road will be upgraded and bridges will be rehabilitated, improving
access to markets and public services for the communities in this
region. Access roads to the nearby Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park
and railway stations along the road will also be improved.

PROJECT SUMMARY:
India, with its massive population and continuously growing power-
hungry economy, has been experiencing power deficits. The lack of a
reliable electricity supply is constraining the country’s growth potential
and making electricity access difficult for 311 million people.
Government efforts to address this increasing energy demand include
the development of solar parks.
The project will improve the capacity and efficiency of interstate
transmission networks, particularly in transmitting the electricity
generated from the new solar parks to the national grid. Apart from
the evacuation of 2,500 megawatts (MW) of power from solar parks
in Bhadla, Rajasthan, and 700 MW from Banaskantha, Gujarat,
POWERGRID is also including two additional subprojects that will
increase solar power generation by 4.2 gigawatt and lessen carbon
emissions by over 7 million tons every year.
The Solar Transmission Sector Project is also the first project to be
implemented following the usage of agency-level country safeguards
and procurement systems for POWERGRID to speed up processes
while providing autonomy and ownership of the project.

PROJECT SUMMARY:
The project will facilitate direct and efficient operation of both freight
and passenger train services linking major cities in the Fergana
Valley — home to nearly a third of Uzbekistan’s population — with
Tashkent, the country’s capital. The project will help improve
transport connectivity and encourage growth and job creation in the
Fergana Valley. It will also increase regional trade along CAREC’s
Corridor 2 as well as improve environmental and safety performance
of the railway. An expected 10,000 tons of CO2 will be saved every
year as a result of the project.
The total project cost is estimated at $177.45 million, with
O’zbekiston Temir Yo’llari (UTY) — the public railway company —
and the government contributing $97.45 million. ADB’s investment
will finance supervision consultants, procurement of plant,
procurement of maintenance equipment and machinery, and
procurement of materials for external power supply.
The project is in contribution to the ongoing efforts of UTY and the
government in upgrading Uzbekistan’s Soviet-era railway network. It
builds on the successes of other projects, including one which
recently completed the electrification of a 140 km railway track
between the historical cities of Samarkand and Karshi in the south of
the country.

Lending Limitation: Under the policy, the total amount of disbursed loans, disbursed equity investments,
and the related prudential buffer, and the maximum amount that could be demanded from ADB under its
guarantee portfolio may not exceed the total of ADB’s unimpaired subscribed capital, reserves, and surplus,
exclusive of the special reserve.
Borrowing limitation: ADB’s borrowing policy limits ADB’s gross outstanding borrowings to no more than
the sum of callable capital of non-borrowing members, paid-in capital, and reserves (including surplus).
Risk Bearing Capacity: ADB assesses its capital adequacy using a stress test methodology that entails,
among other things, estimated non-accrual shocks and their impact on ADB's capital and income over the
next 5 years. The framework provides ADB with the ability to assess its capital adequacy based on
changes in risk exposure, as well as on its characteristics as an MDB, including callable capital, preferred
creditor status, and developmental mandate.
Conservative Investment Guidelines: The maximum allowable average duration of all investments
outstanding is 4 years, while the target policy duration for the USD core portfolio is 3 years, with +/- one
year allowable deviation. ADB’s investment guidelines permit only high quality instruments such as
government and government-agency debt and highly-rated corporate securities. As a second line of
defense, the Office of Risk Management monitors the investment portfolio on a daily basis and ensures
compliance with prescribed limits.

▪ Approved on 20 July 2009, the new Safeguard Policy Statement reaffirms and strengthens ADB’s
commitment to ensuring that borrowers/clients meet ADB safeguard requirements to avoid, minimize,
mitigate and/or compensate adverse impacts of ADB operations on the environment and project-
affected people.
▪ The policy commits ADB to assessing country safeguard systems, assisting borrowers/clients to
strengthen both their approaches and country capacity to manage environmental and social risks,
and to increasing ADB oversight during implementation.
▪ As a central part of ADB's mission to promote environmentally sustainable and inclusive economic
growth, the new Safeguard Policy Statement consolidates and builds upon current ADB policies on
Environment, Indigenous Peoples and Involuntary Resettlement that are already applied to all bank-
supported projects in developing member countries (DMCs).
▪ The policy ensures that ADB’s safeguards are harmonized with other multilateral development banks
and remain relevant to the evolving needs of DMCs and private sector clients.
▪ The policy contains new provisions on biodiversity conservation, community health and safety, and
physical cultural resources. Key features include emphasis on capacity development of borrowers
and more attention to safeguard implementation and supervision.
▪ The Safeguard Policy Statement became effective on 20 January 2010.

