Abstract

The Country Partnership Framework (CPF) follows three distinct periods that have framed the World Bank Group's (WBG's) relationship with Ecuador. There was an extended period (FY07-FY14) in which the WBG had a limited dialogue with the Government of Ecuador (GoE, the Government), followed by a two-year period in which the policy dialogue, analytical work and lending operations were re-initiated in targeted areas of engagement, under the framework of the FY14-FY15 Interim Strategy Note (ISN). Finally, in early 2016 during a period of uncertainty amidst a rapidly changing context, the WBG Country Engagement Note for the period FY16-FY17 provided the structure for a continued reengagement in limited, focused areas, and helped develop deeper knowledge about Ecuador's broader development challenges through strategic analytical work that will help advance towards the preparation of a broader, medium-term engagement framework for the WBG. The CPF represents a significant scale up of the WBG's ongoing engagement in Ecuador and requires the WBG, the World Bank (WB), the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) to work in a closely coordinated and complementary fashion in support of the CPF objectives and program. The WB, IFC, and MIGA will continue working together to deliver top quality support to Ecuador's efforts at building a thriving private sector, and maximize finance for development, including in the design of Development Policy Financing (DPF) operations. In this new context, the WBG will be: (i) front-loading its financial support for the current efforts at macro-stabilization, revival of the private sector, and protection of the poor and vulnerable; (ii) continuing to produce quality and timely Advisory Services and Analytics (ASA); (iii) increasing its partnership with other International Financial Institutions (IFIs) and development partners; (iv) continuing to look for investment opportunities with companies in several sectors (e.g. agribusiness, manufacturing and financial institutions) and where enabling conditions are improved (e.g. mining), and (v) scaling its dialogue with multiple stakeholders in the country, including the private sector and civil society organizations, to assure complementarity and the mutual reinforcement of their agendas. The Performance and Learning Review (PLR), scheduled for FY21, will provide the opportunity to take stock of progress towards CPF objectives and determine how best to adjust, continue, and deepen the WBG's engagement in Ecuador.

Abstract

The WBG proposes a five-year strategy for CAR focused on a resilient and inclusive COVID-19 recovery amid an historic turn-around opportunity. The proposed program has been calibrated to fully address CAR's fragility drivers. With women's empowerment and digital development as cross-cutting priorities, the CPF is structured along two focus areas: Focus Area 1 - Human Capital and Connectivity to Boost Stabilization, Inclusion and Resilience, with direct support to the peace process; immediate social and health responses to COVID-19; sectoral engagements in health, education, energy, water and transport; and specific investments in the empowerment of women and girls. Focus Area 2 - Economic Management and Improved Governance to Build State Legitimacy and Foster Growth, with a strong program of reforms and targeted investments to strengthen public financial management (PFM) and debt management and transparency; support decentralization, increase domestic resource mobilization (DRM), and digitize the administration; and support the private sector.

Abstract

This report provides a retrospective assessment of the Bank Group's results and performance acrossits project and program portfolio. This is relevant for understanding the stock of achievements to date and the foundations on which the Bank Group is delivering on the Forward Look and its ambitious capital package. The report synthesizes trends in Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) ratings and identifies explanatory factors behind portfolio performance. Each of the three Bank Group institutions assesses results differently because of their differing reporting periods, operating models, and clients. The supplementary file contains four appendixes and the remaining, more specialized topic appendixes of the Results and Performance of the World Bank Group (RAP) report. This report is IEG's annual review of the development effectiveness of the World Bank Group (WBG). The report synthesizes trends in ratings, and identifies explanatory factors behind portfolio performance. This report provides a retrospective assessment of the World Bank Group's results and performance across its project and program portfolio.

Abstract

To achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, development institutions will need to leverage an unprecedented amount of private sector capital. This is more pressing in the current context as COVID-19 recoveries will require mobilizing both public and private sources in the short to medium term. Consequently, private capital mobilization (PCM) has become a World Bank Group priority, with efforts being deployed across all Bank Group institutions, under the context of the Maximizing Finance for Development (MFD) strategy. This evaluation offers IEG's first systematic assessment of the Bank Group's approaches to mobilize private capital to achieve development outcomes by engaging with investors and project sponsors. The evaluation finds Bank Group PCM approaches to have been relevant to both country and corporate clients, although partially meeting investor's priorities and expectations. The evaluation finds that PCM approaches are mostly effective in mobilizing private capital and points to the untapped PCM potential that still exists even in low-income and lower-middle income countries. The evaluation also highlights important gaps: IBRD PCM targets have not cascaded to Regional units and Global Practices (GPs), and IFC PCM approaches are not consistently aligned with investors' risk appetites. The evaluation identifies three near-term actions that can enhance the ability of the Bank Group to mobilize private capital and thus improve the probability of meeting corporate targets and improving outcomes: (i) To meet the 2030 PCM targets, prioritize client countries for PCM approaches, with corresponding targets cascading to the Regional units and GPs (IBRD); (ii) Expand PCM platforms, guarantees, and disaster risk management products commensurate with project pipeline development (World Bank Group); and (iii) Develop new PCM products and improve product alignment with the needs of new investor groups and partners (IFC and MIGA).
