Bahrain Agency for International DevelopmentBAIDالعربية

Who we are

The Agency exists to put Bahraini development finance and expertise to work in partner countries, under terms that can be read by anyone.

Mission

To finance and deliver development projects with partner countries, in sectors where Bahrain has knowledge worth lending, and to be accountable for the results in public.

Vision

Partner institutions that are more capable after a project than before it — measured by what continues once the Agency has gone.

Strategic objectives

  1. Concentrate the portfolio in four priority sectors rather than spreading it thin.
  2. Decide on proposals to a published timetable, so that partners can plan around us.
  3. Pair every financing with technical cooperation, so that capacity is built alongside assets.
  4. Publish terms, disbursements and evaluations, including the unflattering ones.
