The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) announced that it has reached a significant milestone in Serbia this year, having invested over €10 billion in the country since 2001 through nearly 400 projects.
In Belgrade, the bank has financed the Gazela and Ada bridges, public utility services, and the renovation of public buildings, as well as two major public-private partnerships – the airport and the waste-to-energy project in Vinča.
“We are very proud of this milestone and the many impactful projects over the years, which demonstrate the strength of our partnerships in Serbia and the dedication of our growing team in Belgrade,” said Matteo Colangeli, EBRD Regional Head for the Western Balkans.
He noted that in the past three years, the EBRD has expanded its operations, reaching around €800 million annually, with significant funds mobilized from donors and other investors.
“We plan to continue expanding our presence in the country, helping to accelerate growth, enhance competitiveness, and promote a resilient and sustainable economy,” Colangeli added.
