Legal Agreements

ADB enters into a legal agreement(s) with an ADB member, its related institution or a regional institution for each public sector project, to specify the amount and source of the funding, repayment terms, and the project implementation arrangements.

If funding is by way of a loan, the terms and conditions of the loan will be specified in a Loan Agreement. If grant funding is involved for the project, then conditions of the grant will be specified in a Grant Agreement or in a Financing Agreement where the funding is partly loan and the remainder by grant. There are sometimes additional project related agreements. For example, where a third party which is not directly part of the ADB member counterpart is implementing a project, or part of a project, then a Project Agreement will also be entered into with that third party, regarding its obligations under the Project.
