The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has been supporting the Government of Azerbaijan since 1999—having approved 23 loans and 3 grant projects totaling about $2 billion, 32 technical assistance projects valued at more than $18 million, and 7 private sector transactions worth about $168 million.
In 2014, ADB endorsed a country partnership strategy (CPS) for Azerbaijan, 2014–2018. The strategy aims to diversify the economy, foster new economic opportunities, promote inclusive growth, and reduce urban–rural disparities.
