About this ranking
Countries receiving the most development aid, explained
Countries receiving the most development aid is a live ranking of the top 50 entries in finance and crypto by Net ODA received, built from public data published by World Bank Open Data. It was last refreshed on 2026-10-29. This is the first published snapshot; from the next refresh onwards the page will also show movers, new entries and a rank history chart.
Ukraine currently holds #1 with 38.9k current US$ million. Syrian Arab Republic is second with 9,206.28 current US$ million, which puts the leader 4.2 times ahead. Bangladesh completes the top three with 5,683.86 current US$ million. Together the top three account for about 66% of the combined top-10 total, which gives a quick sense of how concentrated this ranking is.
How it is measured: Net official development assistance (ODA) consists of disbursements of loans made on concessional terms (net of repayments of principal) and grants by official agencies of the members of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC), by multilateral institutions, and by non-DAC countries to promote economic development and welfare in countries and territories in the DAC list of ODA recipients. It includes loans with a grant element of at least 25 percent (calculated at a rate of discount of 10 percent). Data are in current U.S. dollars. Most recent year available per country, World Bank indicator DT.ODA.ODAT.CD. Caveat: Countries report in different years; each shows its latest available figure. Source: World Bank Open Data (CC BY 4.0). The full top 50 is on this page, with positions 11 to 50 one click away, and each entry links to its own profile showing every ranking it appears in.
Use this page to check who is number one right now, compare any two entries head to head, or test yourself with the quiz, which asks you to name all ten in three minutes. Year-end archives are available for 2026, freezing the ranking as it stood at the close of each year. Top10Earth never estimates or edits a value: each number is fetched from its source, hashed, stored and ranked by software, then checked by a quality gate before it is published. If a refresh fails the gate, the previous snapshot stays live and the problem is reviewed by a person.
