About this database

Learn more about our investments

DEG believes that transparent information about its work and financing help fulfil its specific mandate as a development finance institution. That is why DEG regularly reviews and updates its disclosure policy.

On this website, you can find information on DEG’s new commitments for which DEG’s own funds have been used. Since 2015, we have published investment-related information on the investments financed using DEG funds and for which a contractual basis exists. 

The investment-related information is published once the contract has been entered into with the customer, provided the customer has given consent. The vast majority of our customers agree to disclose this information. Non-publication due to a legitimate interest of a customer occurs very rarely. The investment-related information is a summary of what was agreed on when concluding the contract. The information is available online for the entire period of the contractual relationship*.

Standardised disclosure of repeat investments applies. If a ‘repeat investment’ is not specified in the investment-related information in the database, it is always a first investment. 

If you would like to learn more about the respective policy and procedures, please do have a look at DEG’s disclosure policy. 

*Applies to financing committed since January 2022. Details of investments committed in 2020 and 2021 are available on DEG’s website for five years. 

 

Here you can find information on our new commitments at a glance. The information is published here once the contract has been signed with the customer and provided the customer has given consent. This works well: In the last two years we have published information on 90 percent of our commitments.
