Data for the EU Institutions (EU Institutions – taken to include the European Investment Bank), which is also a member of the DAC, are included under “multilateral agencies”. A further separate line (EU Institutions + EU members) gives the sum of multilateral flows from the EU Institutions and total bilateral flows from the 15 European Union member countries that are also DAC members. The data on financial flows from multilateral sources cover the World Bank (including IBRD, IDA, IFC and the Trust Funds for the Global Environment Facility and the Montreal Protocol), IDB, AfDB, AsDB, CarDB, EBRD, EC, IFAD, GAVI, the Global Fund, concessional flows from the IMF, Nordic Development Fund and WHO.
