This years Independent Evaluation of IFC's Development Results (IEDR) reviews the findings related to 174 IFC-Supported investment operations that reached early operating maturity during 2005-07. It also includes preliminary results for IFC's advisory services, based on a pilot review of 293 operations completed during 2004-06. As a second theme, the report provides a first look by IEG at IFC's additionally (or unique contribution) in its investment and advisory services operations.
As part of the World Bank Group, IFC's overriding objective is to help reduce poverty and support sustainable development in developing countries. IFC pursues this mission by supporting the private sector to create jobs and simulate markets. This report, which assesses the impact of IFC toward that mission, appears at a time of unprecedented levels of private investment in the emerging markets. The report takes a look back at the development results that the IFC-supported projects have achieved in the last 10 years, the main lessons that have emerged at the project level and the strategic implications for IFC going forward, in the context of rapid organizational growth. Going forward, the report highlights major challenges IFC faces to achieving overall development effectiveness.
This year's annual Independent Evaluation of International Finance Corporation's (IFC's) Development Results (IEDR) reviews the development results related to 174 IFC-supported investment operations that reached early operating maturity during 2005-07. It also reviews, for the first time, preliminary results for IFC advisory services based on a pilot that evaluated 293 operations completed during 2004-06. As a second theme, the report provides a first ex-post look at the "additionality" (or unique role and contribution) of IFC's operations.
"This report was prepared by a team led by Daniel Crabtree"--P. xi.
The Biennial Report on Operations Evaluation (BROE) in International Finance Corporation (IFC) assesses the adequacy, coverage, and quality of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) in IFC and makes recommendations for improvements going forward. It covers IFC management's M&E of its performance and also IEG's independent evaluation activities. In the last three years, IFC has made advances in monitoring and evaluating its performance: (i) new M&E tools have been introduced to cover all active investments and advisory services operations; and (ii) the use of M&E results in informing IFC strategy and in linking incentives to project results has grown. The report recommends that IFC management and Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) develop more robust and consistent metrics for monitoring and assessing IFC's additionality and development impact at the sector and country levels, as IFC transitions to a more programmatic approach in its interventions.
This review provides an independent assessment of the World Bank Group's performance in achieving key development objectives, with a special focus on support for environmentally sustainable development consistent with economic growth and poverty reduction.
The independent evaluation of International Finance Corporation's (IFC's) development results 2009 assesses the development outcomes and additionality (unique role and contribution) of IFC interventions. It analyzes factors driving results, and reviews performance patterns on a thematic topic. This year's thematic is IFC's Advisory Services (AS), knowledge services that IFC provides to either private companies or governments in support of private sector development. To enhance development impact, the report recommends that IFC: i) effectively manage the tension between protecting the portfolio and responding to opportunities during crisis; ii) set out an overall strategy for IFC advisory services, addressing the need for a clear vision and business framework and more closely linked with IFC's global corporate strategy; iii) pursue more programmatic AS interventions; iv) improve execution of the AS pricing policy; and v) strengthen AS performance measurement and internal knowledge management.
