This note summarizes the key IDB Sovereign-Guaranteed (SG) borrower defaults and loss rate statistics. The report shows how, since its incorporation, the performance of the Bank's SG loan portfolio has been outstanding, with no loss on principal, interest, or fees, only the financial losses resulting from foregone return on late interest payments during eight non-accrual events (with only five borrowing countries). The loss rates for resolved SG borrower non-accrual events do not include the ongoing episode with Venezuela.
