Our products and services

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) offers a range of products and services. We provide tailored financial products, as well as advisory and policy reform services. 

In providing support for projects across dozens of business sectors and nearly 40 economies, we draw on three decades of expertise in our regions and align all of our operations with a strict and clear set of governance criteria.

The EBRD offers financial products tailored to each client. Prospective clients have to demonstrate that their proposed project or business meets the minimum eligibility requirements to be considered for EBRD involvement.  

EBRD financing for private sector projects generally ranges from US$ 5 million to US$ 250 million, in the form of loans or equity. The average EBRD investment is US$ 25 million.

Smaller projects may be financed through financial intermediaries or through special programmes for smaller direct investments in less advanced economies.

The forms of direct financing we offer are:

We specialise in providing financing, strategic business advice, training, mentoring, networking and other non-financial services to high-potential start-ups and micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), across the EBRD regions.

We provide more than just finance. The EBRD offers a wide range of advisory services to help private-sector companies in a variety of sectors prepare for financing, improve operations and adopt best practices. We also engage in policy dialogue to foster a conducive business environment for private-sector participation. 

The EBRD’s Vice President, Policy and Partnerships department leads the coordination of strategies, policies and related initiatives supporting the Bank’s transition mandate. It is also responsible for the mobilisation and management of donor funds and for the oversight of the EBRD’s engagement with key external stakeholders and organisations.

Working with other organisations and financial institutions has become a central feature of the Bank’s delivery model.
