Government-supported Lines of Credit
Credit extended through the Exim Bank with Government of India support. This is money the borrowing government repays with interest — it is never counted as grant assistance.
Recorded assistance for Democratic Republic of the Congo currently includes repayable financing. Historical grant and development coverage is still being expanded, so this page should not be read as the full picture of India’s cooperation with Democratic Republic of the Congo.
