Lesson
To ensure the success of expenditure management at subnational government level, these entities need to become more dependent on locally sourced revenues over time. Rapidly increasing central transfers can make them more dependent to the national government and weaken their motivation to raise local revenues.

Project Name: Fiscal and Public Expenditure Management Program

Lesson
Decentralization and devolution to subnational governments need to be undertaken with caution, especially where capacity is known to be limited. A sequential program is useful, where functions and resources are better devolved first to local governments that are fully staffed and capacitated, and later to others, following a program that improves institutional capacity to accept the new responsibilities.

Lesson
The countercyclical support facility (CSF), with a precautionary financing option, has demonstrated its role as part of ADB’s lending products, but its use is likely to be most effective when provided in the context of a development partner coordination mechanism, which includes the participation of the International Monetary Fund.

Lesson
Tightening the criteria for granting extensions could address multiple extensions in future operations that, in the case of this PFF, resulted in a far longer implementation period than originally envisaged and gave it the character of a standby credit facility rather than a crisis response.

Lesson
The interim restructuring of the program, at the request of the government, lowered the total program cost to the government. It also put greater emphasis on the program’s design features than on embedding the program deeper within public institutions. This may have been fiscally expedient but will have long-term costs that are hard to measure now. The government may have employed the program’s national consultants after it decided to fund SP2 and SP3, but ADB is unlikely to receive information on the results.

Lesson
Multiple developmental financial institutions can work effectively together to create new institutions. All of the agencies involved provided equity and/or debt financing in sufficient amounts to meet the capitalization target and on a coordinated basis to allow IIF to formulate and staff its operations with its own independent management. This project appears to be an important benchmark for cooperative ventures both within ADB (sovereign and nonsovereign operations) and among institutions.

There was no technical assistance attached to the program. Prior to the loan, however, technical assistance was provided for sector programs that provided technical inputs for the program design on decentralization and state audit systems, and capacity building in infrastructure development for the National Committee for the Acceleration of Infrastructure Development (KKPPI).
