Abstract
<p>International Development Banks (IDBs) such as the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) – part of the World Bank Group are providing billions of dollars of loans for infrastructure on an annual basis. In addition, they provide technical assistance and grant aid. Technical assistance is usually contracted to an international consult with an associated local firm to strengthen the capability of the executing agency, usually a Government ministry responsible for delivery of the project. As this paper is focused on infrastructure it is more likely to be an organization such as a Department of Public Works or a Ministry of Construction.</p>
