* Its investment portfolio is expected to reach at least US $4.7 billion by the end of 2017. This will be achieved by launching new projects to the tune of at least US $3.7 billion in 2013-2017.{{citation needed|date=November 2019}}
* The share of projects with an integration effect in the investment portfolio will be at least 50% by the end of 2017. The projects with an integration effect include:

===Managing the Eurasian Fund for Stabilization and Development===
Main article: EurAsEC Anti-Crisis Fund

The EurAsEC Anti-Crisis Fund totalling US $8.513 billion was established by the governments of six countries: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and Tajikistan. Its main goals are to help its member countries mitigate the negative effects of the global financial crisis, to ensure their long-term economic and financial stability, and to foster integration.

In June 2009, member states appointed EDB the manager. As the fund manager, EDB prepares and implements its programme.

In June 2015 fund was renamed as the Eurasian Fund for Stabilization and Developmentd because of the abolition of the EurAsEC as a result of the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union.

The fund has two instruments at its disposal: financial credits to support budgets, balances of payments, and national currencies; and investment credits for international projects. In addition to financial and investment credits, it can provide grants to its member states.

In 2010-2011, the fund authorised financial credit for Tajikistan (US$70&nbsp;million) and Belarus (US$3&nbsp;billion). To date,{{when|date=September 2020}} US $2.63&nbsp;billion has been disbursed under these loans.

In December 2013 the fund's council approved the financing for two investment projects in the Kyrgyz Republic:
* US $60 million to reconstruct a section of the Bishkek-Osh road corridor
* US $20 million to purchase agricultural equipment
EDB and the Kyrgyz Republic signed agreements to finance these projects in March 2014.

In July 2014 the fund's council decided to provide a US $150 million investment credit to Armenia to finance the construction of the North-South road corridor (Phase 4). In April 2015 the bank and the Republic of Armenia signed an agreement to finance this project.

In addition, the Fund's Council approved blueprints for four projects:
* reconstruction of the Toktogul HPP in Kyrgyzstan (US $75 million), including the replacement of Units 2 and 4
* commissioning of Unit 2 at the Kambarata 2 HPP in Kyrgyzstan (US $80 million)
* upgrade of irrigation facilities in Armenia (US $40 million)
* distribution network infrastructure construction to export agricultural produce from the Kyrgyz Republic to the Customs Union member states (US $25 million)

===Technical assistance===

In 2008, the bank established a technical assistance fund to provide financial support for pre-investment and innovation research at the international, national and sector levels, aimed at deepening Eurasian integration, strengthening market infrastructure and promoting sustainable economic growth in its member states.

This fund implements the following programmes:
* technical assistance as part of financing investment projects
* the Regional Integration Studies Programme
* the Innovative Economy Support Programme
* the Programme of Support for Interregional and International Programmes

The total portfolio includes 57 projects and has a value of about US $6.5 million.

===Research===

EDB's Strategy and Research Department implements large-scale research and applied projects, holds regular conferences and round tables; and publishes research, sector-specific and specialist reports and macroeconomic reviews providing analysing and forecasts relating to the economic development of the region. Materials published by the Bank discuss regional integration, the operations of other development banks and the financing of investment projects in the post-Soviet space.

The deepening and widening of integration in Eurasia made possible by the establishment of the Customs Union and the Single Economic Space by Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia are processes that require comprehensive analysis. EDB established the Centre for Integration Studies in 2011 to provide this analysis. The centre carries out research and drafts reports and recommendations for EDB's member-state governments. It also hosts round tables and expert group meetings on a wide range of issues concerning regional economic integration.
