1. INTERNATIONAL ASPECTS OF FINANCIAL INSTITUTION
INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTION (IFIs) are financial institutions that have been
established by more than one country and hence are the subjects of international laws.
Their owners or shareholders are generally national government, although other
international institutions and other organizations occasionally figure as shareholders. The
most prominent IFI’s are creations of multiple nations, although some bilateral financial
institutions exist and are technically IFI’s. Many of these are multilateral development
banks (MDB).
