In 2005, the World Bank Group (WBG)
formally introduced the results framework in the country
assistant strategy (CASs) as a key tool for improving the
quality of the WBG's strategy in borrowing member
countries, maximizing the development effectiveness of WBG
assistance, and demonstrating measurable results of
international aid in fostering growth and reducing poverty.
These results matrices define the outcome indicators and
milestones for tracking WBG program progress and mid-course
corrective actions, fulfilling important accountability as
well as learning objectives. The results-based CAS approach
has brought several benefits including the focus on results,
better alignment between the WBG country engagement and
national priorities, and flexibility in instruments to
accommodate programming for the increasingly diverse set of
Bank clients, including International Development
Association (IDA), International Bank for Reconstruction and
Development (IBRD), and fragile countries. The matrix system
at work and RAP 2013, have demonstrated that a weak CAS
results framework is a key determinant of unsatisfactory
outcome performance at the country program level. The
objective of this note is to provide suggestions for
improvement in results frameworks for country strategies
based on an independent evaluation group (IEG) analysis of
WBG's country strategies approved during FY2008-14 and
the CAS completion report (CASCRs) prepared by country teams
during FY2012-14.
