- 2.2. The unstable global context puts pressure on multilateral development finance
- 2.2.1. A more shock-prone world tests the relevance and capacity of multilateral models
- 2.2.2. Geopolitical polarisation could generate tensions in the multilateral development system between competing values and priorities
- 2.2.3. Multilateral approaches and institutions are increasingly contested
- 2.3. Recent crises are a double-edged sword for multilateral reform

- 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
- Donor governments seek recourse to vertical funds in the face of emerging global challenges
- Most vertical funds ultimately rely on the implementing capacity of existing multilateral organisations.
- 3.3. Outlook and policy recommendations
- 3.3.1. The pandemic has highlighted and amplified the strengths and weaknesses of the multilateral 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
- 4.1.3. Multilateral finance was not sufficient to cover developing countries' COVID-related spending
- 4.1.4. Multilateral development finance still favours middle-income countries
- 4.1.5. Multilateral development organisations are increasingly incorporating the support to global and regional public goods in their agendas
- 4.2. The contribution of the multilateral development system is critical to meet the challenges of the recovery in developing countries
- 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
- 4.3.2. Multilateral development finance is called on to play a pivotal role in developing countries' recovery from successive crises
