18. THE WORLD BANK - MULTILATERAL INVESTMENT GUARANTEE AGENCY - INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION 18 But Challenges Remain: Future Areas of Focus  Addressing attribution is not easy  Standardization: More work ahead, and still presents limitations  Weighted vs. unweighted results –Unweighted: every company counts as one (with $100.000 or $100 million IFC investment) –Weighted recognizes that larger IFC investments (and projects) tend to have greater costs and benefits.  Risk adjusted success rates? –Success probability is lower in riskier countries and types of projects (e.g. venture capital, greenfield, small businesses, equity etc.)  Time to maturity: Results take time to materialize  Measuring impacts, particularly on poverty

19. THE WORLD BANK - MULTILATERAL INVESTMENT GUARANTEE AGENCY - INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION 19 A Solution: Deepen Partnerships  Harmonization on measuring results, indicators, reporting, policies –Good practice standards – M&E for advisory services –Pricing policy  Partnerships on M&E –Benchmarking –More joint evaluations –Secondment of M&E staff by donors –In-depth evaluations:  Attribution: Control group experiments  Poverty impacts
