International financial institutions (IFIs)
are financial institutions that have been established by more than
one country, and hence are subjects of international laws. Their
owners or shareholders are generally national governments,

occasionally figure as shareholders. The most prominent IFIs are
creations of multiple nations, although some bilateral financial
institutions exist and are technically IFIs. Many of these are
multilateral development banks (MDB).
