US Policy on Co-Financing with Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank

This bill aims to ensure that the United States opposes programs and projects in multilateral development banks if they are co-financed by the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), unless the AIIB meets specific conditions. This means the U.S. will push for AIIB funds to be used in a manner consistent with its policies, potentially affecting the availability of financing for developing countries and how these projects are implemented.
Key points
The U.S. will vote against projects co-financed by the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) at multilateral development banks.
This opposition will stand unless the AIIB demonstrates it can provide grants and concessional assistance on terms similar to the International Development Association (IDA).
