Abstract
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.
