ISLAMABAD: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) continues to deliver on its goal of achieving a more prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific through increased development finance, more efficient strategic operations, and enhanced focus on partnerships and collaborations, says a new ADB performance review launched on Thursday.

The 2018 Development Effectiveness Review, the 12th in the series of annual performance reports prepared by ADB, was launched in Nadi, Fiji, at the 52nd Annual Meeting of ADB’s Board of Governors, according to a message received here.

The report, based on ADB’s corporate results framework, assesses the bank’s performance and progress in implementing its strategy across various results indicators.

“The 2018 DER highlights ADB’s efforts, and successes, in delivering on its mission of helping the Asia and Pacific region become more prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable,” said the Director General of ADB’s Strategy, Policy, and Partnerships Department Tomoyuki Kimura. “ADB will continue enhancing its operations to help more people in the Asia and Pacific region.”
