Rehabilitation of the wellfield production installation Ouled Abdallah- FQUIH BEN SALEH

Item Description:

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the “EBRD”) is an international financial institution. The EBRD was established by treaty in 1990 to foster the transition towards open market oriented economies and to promote private and entrepreneurial initiatives in Central and Eastern Europe, the Baltic States and the Commonwealth of Independent States that are committed to and applying the principles of multiparty democracy, pluralism and market economics.

Over time EBRD’s regions of operations have expanded to include new countries such as Mongolia, Turkey, Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Kosovo, Cyprus, Greece and Lebanon. Furthermore, while the EBRD remains as committed to fulfilling its original mandate as ever, its understanding of what the transition to market economics actually entails has evolved in the light of recent history. At the beginning of 2017, for example, EBRD began applying a new transition concept which defines a well-functioning market economy as more than just competitive; it should be  inclusive, well-governed, green, resilient and integrated as well.

The EBRD has 71 members (69 countries, the European Union and the European Investment Bank). Further information about the EBRD’s roles and activities can be found on the EBRD’s website: http://www.ebrd.com.

The Headquarters of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the “EBRD” or the “Bank”) is situated at One Exchange Square, London EC2A 2JN. The HQ building forms part of the Broadgate Development adjacent to Liverpool Street Station, London EC2.
