Work begins on new review

18 Jan 2016

ICAI has begun a new review  – Achieving Impact and Value for Money in Conflict-affected Environments: DFID’s Approach to Managing Fiduciary Risk

This review will assess DFID’s approach to fiduciary risk management in conflict-affected environments where DFID has restricted access. Limited access to locations where aid is being delivered, due to insecurity, often means there are fewer channels available to deliver and monitor aid and this may lead to the risk of fraud, corruption or misuse of funds becoming heightened. The management of fiduciary risk in conflict-affected contexts is therefore a key factor in UK aid’s ability to achieve impact and value for money.
