7 Looking Back – Looking Forward For the last 5 years (07-11), the Secretariat, working with the Parties, has ensured that contributions remained stable – even in the face of over 15% global inflation over that time For the last 5 years (07-11), the Secretariat, working with the Parties, has ensured that contributions remained stable – even in the face of over 15% global inflation over that time It has done this through careful planning, slim budgeting, and careful use of the historic trust fund surplus It has done this through careful planning, slim budgeting, and careful use of the historic trust fund surplus

8 Trust Fund Surplus/Draw downs Between 1995 and 2002, the Parties built up a sizable surplus in the MP and VC trust funds Between 1995 and 2002, the Parties built up a sizable surplus in the MP and VC trust funds Beginning in 2002, the Parties systematically reduced the MP and VC surplus, by drawing it down and using it to fund a substantial portion of the Secretariat budget Beginning in 2002, the Parties systematically reduced the MP and VC surplus, by drawing it down and using it to fund a substantial portion of the Secretariat budget However, it was understood that when the draw downs cease, maintenance of the same MP and VC budget levels and services will require contributions to rise by the level of the draw downs However, it was understood that when the draw downs cease, maintenance of the same MP and VC budget levels and services will require contributions to rise by the level of the draw downs

9 In search of the “soft landing” Effort to decrease surplus initially successful: MP and VC surplus were drawn down by almost $8m. The drawdown and use of related funds reduced the parties contributions and have enabled us to maintain stable contributions levels. Effort to decrease surplus initially successful: MP and VC surplus were drawn down by almost $8m. The drawdown and use of related funds reduced the parties contributions and have enabled us to maintain stable contributions levels. Our joint goal was to begin decreasing the drawdown and increasing the contributions slowly over time, so that contributions did not increase suddenly in any one year - goal was to have a “soft landing” Our joint goal was to begin decreasing the drawdown and increasing the contributions slowly over time, so that contributions did not increase suddenly in any one year - goal was to have a “soft landing”

10 New Realities While the Committee had discussed reducing the drawdown and increasing contributions as soon as 2010, the global economic situation suggests the continued desirability of keeping contributions level While the Committee had discussed reducing the drawdown and increasing contributions as soon as 2010, the global economic situation suggests the continued desirability of keeping contributions level On the positive side, increased voluntary support and interest income would support this – if Parties do not request too much additional work (studies, seminars, etc) On the positive side, increased voluntary support and interest income would support this – if Parties do not request too much additional work (studies, seminars, etc)

11 Looking Forward Given the global situation and the status of the trust funds, – we believe we can maintain level contributions for both trust funds for at least the next 3 years, and start a gradual process toward a soft landing after that time.

This will be possible so long as any new requests are modest This will be possible so long as any new requests are modest
