Building a Results-Based M&E System in Sri Lanka
Acknowledging the need to better capture and report its results on the ground as part of a new development effectiveness reporting, ADB has initiated the preparation of development effectiveness country briefs for each of its developing member countries. The purpose of the country brief is to provide an overview of ADB's operational effectiveness in the country in terms of key contributions to development outcomes and aid effectiveness.

Improving Portfolio Performance in Nepal
Nepal’s portfolio performance had been well below ADB-wide averages for many years. Following the adoption of the first results-based Country Strategy and Program for Nepal in 2004, improving performance of the Nepal portfolio—and accelerating the delivery of results on the ground—in a conflict environment became the priority of the ADB–Government team. By 2006, the performance of ADB’s Nepal portfolio had improved considerably. See key actions taken by the ADB-Government team. Featured in the December issue of Results Matter Newsletter
