Abstract	:	More than thirty years have passed since the international Islamic Development Bank (IDB) was established in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in 1975, with the objective of fostering the economic and social development of member countries and Muslim communities in non-member countries, in accordance with the principles of Shari'ah (Islamic Law). Now, it is time to gauge its performance through statistical analysis of its data for the period 1975-2005, in order to assess how far it has succeeded or failed in achieving its objectives. The paper starts with the discussion of the role of development banks and the difficulties of finding appropriate measures with which to assess their performance and the ways followed by economists in overcoming this problem. It also reviews the literature in this field, and then it goes on, to discuss the results of the statistical analysis of the data extracted from the various annual reports of the bank for the last thirty years, using the standard financial ratios and comparative tabular and graphical analysis. This is in addition to, subject to availability of data, the use of the model of the Subsidy Dependence Index (SDI) suggested recently by Charles Okeahala and Victor Murendi (2004) in assessing the African Development Bank but which they could not use because of lack of data.
