It primarily aim to accelerate the rate of growth. It helps industrialization specific and economic development in general. A development bank has the opport-unity to promote enterprises i.e. to conceive investment proposals and to stimulate others to pursue them or itself to carry them through, from ‘conception’ to ‘realization’.
