Types of monitoring and data: investment data
Investment data collection
(e.g. name of company, type of business, local jobs created, tax revenues generated)
![Page 5: Provincial Investment Monitoring in Lao PDR](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685d550346895dde9886/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Compliance monitoring
(does the company follow the concession, IEE/ESIA or other contractual agreements)
Agreements contain measures to protect communities and the environment
Agreements often build on lessons learnt and intend to avoid bad impact that has happened before.
Types of monitoring and data: compliance
![Page 6: Provincial Investment Monitoring in Lao PDR](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685d550346895dde9886/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Impact/risk monitoring
(are impacts/risks on the environment and the local people notable)
Poor people strongly rely on the environment since natural resources remain an important source of livelihood.
Health of the environment links to the well being of local people.
Types of monitoring and data: impacts and risks
![Page 7: Provincial Investment Monitoring in Lao PDR](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685d550346895dde9886/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Possible consequences for economic development:
A continuing degradation of natural resources can also impede economic development of the province.
main investment sectors depend on the natural resource base.
Dependence on natural resource base

Constraints of the monitoring
• Does not cover impact monitoring where specific equipment for analysis is needed
• Can only assess basic social and environmental impacts, without specific reference to regulatory standards.
• Covers mostly indicators that can be assessed on a one-time spot check (some questions need to be asked to the community to assess past and current situations)

Support for investment decisions
What is the contribution of monitoring data to sustainable management of investments?
1. Identification of sustainable investments monitoring can show that some sectors or
management standards may have less social and environmental impacts than others
Help to focus on good quality investments and to promote them specifically – what types of management and social responsibility standards create quality?
![Page 16: Provincial Investment Monitoring in Lao PDR](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685d550346895dde9886/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
2. Identification of shortcomings in investments to inform better management
Example: the monitoring can show that investors are not providing adequate protective equipment for staff or that they are not complying with contract/concession agreements.
This information can lead to changes in investment management (new conditions for investors)
Support for investment decisions
![Page 17: Provincial Investment Monitoring in Lao PDR](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685d550346895dde9886/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
3. Assessment if investments are effectively contributing to strategies and plans
Contribute important data towards Monitoring & Evaluation requirements at the Central level to assess progress and achievements of the NSEDP
Over time this data contributes to evaluation of provincial investment strategies and development goals
Support for investment decisions
