The PEFA Program Aim: contribute to development effectiveness via the ‘Strengthened Approach’ to support PFM Reform (country-led; harmonized PFM analytical work; common data pool)
The Performance Measurement Framework • the PEFA Framework (Blue Book)
‘flagship’ of the PEFA Program launched by 7 Partners in June 2005
• Applicable to countries with different traditions, & at different stages of development

Strengthened Approach to PFM Reform
• A country-led PFM reform program, including a strategy & action plan reflecting country priorities; implemented through government structures
• A donor coordinated program of support, covering analytical, technical & financial support
• A common information pool, based on a framework for measuring performance & monitoring results over time i.e. the PFM Performance Measurement Framework

Purpose of the PEFA Framework
The Framework provides: • a high level overview of all aspects of a country’s PFM
systems performance (revenue, expenditure, financial assets/liabilities, procurement, controls): are tools in place to deliver budgetary outcomes (aggregate fiscal discipline; strategic resource allocation; efficient service delivery)?
It does not provide an assessment of: • underlying causes for good or poor performance i.e.
capacity factors
• government fiscal & financial policies 6

What can countries use PEFA for?
• Inform PFM reform formulation, priorities
• Monitor results of reform efforts
• Harmonize information needs for external agencies around a common assessment tool
• Compare to and learn from peers

Adoption of the PEFA Framework
Very good progress – globally • 360+ assessments, covering 140+ countries • Since 2010, mostly Repeat & Sub-National assessments
High country coverage in many regions • Africa and Caribbean 90% of countries • Latin America, Eastern Europe, Asia Pacific 50-80%
Used in many Middle Income countries • Upper MICS: e.g. Brazil, Turkey, Belarus, South Africa • Lower MICS: e.g. India, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Morocco

Stakeholder Involvement Government leadership/self-assessment • Active government participation in assessment is key
to the use in reform policy dialogue
• Increasing frequency of self-assessment with expert assistance & external validation – but still a minority, as full self-assessment is burden on government
Development Agencies • About 25 development banks & donor agencies
involved (leading, financing or in reference group)
• World Bank & EU have led 85% of all assessments
• Increased frequency of partner inclusiveness
