### Summary
- TA information should be disseminated more widely.
- Wider dissemination will improve coordination with donors and other TA providers, exploit synergies, and enable the IMF to prioritize and leverage its limited TA resources.
- Wider dissemination supports key objectives under the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness.
- Donors to the IMF’s TA program have a legitimate interest in receiving information on TA financed by them, especially for their accountability to governments and legislators.
- For TA recipient countries, wider dissemination among different government agencies will strengthen ownership and facilitate more effective implementation of TA recommendations.
- Through publication, the membership and the public at large will benefit from a better understanding of best practices, and the IMF’s experiences in the provision of TA.

### Rationale and Expected Benefits
- Improved coordination among TA providers and donors.
- Better prioritization and leveraging of limited IMF TA resources.
- Enhanced donor accountability to their governments and legislators.
- Strengthened ownership within TA recipient countries through broader intra-government dissemination.
- Greater public and membership understanding of best practices and IMF TA experiences.
