  • 3 Funding to the multilateral development system.
  • 3.1. The multilateral development system continues to grow in importance as an ODA channel
  • 3.1.1. DAC members' multilateral contributions reached an all-time high in 2020
  • 3.1.2. DAC members continue to supply most of the multilateral development system's funding
  • 3.1.3. Recent increases in multilateral contributions are not evenly distributed across the system
  • 3.1.4. Official providers' continued tendency to earmark their contributions constrains the flexibility of multilateral development organisations and their ability to reform
  • 3.2. Multilateral organisations are under pressure to diversify and optimise their funding structures
  • 3.2.1. The UN Development System seeks to overcome funding vulnerabilities through system-wide reforms and greater engagement of private actors
  • Funding vulnerabilities continue to challenge the UN Development System
  • The UN Funding Compact shows mixed progress in the effort to secure stable and sustainable funding
  • Partnerships with the private sector offer both opportunities and risks
  • 3.2.2. Multilateral development banks are increasingly capitalising on their unique ability to access global financial markets
  • The MDBs' unique financial model provides flexibility in times of crisis
  • MDBs' financing headroom is reduced by limited potential for new capital increases
  • MDBs are under increasing pressure to do more with less and optimise their balance sheets
  • Special drawing rights rechannelling offers another option to boost MDBs' lending capacity
  • 3.2.3. Increased funding to vertical funds helps scale up multilateral development finance but risks exacerbating pressures on the system

  • 3.3.2. DAC members have a shared responsibility to safeguard the effectiveness of the multilateral development system
  • Develop a holistic vision for the multilateral system to ensure its fitness to meet new global development challenges
  • Provide sustainable and predictable funding for a more resilient system
  • Improve co-ordination across the system to increase the coherence and complementarity of multilateral efforts

  • 4 Financing from the multilateral system
  • 4.1. The multilateral development system played a crucial role in the COVID-19 crisis response
  • 4.1.1. Multilateral outflows reached record volumes in 2020, with similar figures expected for 2021
  • 4.1.2. The international financial institutions drove the rapid surge in multilateral financing during the first year of the crisis

  • 4.2.1. The sustainability and inclusiveness pillars of the recovery provide a compass for multilateral action in the next decade
  • 4.2.2. Recent crises have increased the multilateral focus on reducing poverty and inequality
  • The multilateral response to the COVID-19 pandemic helped mitigate the social impact of the crisis
  • A strong recovery will require increased multilateral focus on poverty and inequality.
  • 4.2.3. A sustainable recovery requires greater multilateral support to address the growing climate and biodiversity emergencies
  • The multilateral development system is a major and growing actor in the area of green finance
  • Persistent bottlenecks in climate and biodiversity-related finance suggest the need for greater mainstreaming
  • 4.3. Outlook and policy recommendations
  • 4.3.1. The shift from emergency response to recovery requires better co-ordination
