Remedial Actions

Assessing the unique facts and circumstances of each case, ADB has imposed sanctions on firms for minimum periods of one to seven years, and individuals for minimum periods of one year to indefinitely.

ADB’s sanctions are for a minimum period (unless specified as indefinite), and reinstatement is not automatic; therefore, entities may remain ineligible beyond the minimum periods. At the conclusion of the minimum period, a firm or individual may request reinstatement, at which time ADB will reassess the entity’s eligibility to participate in ADB-financed activity.

ADB also reprimands firms and individuals where it determines that the circumstances of a case did not warrant more severe remedial action. Those firms and individuals remain eligible to participate in ADB-financed activity.

Disclosure

The list of parties ADB debars is not published, in accordance with ADB’s Public Communications Policy. (Read more.) In the interest of cooperation, harmonization and transparency, OAGI may determine that other international organizations and representatives or agencies of ADB member countries have a need to know the names of parties declared ineligible to participate in ADB-financed activity, or other information related to OAGI investigations.

OAGI will inform parties that ADB declares ineligible that ADB currently does not make public their names and that an attempt to participate in ADB-financed activities while ineligible will result in an extension of the sanction period and a notice on ADB’s website, including that party's name. Also, if OAGI finds it impossible to communicate with the subject of a decision (e.g., if the subject refuses to accept correspondence, or has moved and cannot be located), the Integrity Oversight Committee may approve posting the information on ADB’s website.
