Introduction The International Development Association (IDA) is the part

of the World Bank that helps the world’s poorest countries.

Established in 1960,

IDA aims to reduce poverty by providing interest-free credits

and grants for programs that boost economic growth, reduce

inequalities and improve people’s living conditions.

IDA complements the World Bank’s other lending arm.

Page 3: ida-ppt

International Bank for Reconstruction and Development

(IBRD)–which serves middle-income countries with capital

investment and advisory services.

IDA is one of the largest sources of assistance for the world’s

79 poorest countries,39 of which are in Africa.

It is the single largest source of donor funds for basic social

services in the poorest countries.

IDA lends money (known as credits) on concessional terms.

Funding

In addition to the funds received by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development for the IDA's efforts of global aid, its more developed and economically sound member countries provide a substantial amount monetary resources. Approximately half of the IDA's resources come from the 45 donating countries. In its early years of establishment, the IDA received most of its replenishments from the United Kingdom and United States, but because they were not always reliable sources of funding during that time, other developed nations began to step in to fill the economic gaps not met by these two countries.

Page 7: ida-ppt

Contd.. Today, every three years, member nations that

provide monetary funds to the IDA gather together to replenish the IDA's resources. These funds primarily come from well developed countries including the United States, Japan, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom; with 58% from the US, 22% from France, and 8% from the UK. Although the IDA's funds are now regularly replenished, this does not happen without some financial and political challenges for the donating countries

History IBRD established in 1944 to help Europe recover -devastation of

World War II

Success of that enterprise led the Bank, within a few years, to turn its

attention to developing countries

By the 1950s- poorest developing countries needed softer terms than

those offered by the Bank-afford to borrow the capital they needed to

grow.

United States -initiative, a group of the Bank’s member countries

decided to set up an agency that could lend to the poorest countries

on the most favorable terms possible.

Page 9: ida-ppt

They called the agency the "International Development

Association

Wanted IDA to be run with the discipline of a bank. (world bank)

IDA's Articles of Agreement became effective in 1960.

The first IDA loans, known as credits, were approved in 1961 to

Chile, Honduras, India and Sudan.

IDA currently has 170 member countries

Members subscribe to IDA’s -submitting necessary documentation

– make required payments under the replenishment arrangements.

35 countries have graduated from IDA throughout its history and

some reentered

IDA BORROWERS• Eligibility for IDA support depends first and foremost on a

country’s relative poverty, defined as GNI per capita below an established threshold and updated annually. (in fiscal year 2011: US$1,165)

• IDA also supports some countries, including several small island economies, which are above the operational cutoff but lack the creditworthiness needed to borrow from IBRD.

• Seventy-nine countries are currently eligible to receive IDA resources.

IDA lending's IDA credits- maturities of 20, 35 or 40 years 10-year grace

period

IDA funds are allocated to the borrowing countries relation -

income levels and record of success in managing their

economies and ongoing IDA projects.

IDA credits have no interest charge but small service charge,

currently 0.75 percent on funds paid out.

IDA also provides grants, which are allocated to the countries

that are at risk of debt distress.

Page 15: ida-ppt

In fiscal year 2010 IDA commitments totaled US$14.5 billion-

18% was provided on grant terms.

Since 1960, IDA has provided US$222 billion to 108 countries.

Annual commitments increased steadily and averaged about

US$13 billion over last 3 years.

IDA-financed operations address primary needs

These projects pave the way toward economic growth, job

creation, higher incomes and better living conditions.

Page 16: ida-ppt

IDA emphasizes broad-based growth, including:

Sound economic policies, rural development, private business and sustainable environmental practices

Investment in people, in education and health, especially in the struggle against HIV/AIDS, malaria and TB

Expansion of borrower capacity to provide basic services

Recovery from civil trouble, armed conflict and natural disaster

Promotion of trade and regional integration

Page 17: ida-ppt

IDA advises governments -broaden the base of economic growth and

protect the poor from economic shocks.

IDA coordinates donor assistance to provide relief for poor countries

that cannot manage their debt-service burden.

IDA developed a system for allocating grants based on countries’ risk

of debt distress, designed to help countries ensure debt sustainability.

IBRD raises its funds on the world's financial markets, IDA is funded

largely by contributions from the governments of richer member

countries.

Additional funds from IBRD's income and from borrowers'

repayments of earlier IDA credits.

Introduction

Official Development Assistance (ODA) flows are a primary source of financing for low- income countries (LICs), and IDA continues to be their main source of multilateral ODA

IDA’s role in the international aid architecture - financing and knowledge service and support aid delivery platform

In light of the growing complexity of the global aid architecture, IDA’s role in supporting LICs has become even more important.

Page 20: ida-ppt

The country-based development model in a changing aid landscape

There is broad agreement that the country-based development model

However, some recent trends in ODA flows are potentially at odds

Page 21: ida-ppt

IDA’s role at the country level

Client surveys indicate that IDA’s core strengths reside in its financial resources - but also, in its global reach combined with local presence, its ability to operate on a multi-sectoral basis

These core strengths enable IDA not only to provide direct support to client countries

IDA brings greater strategic coherence in development assistance programs and plays a central role in enhancing alignment and harmonization as well as in achieving sustained results at the country level.

Page 22: ida-ppt

Challenges going forward and conclusion Focuses on the main challenges going forward and how IDA is gearing

up to address them.

IDA will have to adapt and intensify its efforts in four main areas:(i) strengthening complementarity with vertical approaches to aid delivery;

(ii) ensuring appropriate sectoral funding;(iii) addressing critical global challenges with an increased priority given to climate change;(iv) and enhancing alignment and harmonization.

IDA is also in the process of reforming and modernizing its operational policies, designed to improve its operational effectiveness and thus its ability to meet the challenges outlined above.
