The Eurasian Development Bank (EDB) and UAE-based private capital management company ACM Limited signed a memorandum of understanding on November 10 in Abu Dhabi to develop structured financing instruments and expand access to international capital markets, Trend News Agency reported. The signing took place during an event marking the opening of the EDB's office at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), attended by representatives of the UAE Ministry of Finance.

Under the memorandum, the parties plan to explore the development of fixed-income instruments, structured finance solutions, and investment funds. The cooperation will specifically target opportunities to connect capital from investors with financing projects across the UAE, China, Oman, and Central Asian countries.

The two institutions intend to assess opportunities to structure debt instruments, including credit-linked notes (CLNs) and fixed-income products, tailored to market demand and client financing requirements. The agreement also outlines the exchange of market expertise and best practices in financial product development and asset management.

EDB Management Board Chairman Nikolai Podguzov stated that expanding cooperation with financial institutions in Gulf nations is a key component of the bank's push to mobilize international capital for Eurasian development projects and broaden its investor base. ACM CEO Maxim Kuzyakin noted that the collaboration will pair the EDB's regional knowledge with ACM's experience in financial structuring.
