The Economic Development Cooperation Fund (EDCF) (Korean: 대외경제협력기금) is an agency created by the government of South Korea in 1987 to promote economic cooperation between South Korea and developing countries.[1][2] In addition to the EDCF, South Korea provides official development assistance (ODA) through the Korea International Cooperation Agency.[3]
The more than 500 projects[4][5] the EDCF has worked on to provide international cooperation include:
- US$70 million in loans to Ghana and Tanzania;
- US$200 million in aid to Bangladesh, the Philippines and Cambodia;[6]
- The Jalaur River Multi-Purpose Project Stage II;[7]
- Up to US$8 billion in long-term loans to Ukraine;[8] and
- US$1.7 billion for 30 development projects in Bangladesh.[9]
In 2025, the Ministry of Economy and Finance announced 14.1 trillion won in ODA to be provided over the following three years.[10]
