The Seoul Post-2015 Conference: Implementation and Implications Seoul, Korea October 7, 2013 • The original MDGs were articulated independently of a financing framework (Monterrey 2002). • In a context of fiscal consolidation and an evolving landscape of development financing, discussion of post-2015 goals would need to be integrated with consideration of a supporting financing framework for implementation. • The purpose of this presentation is to present some elements of a financing framework for the post 2015 development goals. 2 Good policies and credible institutions to: Increase impact of available resources Leverage additional resources Good policies and credible institutions enhance the impact of available resources and leverage additional resources from both domestic and foreign sources. 3 At the country level: • • • • Design targeted, evidence-based policies and support sound institutions Generate more revenues Ensure efficient public spending Promote financial deepening and inclusion Globally: Maximize the impact of ODA Support new development partners Leverage the private sector Tap into new sources of finance Deliver global public goods 4 35 Tax Revenue (in % of GDP) by Income Groups, 1994-2009 28.4 30 29.3 28.4 25 21.2 20 18.8 19.3 19 17.1 13.6 15 11.3 10.5 10 10 5 0 1994 1998 High Income 2003 Middle Income 2009 Low Income Source: World Development Indicators 5 Subsidies are an inefficient means of assisting the poor: only 8% of the $409 billion spent on fossil-fuel subsidies in 2010 went to the poorest 20% of the population. Source: World Energy Outlook, IEA, Fossil fuel consumption subsidies measure what developing countries spend to provide below-cost fuel to their citizens. High-income countries offer support to energy production in the form of tax credits or loan guarantees, which are not included in these calculations since they are directed towards production rather than consumption of the fuel. 6 How do financial institutions contribute to economic growth? Improve the allocation of resources Lower the cost of financial and nonfinancial transactions Facilitate efforts to reduce and trade risks 7 Source: World Bank CFP Working Paper No. 8, Finance for Development Source: Fragile States 2013, OECD NB: Based on OECD definition of fragile states 8 Estimated aid from BRICS, 2003-2009 (USD billion) 4.50 4.00 3.50 3.00 2.50 2.00 1.50 1.00 0.50 0.00 2003 2004 China Source: World Bank CFP Working Paper No. 8, Finance for Development 2005 India 2006 Russia 2007 Brazil 2008 2009 South Africa For the purpose of comparison, in 2009, net ODA from DAC members was 119.8 bn USD. 9 ODA from Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and Turkey, 2003-2009 (Gross disbursements, US$ billion) ODA from non-DAC donors excluding BRICS, 2003-2009 (Net disbursements, US$ billion) DAC Annual Reports and IDS Statistics; Zimmerman and Smith, 2008 10 • Global funds: trust funds that pool resources for specific issues of global importance – – – – Global Partnership for Education GAVI Alliance (formerly the Global Alliance for Vaccine and Immunization) Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM) Global Environment Fund (GEF) • Scattered data – available estimates for private aid to developing countries in 2009 range from USD 22 billion to USD 53 billion • Low estimate is equivalent to 16 percent of ODA from all donors in the same year, and up from 2005 (12 percent of ODA) • Private philanthropy to fragile states increasing in recent years • South-South philanthropy also on the rise, especially in the Arab world • Philanthropic giving highly sensitive to factors such as media coverage, timing, geopolitical considerations 11 Kenya Maharashtra & Tamil Nadu, India P R I V AT E S E C T O R P O W E R G E N E R AT I O N P R O J E C T C L I F F C O M M U N I T Y S A N I T AT I O N P ROJECT Total initial investment: $ 7.2 million - Homeless International - S PA R C ( N G O i n I n d i a ) - Community-based Organizations Total initial investment: $ 623 million - Kenya Power and Lighting Company - IFC - MIGA - Commercial Banks Emerging Partnerships Sao Paulo, Brazil Lake Kivu, Rwanda M ETRO LINE 4 K I V U W AT T Total initial investment: $ 450 million - Companhia do Metropolitano de Sao Paolo - 5 Equity Sponsors - IDB - Commercial Banks Source: Emerging Partnerships, IFC, 2013 and World Bank, Africa Region.

Mobilizing a broad range of financing and using the right combination of instruments to meet a given goal, in a given country context, would be important tasks ahead to implement the next development framework post-2015. 16 Marilou Uy Senior Adviser The World Bank [email protected] 17
