ADB had gained experience in Pakistan’s municipal services sector and these were recorded in past PCRs and country assistance program evaluations. Except for the successful Punjab Community Water Supply and Sanitation Project, available PCRs rated ADB’s interventions less than successful, including the recent experience with the Megacity Development Project in the Sindh province (footnote 28). Lessons from these experiences could have been applied to the design of this MFF.

Lesson
Continuing TA support is required to ensure the sustainability of the program, especially to enhance domestic savings (output 3), and the increased mobilization of private resources focused on mobilizing private savings (output 4).

These reforms, however, are long-term in nature involving legislative changes and institutional strengthening.

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.
