The IDB offers Ordinary Capital (OC) sovereign borrowers flexible financing solutions to further borrower’s risk management capabilities in projects, lending programs and asset-liability management strategies.

The IDB offers guarantee loans made by private financial sources to public sector projects. Guarantees seek to improve financing conditions for projects in Latin America and the Caribbean and help attract investment in borrowing countries.

Concessional financing is offered to the IDB’s most vulnerable member countries. At present, Guyana, Honduras and Nicaragua qualify for some form of concessional financing that is provided via blended loans.

Grants are non-reimbursable funds provided for technical cooperation programs. Some grants may be repaid to the IDB if the program eventually obtains a loan, either from the Bank itself or another source. Grants can be financed by the IDB’s own financial resources or funds from third parties.
