Provenance & notes
Bangladesh became an ADB member in 1973. Hoe Yun Jeong is the ADB Country Director for Bangladesh (appointed 2024). 2025 new sovereign financing commitment was $2.57 billion (vs $1.18 billion in 2024); active sovereign portfolio reported at about $10.8 billion across 48 projects. cumulative_commitment_usd left null: reported cumulative figures diverge by scope (about $42 billion sovereign+non-sovereign loans vs roughly $61 billion including grants and co-financing), so no single unambiguous figure is recorded. fy_figure_year set to calendar year 2025 to match the $2.57 billion / $10.8 billion figures, which are reported on a calendar-year basis.
