The key Differences between the MTBF and the Traditional Budget n n n The MTBF integrates both recurrent and investment expenditure rather than the two traditional budgets of development and nondevelopment. Traditionally a budget has been formulated for 1 year - the MTBF introduces a multi-year time horizon for budget planning - in Bangladesh that is 3 years. MTBF brings together the policy planning and budgeting processes. Resource allocation is linked to the policies and priorities of the Ministry. The traditional budget approach is incremental i. e. a percentage added to last year’s allocation. The traditional budget focuses on inputs only. Under the medium term framework the output and outcome expected from the budget allocation is considered. Under MTBF line ministries are given enhanced authority to allocate funds according to their specific needs. 3
Background and Timeline of PFM Reforms in Bangladesh 1990 1989 – 1990 Committee on Reforms in Budgeting and Expenditure Control 1995 2000 1993 – 2002 Reforms in Budgeting and Expenditure Control Project 2005 2003 - 2009 Financial Management Reform Project 2010 2009 - ? PFM Vision Experience tells us that maintaining impetus for the reform process is key – minimise the “gaps” 4
MTBF - Background The 1 st phase of public financial reforms in Bangladesh, which originated from the CORBEC report in 1989 focused on technical improvements, examples: § Computerisation and consolidation of financial data; § New classification of accounts; 5
MTBF - Background The 2 nd phase of public financial reforms focused on improvements to resource management, through: • Macro modelling, debt management; • Strengthening the linkage between policy planning and budgeting; • Devolution of responsibility for planning and budgeting to the line ministries; • Increased focus on monitoring and evaluation both internal and external. 6

MTBF The Main Features § A medium term outlook to budget planning – 3 years § Linking policy priorities to resource allocations – NSAPR to budget § Emphasizing the efficient use of limited public resources 8
The Objectives of MTBF n The Objectives of MTBF in Summary: § Operationalising the NSAPR; § Enhancing line ministries capacity to formulate policy and programmes; § Delegating more responsibility for budget setting; § Performance measurement; 9
Success Achieved: MTBF Approach Macro economic forecasting RESOURCES PRIORITIES ACTIVITIES OUTPUTS NSAPR/National Policy Documents OUTCOMES Ministry Objectives 10
Success Achieved: MTBF Approach (Cont. ) Strategic phase Resource Allocation phase Budget Call Circular II Issued October Issued February 11
The Strategic Phase § Provide a direction for the ministry § Inject a sense of purpose into the ministries activities § Decide WHO we are, WHAT we do, and WHERE we are going § Provide a 3 year projection of total aggregate budget allocation – development and non-development 12
The Strategic Phase n Budget Call Circular I – Ministry Budget Framework (MBF) - Contents: • Mission Statement to reflect the management’s • • vision of what the ministry seeks to do and become The medium term strategic objectives The key activities Key performance indicators Targets against which performance can be measured Prioritisation of the use of resources Assess the poverty and gender impact of the strategies Initial allocation of aggregate development and non-development resources for 3 years 13
Detailed Resource Allocation Phase n Budget Call Circular II • The MBF (BCCI) will be evaluated by FD and PC. Based on this evaluation, and considering any changes in macro economic trends the ministry resources ceilings may be slightly revised, • Within the revised ceiling the ministry must undertake a detailed allocation of resources, • The resources are applied to achieve the targets and KPIs contained in the MBF 14
Budget Implementation and Monitoring n n Once the budget has been set the Ministry has an obligation to turn it into action; One key element of this is to compare actual performance against what was expected; This requires the regular production of performance reports for discussion at management level; Periodic Reports • • • n ADP monthly review CGA/CAO monthly financial information Departmental performance information Annual Reports • Ministry Wide Accounting • Entity Wide Audit 15

Total Budget & the MTBF Ministries 23
Gaps in PFM Reform § Involving senior officials in the MTBF process that is lack of ownership (what Finance Secretary is doing now by visiting line ministry with FD senior officers to motivate them in the process) § Updating financial and administrative powers in line with MTBF process § Insufficient training for MTBF related officials in the line ministry § Absence of regulations for retention of trained/experienced officials § No manual for MTBF process § Consultant driven and dependent § Lack of holistic approach 24
Challenges Faced § Frequent transfer of key staff § Avoiding duplication of other existing processes e. g. ADP preparation, review § Strengthening the BMC role in budget implementation and monitoring § Moving from input monitoring to output and finally outcome monitoring § Availability of timely monitoring information – both financial and output but especially outcome 25
Next steps? n n Continue to extend the process to more line Ministries; Review and refine the process every year; Institutional change at line ministry level Strengthen the performance reporting systems in the line Ministries: • More effective Key Performance Indicators; • Data collection and analysis; • Impact evaluation; 26
Next steps? n Improvements in the efficiency and effectiveness of Government’s delivery of services will depend on building the policy analysis and financial management skills within all of the Ministries. 27
