Lesson
ADB s Countercyclical Support Facility has been instrumental in supporting countries receiving loans financed out of ordinary capital resources. However, at present, ADB has no modality for a financial crisis response operation for Asian Development Fund eligible countries. The special program loan in the Program Lending Policy is limited to ordinary capital resources countries and can only used to address balance of payment crises. 21 Likewise, emergency assistance under the Disaster and Emergency Assistance Policy (DEAP) does not include financial crisis response.
