Asian Development Fund

Asian Development Fund X

The Asian Development Fund (ADF) X replenishment discussions were concluded in Madrid in May 2008. Thirty donor members of ADB agreed on a total replenishment size of Special Drawing Rights (SDR) 7.1 billion ($11.3 billion), which consist of SDR6.9 billion for ADF X and SDR0.2 billion (equivalent to 3% of the total replenishment) for the fourth replenishment of the Technical Assistance Special Fund. Donors pledged new burden-shared contributions of SDR2.6 billion ($4.2 billion), plus some additional contributions.

ADF X covers the four-year period from 2009 to 2012. The ADF X replenishment amount is significantly higher than the $7 billion agreed at the conclusion of ADF IX covering the period 2005 to 2008.
