Country Offices

Across the world, the IDB's country offices work toward the common goal of improving lives in Latin America and the Caribbean.  

Conjunto de Banderas de numerosas naciones. Integración regional - Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo - BID

The Bank's headquarters is in Washington, D.C. Our offices are located in the 26 Latin American and Caribbean countries we serve by financing programs and projects.

Country offices carry out a crucial role in the IDB's relationship with public and private sector clients and the preparation, execution, and supervision of operations. We also have offices in Asia (Tokyo, Japan) and Europe (Madrid, Spain) focused on resource mobilization with donors. 

To articulate the work of the IDB in each of its borrowing member countries, the Bank prepares joint Country Strategies.
