New approach summary paper: Tackling fraud in UK aid through multilateral organisations
5 Oct 2021
The Independent Commission for Aid Impact (ICAI) has today published its planned approach for a forthcoming rapid review of tackling fraud in UK aid through multilateral organisations.
The review will complement an earlier review on Tackling fraud in UK aid, which assessed the effectiveness of counter-fraud measures in official development assistance (ODA)-spending UK government departments, but excluded funding to multilateral organisations because it is subject to specific accountability mechanisms.
This further review will assess the extent to which the UK government ensures the effective management of fraud in its core funding to multilateral organisations, which are central to the UK’s global interests and objectives, and continue to receive a large proportion of UK ODA.
