The relationship between Ethiopia and the World Bank was formalized on December 27, 1945. [1]
Ethiopia's first projects approved by the World Bank supported the building of infrastructure such as roads and highways during the 1950s. Ethiopia first sought a loan for "Highway Project (01)", which was approved on September 13, 1950. This loan had a total commitment value of $5 million. [2] The goal of the project was to repair, rebuild, and construct new roads in Ethiopia after the Italian occupation from 1935 to 1941. [3]
Ethiopia joined the International Finance Corporation (IFC) on July 20, 1956 [4] and the International Development Association (IDA) on April 11, 1961. [5]
Ethiopia joined the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) on August 13, 1991. [6] However, Ethiopia did not join the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID). [7]
As Ethiopia is one of the poorest countries in Africa, in 2005 Ethiopia received a 100% loan debt relief from the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and the African Development Bank. [8]
The World Bank will contribute $300 million in May 2022 to help Ethiopia's conflict-affected regions recover and be rebuilt. [9]
