Flexibility in design. Fiscal decentralization is the process of decentralizing revenue raising and expenditure of moneys to a lower level of government while maintaining financial responsibility. The process is complex and involves major changes to the legal and regulatory framework, institutional arrangements, and human capacity. Hence, sufficient time must be allocated to program implementation. Design flexibility is also a key consideration.

The adoption of the National Action Plan for Fiscal Decentralization (NAPFD) by the Ministry of Finance (MOF) laid the foundation for developing the Directorate General (DG) Fiscal Balance's blueprint for institutional transformation. The policy design of the blueprint has also benefited from inputs by ADB and other donors. Through the development of this blueprint, the government now has a set of long-term objectives to guide and shape medium-term policy design and implementation. ADB is currently a member of an informal development partners working group on decentralization.
