Go Mongolia 🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳
A wonderful visit to Mongolia with @OdileRenaud and @MatteoPatrone3 to experience the vibrancy of the country.
Big thanks to @TakacsHannes, and EBRD Ulaanbaatar office.
Since inception, we, @EBRD, invested more than €2.4bn in 150 projects in Mongolia.
Back from #Mongolia where I received a very warm welcome from the President and Prime Minister and many other friends of the @EBRD.
The country has a vibrant private sector and we discussed ways of investing more in renewable energy, energy security and sustainable mining.
İstanbul joined our #EBRDGreenCities family in 2021, becoming one of the largest cities in the programme.
Join us on a walk across Türkiye's biggest economic hub, home to 19% of its population.
With support from #EBRDdonors: TaiwanBusiness - EBRD TC Fund.
We've approved a new 5-year @EBRD Country Strategy for Poland. We will work to
- accelerate the green transition
- support Polish companies' competitiveness through innovation, digitalisation & good governance
- strengthen resilience/economic integration

Concluding my trip to Egypt with a productive meeting with our partners in @SCZone and extremely interesting visits to the green hydrogen production facilities of @fertiglobe and the impressive operations of Port @Sokhna. Ma'assalama!
Delighted to sign my first ever deal in Egypt with Commercial International Bank with two financial lines to foster green transition investments and women entrepreneurship in the presence of the Governor of the Central Bank of Egypt!
Great to be at the Egypt- EU Investment Conference in Cairo. Two days of enlightening discussions and nurturing partnerships. @Egypt as the gateway to @Europe.
Leading @EBRD since 2020, an era of great global tension, has been an honour & privilege
I want to thank our shareholders for their support & trust
Now they have reelected me, I will strive to deliver even more impact, further transform #EBRD & expand cooperation with partners
A very warm welcome to our #EBRDDonors who are joining us in Yerevan for this year's Annual Donor Meeting. Looking forward to a day of rich discussions! @EBRD w/ @OdileRenaud@MatteoPatrone3 @ebrdInes #EBRDam
Diversity and an equal role for women in the economy, decision-making and policy bring better results for people, the planet and for profits.
@NadiaCalvino, @KGeorgieva and I on the economic power of gender equality on the eve of #IWD2024

Delighted to chair 1st AM for our Action for Equality and Gender Multi-Donor Fund A4EG @EBRD HQ. Thanks to @JapanGov, #Lithuania and #TaiwanBusiness-EBRD TC Fund for supporting us to deliver impact - creating access to skills + jobs – human capital is at the heart of what we do!
Our support for #Ukraine's economy is wide ranging and this evening at our HQ in London @Svyrydenko_Y and I discussed:
▪️ @EBRD's backing for reforms to the public sector
▪️ improving the investment climate
▪️ developing priority sectors to power rapid growth
The productive meeting with @EBRD President @OdileRenaud. The contribution of @EBRD to Ukraine's recovery is more than significant. Last year, they provided a record €2.1 billion to 🇺🇦. Half of these funds were allocated to support the private sector. It once again shows EBRD's sees the private sector as a cornerstone of Ukraine's recovery.
My first day at #WEF24 began with an important event devoted to support for #Ukraine with @ZelenskyyUa and @vonderleyen and many of its strongest supporters.
It is morally right to back Ukraine and the costs of not supporting it will far outweigh those of continuing to do so.
An opportunity to congratulate @DorinRecean in person - and the whole of Moldova - on the decision by @EU_Commission to open EU membership negotiations!
@EBRD will continue to support the country's economic development and reforms.
