ANALYSIS

The IFC scores 30.1%, placing it in the poor category. The IFC performs poorly on the provision of organisation-level financial data and activity documents. It publishes more information in the organisation planning sub-group of indicators than in any other sub-group. The IFC is one of only four organisations in the poor category (out of a total of 16) to score for publishing performance information. Of the 22 indicators that take format into account, less than two thirds are published in machine-readable formats. The IFC does not consistently publish information on tied aid status, results, flow type, sub-national location, dates or actual expenditures.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• The IFC should join IATI and begin publishing to the IATI standard in 2014 so it can aim towards compliance with the standard by the end of 2015.
• It should produce an ambitious implementation schedule by early 2014 that aims to fully implement the IATI standard by the end of 2015.
• The IFC should work with IATI to develop specific guidance and an extension to the IATI standard for IFIs and DFIs.
