The EBRD was established in 1991 when communism was crumbling in central and eastern Europe and ex-soviet countries needed support to nurture a new private sector in a democratic environment. Today the EBRD uses the tools of investment to help build market economies and democracies in 27 countries from central Europe to central Asia.
The EBRD does not have a formal and ongoing internship program, although unsolicited applications will be accepted. No form of acknowledgement will be sent nor will the Bank be able to answer calls requesting updates on progress.
