Economic Analysis Retrospective 2005: Strengthening Quality-at-Entry of ADB Operations

Reports

Publication Date: August 2006
Non-priced Publication



This retrospective is the fourth in an annual series prepared by the Economics and Research Department to assess the quality of economic analysis as it is applied throughout Asian Development Bank (ADB) operations. This report advances the analysis by
  • extending its coverage to include both country strategy and program papers (CSPs) and reports and recommendations of the President (RRPs)
  • developing an assessment framework based on the concept of binding constraints focusing on problem diagnosis--market failures or government failures; the rationale for public sector involvement; and the value-added of ADB interventions
  • introducing a numerical rating system. This retrospective covers the six CSPs approved in 2004-2005 and 49 RRPs approved in 2005 by ADB.
