Slow funds liquidation results in inadequate funds availability, slowing implementation. Future projects should ensure that seamless, efficient, and simple funds disbursement processes are established that satisfy appropriate procurement and financial audit requirements. Future projects should consider (i) direct payment of contractors by ADB; (ii) making imprest account levels appropriate to the funds flows anticipated; and (iii) simplified disbursement procedures and documentation requirements, preferably through the executing agency.