▪ Developing good governance and fighting corruption are core ADB strategic objectives and are crucial to effective, transparent and
accountable aid, to which ADB committed by endorsing the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness.
▪ ADB’s Office of Anticorruption and Integrity (OAI), an independent body since October 2009, is the initial point of contact for allegations of
integrity violations involving ADB-related activities or ADB staff. Its mission is to ensure ADB and its partners maintain the highest ethical
and professional standards, and prevent resources intended to improve the lives of the poor from being used to line the pockets of the
unscrupulous.
▪ Any party found to have committed fraudulent, corrupt, coercive, collusive, obstructive practices, or other integrity violations identified by
ADB risks being sanctioned with debarment. Debarred entities are ineligible to participate in ADB-financed, administered or supported
activities. A debarred firm’s ineligibility extends to all employees and officers of a firm, and may extend to other principals and contractual
employees of the firm. Debarred individuals may not participate in ADB-related activity, as individuals or through nomination by an eligible
firm, unless they have completely disassociated themselves with an ineligible firm.
▪ Following the Harmonized Framework adopted by MDBs in 2006, the Agreement on Cross-Debarment was signed by ADB, the World Bank
Group, the African Development Bank (AfDB), the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and
Development (EBRD) in Luxembourg on 9 April 2010. An important global milestone in the fight against corruption, this Agreement allows
that an entity debarred by one of the participating MDBs be subsequently cross-debarred by the other participating MDBs, and constitutes an
important step in strengthening global anticorruption efforts.
▪ The base sanction for integrity violations is 3-year debarment. The Integrity Oversight Committee (IOC) may impose a greater or lesser
debarment period depending on the circumstances of each case. The IOC will be guided by the following ranges: 1) First debarments
(including cases where a party has previously been given a reprimand) – 1 year to indefinite for individuals and 1 to 7 years for firms, 2)
Second debarments – up to indefinite for individuals and up to 10 years for firms, 3) Subsequent debarments – up to indefinite for individuals
and up to 20 years for firms.
▪ In accordance with ADB’s Anticorruption Policy, ADB’s zero tolerance to corruption is linked to broader support for governance and
improvement in the quality and capacities of developing member countries (DMCs), with fraud and corruption detection training given to
government agencies in several of these DMCs.
▪ ADB also organizes knowledge support activities to improve integrity awareness and skills. Since 2010 it is mandatory for all ADB staff to be
briefed on the importance of fighting corruption and adherence to ADB’s Anticorruption Policy.

▪ The Investment Climate Facilitation Fund (ICFF) was established by the Government of Japan (GOJ) and the Asian
Development Bank (ADB) in 2008 as a trust fund under the Regional Cooperation and Integration Financing Partnership
Facility (RCIFPF) of ADB.
▪ The objective of ICFF is to promote investments in ADB’s developing member countries (DMCs) and facilitate regional
cooperation and integration (RCI) through the construction of basic infrastructure, improvements in the investment climate,
capacity building, and promotion of good governance, among others.
▪ Activities to be supported by ICFF are projects that:
a. require collective efforts and actions of two or more countries to jointly respond to cross-border issues;
b. are national in nature, but with significant regional dimensions and/or implications;
c. facilitate regional policy dialogue, including the establishment of regional policies for greater RCI;
d. support research and promote knowledge generation and dissemination among DMCs in the area of RCI;
e. strengthen institutional capacity of regional and/or subregional groupings; or
f. support regional partnership building with international institutions.
▪ All ADB DMCs are eligible for support from ICFF. Funding priority will be given to projects that promote financial sector
development and regional investment. Likewise, projects which will promote the visibility of ICFF as well as those which
will be implemented in cooperation with Japanese aid agencies will be prioritized.
▪ ADB has been appointed by GOJ as the administrator of ICFF.
▪ Project implementation, supervision, and monitoring are conducted by the concerned departments and offices following
ADB’s standard policies, procedures, and guidelines, including consulting services and procurement, social and
environmental safeguards, financial management and reporting, and anticorruption and governance, as amended from
time to time.
▪ Total funds committed amounted to approximately $31.5 million as of 31 December 2017.
