Public Development Banks and Development Financing Institutions Database
收藏资源简介：
Nowadays Public Development Banks (PDBs) and Development Financing Institutions (DFIs) are experiencing a renaissance worldwide as their usefulness is increasingly recognized by both academics and policymakers. PDBs and DFIs are public financial institutions initiated by governments to proactively achieve public policy objectives. They are potentially useful policy instruments for fixing market failures, incubating markets, coordinating public policies with stakeholders, and promoting economic structural transformation in an equitable and sustainable manner. But not all PDBs and DFIs have achieved positive development outcomes as expected. To fulfill their development potential, it is important to rigorously examine their roles, operations, and effectiveness to avoid pitfalls. But the in-depth academic research is scarce. One major reason behind the paucity of research is the lack of systematic efforts to identify these public financial institutions and collect relevant data. To fill this gap, the development financing research program of the Institute of New Structural Economics at Peking University (INSE) initiated to build the world's first development financing institution database in September 2017, and launched the database by disclosing the first comprehensive list of PDBs and DFIs and their basic data in May 2019. Recognizing INSE's pilot effort, French Development Agency (Agence Française de Développement, AFD), aims to identify those that could form a world coalition to emphasize the importance of incorporating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into the corporate strategies of PDBs and DFIs. On that basis, since November 2019, the INSE and the AFD have collaborated to build on the INSE’s pilot effort to strengthen first ever comprehensive database on PDBs and DFIs with rigorous criteria and methodologies. Since 2023 and 2024, Foundation for Studies and Research on International Development (Fondation pour les Études et Recherches sur le Développement International, FERDI), and School of Health Humanities (SHH) at Peking University joined as collaborating institutions to co-build the PDFIs database. The database aims to allow researchers to not only identify PDBs and DFIs worldwide in a comprehensive manner but also provide the information on their basic profile and financial indicators (such as official mandate and total assets). We hope that our pilot and persistent efforts to build the comprehensive database can promote original research on the rationales, operations, governance and performance of PDBs and DFIs to enhance our understanding of such important public financial institutions and realize their full potentials.

当前，全球范围内公共开发银行（Public Development Banks, PDBs）与开发性金融机构（Development Financing Institutions, DFIs）正迎来复兴，二者的重要价值日益得到学界与政策制定者的广泛认可。公共开发银行与开发性金融机构是由政府发起设立的公共金融机构，旨在主动实现公共政策目标。其作为政策工具，可有效弥补市场失灵、培育市场体系、协调公共政策与利益相关方的对接，并以公平可持续的方式推动经济结构转型。但并非所有公共开发银行与开发性金融机构都能达到预期的发展成效。为充分释放其发展潜力，需对其职能、运营与成效开展严谨审视，以规避各类发展陷阱。但当前相关深入学术研究仍较为匮乏，造成研究匮乏的核心原因之一，是尚未形成系统性工作以识别这类公共金融机构并收集相关数据。为填补这一研究空白，北京大学新结构经济学研究院（Institute of New Structural Economics at Peking University, INSE）的开发性金融研究项目于2017年9月启动建设全球首个开发性金融机构数据库，并于2019年5月首次公开该数据库的首批全球公共开发银行与开发性金融机构综合名录及基础数据，正式推出该数据库。鉴于北京大学新结构经济学研究院的试点工作成果，法国开发署（Agence Française de Développement, AFD）希望联合各方组建全球联盟，强调将可持续发展目标（Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs）纳入公共开发银行与开发性金融机构经营战略的重要性。在此基础上，自2019年11月起，北京大学新结构经济学研究院与法国开发署展开合作，依托前者的试点工作基础，以严谨的标准与方法论对全球首个公共开发银行与开发性金融机构综合数据库进行升级完善。2023年至2024年间，国际发展研究基金会（Fondation pour les Études et Recherches sur le Développement International, FERDI）与北京大学健康人文学院（School of Health Humanities, SHH）相继加入合作，共同参与该数据库的建设工作。本数据库旨在帮助研究人员全面识别全球范围内的公共开发银行与开发性金融机构，并提供其基本概况与财务指标（如官方使命宣言、总资产规模等）相关信息。我们希望，通过本数据库的试点建设与持续完善，能够推动学界针对公共开发银行与开发性金融机构的理论基础、运营模式、治理体系与绩效表现开展原创性研究，从而加深学界对这类重要公共金融机构的认知，并充分释放其发展潜力。若需了解该数据库的更多信息，请访问其数据可视化官网：http://www.dfidatabase.pku.edu.cn/
