The source adds the following information: "Official development assistance (ODA) is defined as government aid designed to promote the economic development and welfare of developing countries. Loans and credits for military purposes are excluded."
Multilateral aid is channeled through agencies with the promotion of economic development as their goal, for instance the World Bank, UN agencies, and regional development agencies.
Net ODA is the sum received after loan repayments are subtracted.
