This book explores the evolution of the 30 functioning multilateral development banks (MDBs). That Inter-American Bank did not eventuate but was a precursor to the World Bank being negotiated at Bretton Woods in 1944. MDBs have their roots in the growing system of international finance and multilateral cooperation, with the first recognisable MDB being proposed by Latin America in financial cooperation with the US in the late 1930s.
They operate in both the Global North and South, though there are more MDBs focusing on emerging and Since then, a complex network of regional, sub-regional, and specialised development banks has progressively emerged across the globe, including two significant recent entrants established by China and the BRICS.MDBs arrange loans, credits, and guarantees for investment in member states, generally with the stated aim of fostering economic growth.
