| Operational Utility of LICUS Identification, Classification and Aid Allocation System |
|
|
-
The Bank continues to rely almost exclusively on the CPIA to identify
LICUS, although the CPIA does not sufficiently capture some
key aspects of state fragility and conflict.
- The recently introduced LICUS business models are likely to
permit a more tailored response to different groups of LICUS.
- But the operational guidance contained in the business models
needs to be sharpened and the extent of operational usefulness of
the business models tested through implementation.
- The Bank needs to review its aid-allocation criteria in light of its objectives
for LICUS and ensure that LICUS are not under- or over-aided.
