Uzbekistan is also a member of the Asian Development Bank since 1995. ADB is a trustworthy partner for Uzbekistan and ADB provided 1.2 Billion $ credit for Uzbekistan last year. 29 successful projects have been completed with this credit. ADB's yearly conference was held in Central Asia for the first time in 4 May 2010. It is an important achievement for Uzbekistan because of its close partnership with ADB.
