Budgetary Impacts Issues Over 80% of the IADB Budget are fixed-cost activities and must-have funds; with the majority of the budget tied to administrative expenses, not much is available for technical advisory activities and specialized education Since 2000 the IADB has continually had to reduce the staff – institutional memory Lack of adequate funding has prevented current employees to receive updated payrolls (current wages date back to 2009); employees have lost 17% in purchasing power since 2009 Deferred maintenance to many critical requirements; problems become more expensive overtime; No ability to procure IT equipment and furniture, since they break due to lack of funds for programmed life-cycle replacement; heavily reliant on donations- often previously used; Over-reliance on US Funds to operate an INTERNATIONAL College providing an ACCREDITED Master of Science Degree
CY 2017 BUDGET REQUEST $2.5M
Conclusions Without sufficient funding: IADB cannot fully meet its commitment to the OAS and to the Member States to provide technical and advisory services IADB, through IADC, will not be able to provide an accredited Master of Science to the OAS member nations (now funded by US contributions and limited OAS regular funds) It will not be able to retain remaining civilian employees, endangering institutional memory
