The Bulgarian Development Bank has officially joined the Investment Fund of the Three Seas Initiative and is already a Class A shareholder with a contribution of EUR 20 million. The fund is expected to raise 5 billion euros and will increase funding for investments and co-operation between countries in the Black, Adriatic and Baltic Seas.

The countries of the initiative represent 22% of the population in the EU, create 10% of the EU GDP and have economic growth above the community average. But trade between them is still limited and needs improved infrastructure in transport, energy and information technology, BGNES has reported. Bulgaria has already accepted the presidency of the initiative in 2021.
