Assessing Aid for a Sector Development Plan: Economic Analysis of a Sector Loan
Dole, David | November 2005
Abstract
A sector loan is the ideal way for the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to support a government’s sector development plan. A sector development plan can include organizational changes, investments, and policy reforms, all aimed at making broad improvements in a sector. The economic analysis of a sector loan should likewise take a broad perspective, covering the sector as a whole and how to improve it. The analysis should also cover ADB’s role in helping the government, look beyond the sector development plan, and try to improve ADB’s development effectiveness. This paper describes some areas of economic analysis relevant to the sector development plan and ADB’s effectiveness. The paper includes an example of applying the areas of analysis to a sector loan for wastewater management in Henan, People’s Republic of China.
