PRGF/PSI Support for Development Spending (cont’d) Programs support effective expenditure management: Promote medium-term budgeting Smooth spending despite aid volatility Increase budgetary transparency Monitor social spending Use wage bill-ceilings only as a temporary measure in exceptional cases

PRGF and PSI PRGF Provides concessional balance of payments support To build track record for HIPC/MDRI debt relief PSI For mature stabilizers Signal to donors Possible financial support in case of shocks (ESF)
