Regional: Disbursement Capacity Building for Developing Member Countries
This TA will finance our capacity building initiatives for disbursement. It will also support the rollout of our Client Portal for Disbursements (CPD) to the Borrower for the remaining 27 implementing agencies who have not yet used the system and the new CPD module, Beneficiary Registration Facility (BRF). CPD continues to be a vital platform for effective and efficient disbursement operations for the DMCs. The platform provides for faster and quality submission of the withdrawal application from the DMCs.
The expected output is completed disbursement seminars, workshops and trainings and rollouts of CPD inclusive of the BRF [and TA Client Portal (TACP), if needed]. The seminars, workshops and briefings will cover the following topics:
(i) Loan products and features;
(ii) Disbursement policies, procedures and practices;
(iii) Problems, constraints and solutions on loan disbursement;
(iv) Country and project specific case-studies and group discussion;
