Partnership Opportunity 7: Fiscal Analysis Partnership
Summary:
Fiscal policy is the most powerful tool democratic governments have to reduce poverty through growth. The analytic tools that MCC deploys to advance
its mission focus on relaxing the binding constraints on economic growth, promoting efficiency through rigorous cost-benefit analysis, and achieving a required minimum rate of return. MCC seeks to partner with institutions that have specialized capacity and
expertise with developing and deploying tools for fiscal analysis in low and lower-middle income countries. Through partnership, MCC aims to analyze the effects of public expenditure and revenue mobilization across income levels so that consideration of inclusiveness
and poverty reduction potential can be better integrated into early project development; investigate opportunities to further disaggregate analysis of effects by region, gender, and other population characteristics to better inform decision making in project
design and policy choice; incorporate these analyses during the project development process to ensure economic growth driven by investments is pro-poor, inclusive, and promotes gender equity; and expand learning opportunities across the development community
regarding incidence analysis and the impact of policy design on development outcomes.
