The Union Cabinet has given its green signal to India’s membership for European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), in a move to enhance India's international profile and promote its economic interests. The Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance is going to take necessary steps for that.
As per the government’s notification, the move will improve investment opportunities of the country as well as the competitive strength of the Indian firms, and provide an enhanced access to international markets in terms of business opportunities, procurement activities, consultancy assignments etc. Besides, it is expected to increase the scope of cooperation between India and EBRD through co-financing opportunities in manufacturing, services, Information Technology, and Energy. Going further, the membership of EBRD will also drive the growth of country’s export.
India will have to make minimum initial investment of approx 1 million euros for the membership and by this investment, the country will get the minimum 100 shares in the bank. The financial implication could be higher if India wants to buy more shares.
