‘For most countries, DRM is the largest resource available to fund their national development plans. A country’s ability to mobilise domestic resources and spend them effectively – at the national, sub-national and municipal levels – lies at the crux of financing for development.’

INFRASTRUCTURE HAS A MULTIPLIER EFFECT – ONE DOLLAR SPENT ON INFRASTRUCTURE YIELDS MANY IN ECONOMIC RETURN
A MORE PRODUCTIVE ECONOMY MEANS GREATER SCOPE FOR INCREASED TAX REVENUES

AN ANNUAL INVESTMENT EQUIVALENT TO 2.5% OF GLOBAL GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) WILL BE REQUIRED OVER THE NEXT 25 YEARS TO ADDRESS THE CURRENT INFRASTRUCTURE SHORTFALL1.

CHALLENGES
1. CAPACITY
2. CAPTURE
3. CORRUPTION
GOVERNMENTS MAY NOT HAVE THE INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY TO ENSURE PUBLIC EXPENDITURE EFFICIENCY AND FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY.
THERE IS A NEED TO ENSURE WIDER COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT TO AVOID NARROW INTERESTS CAPTURING LIMITED STATE RESOURCES.
CURBING ILLICIT FINANCIAL FLOWS IS ESSENTIAL.
The End.
