Technical Assistance in Financial Programming, Phase III


The aim of the Financial Programming intervention is for beneficiaries to develop their own financial programming models and systems, to take command of the technical analysis, to negotiate with the IMF in more pro-active terms, and to establish a foundation for deeper commitment to prudent macroeconomic policy management. With a modular approach, the project aims to complement IMF training in several SECO priority countries.

The project builds on experiences gained over the past years in assisting Paraguay, Nicaragua, Azerbaijan, Kirgyzstan and Vietnam in macroeconomic forecasting. Those countries had asked SECO for technical assistance to improve their macroeconomic planning capacities. While the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the key provider in this area, donors such as SECO can complement the IMF work by delivering focused and tailor-made assistance to beneficiary countries.

Зорилтууд

The IMF institute provides centralized courses of Financial Programming in several regional training facilities. Emerging market authorities have sent large numbers of officials to IMF training facilities. Main goal of the IMF training is educational. The courses are kept fairly generic and do not aim at specific national needs. SECO assistance, by contrast, has been very focused, hands-on and country-specific. It involves workshops to build (from scratch) individual country forecasting economic models based on Financial Programming with ministry and central bank officials. Demand for such models is large, but resource constraints and the specificity of the chosen assistance reduce the geographic coverage of the project (at most six countries can benefit from this assistance in any given year).
