Lesson
The success of a financial crisis response is highly contingent on the government's ability to quickly put together its own anti-crisis plan. ADB intervention can be in the form of financing for the anti-crisis plan. In the case of the KCSL, the government already had its employment-generation program (EGP) in place, and was able to use the KCSL funds immediately to finance the EGP. However, since the KCSL is a budget support instrument, it is difficult to track and link the financing with specific development results (e.g., which public works project it funded).

It may be noted that the review missions, as typified by the midterm and the final reviews, have regarded these nonstructural measures as having been achieved, without looking beyond the simple passing of regulations.
