    * ADB lending is classified as sovereign and nonsovereign. A sovereign loan is guaranteed by the national government, while a nonsovereign loan is not guaranteed by the national government.
    Nonsovereign operations refer to an ADB-financed transaction with a subsovereign, state-owned enterprise, other public private entity, or private sector entity as obligor or investee, normally without direct sovereign indemnity. In 2006, ADB's sovereign operations supported the infrastructure, capital market, and banking sectors, among others.
