Summary findings
- Mauritania is working to improve its public investment management framework to boost the efficiency of public investment and to make it more adaptable to climate change.
- The assessment applies the IMF Climate Public Investment Management Assessment (CPIMA) framework and updates an earlier Public Investment Management Assessment (PIMA) undertaken in 2020.
- The assessment finds that there have been improvements in Mauritania’s public investment management institutions since 2020, while room remains for further improvement.
- Like most other countries, Mauritania is at an early stage of incorporating climate aspects into public investment management.
- Some good progress has been made, notably on the planning side.
Progress since 2020
- Improvements noted in public investment management institutions compared with the 2020 PIMA.
- Continued gaps persist that require further institutional strengthening and reform.
Climate integration status
- Mauritania is at an early stage of incorporating climate aspects into public investment management.
- Notable progress has been made on planning for climate-related public investment, but broader integration across the public investment cycle remains limited.
Policy recommendations and reform timetable
- The assessment provides a progressive timetable for reforms.
- Reforms are based on international good practice and designed to strike a balance between the stated objectives of the authorities and existing capacities within the public administration.
