Summary
- Based on the Executive Board’s guidance during the first stage of the Review of Low Income Countries (LIC) Facilities, this paper suggests a number of refinements to the facilities and instruments that are consistent with the self-sustainability of the Poverty Reduction and Growth Trust (PRGT).
- The proposals seek to improve the tailoring and flexibility of Fund support.
- Taken together with those advanced in the parallel paper on PRGT eligibility, the proposals are projected to keep the average annual demand for PRGT resources within a range consistent with the Board’s approved strategy to make the PRGT self-sustaining over the period 2013–35.
- The paper states: "The proposals are as follows." (no further proposal details are provided on this page).
Key themes and focus
- Refinements to LIC facilities and instruments to enhance tailoring and flexibility.
- Consistency with self-sustainability objectives for the PRGT.
- Interaction with parallel PRGT eligibility proposals to contain average annual demand for PRGT resources within the Board’s approved strategy over 2013–35.
