Description

To help developing countries reduce poverty and stimulate economic growth, the Millennium Challenge Corp. (MCC) has approved 26 bilateral compact agreements totaling about $9.3 billion. In the seven compacts that ended in 2010 and 2011 -- Honduras, Cape Verde, Nicaragua, Vanuatu, Georgia, Armenia, and Benin -- transportation infrastructure projects generally received about 50% of the compactäó»s total funding. To measure the results of its compacts, MCC sets targets for various performance indicators -- such as number of kilometers paved or volume of merchandise passing through a port -- and estimates the number of beneficiaries. This report examines the extent to which MCC has, for transportation infrastructure projects, (1) achieved expected performance targets and (2) consistently estimated numbers of beneficiaries. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
