- Title
Not such a good bargain for (the evidence on) budget support.
- Abstract
Despite the positive effects of budget support found in all recent studies and evaluations, most donors no longer provide budget support. The authors conclude that decisions of donor governments to stop budget support meant that "donors can no longer make a credible commitment" (i.e. to disburse budget support). In addition, and as noted above, the good predictability record of budget support disappeared when donors began to suspend it due to concerns related to the Underlying Principles of budget support, i.e. governance issues. In their view, the main reason that recipient governments prefer budget support over project aid is that budget support is more predictable than project aid.
