work on domestic PSD – a brief overview From ROAR 2004 |
- This review of PSD activities at country level is based
on the ROAR database 2004. There are 32 countries that have
done activities regarding PSD.
- The service line 1.5 accounts for the lowest percentage,
seven per cent, of the total outcomes in the poverty practice.
About 40 per cent of activities under this service line
are devoted to supporting policies or laws for socially
and environmentally responsible private sector development
and about another 40 per cent is devoted to policies or
legislation favoring MSMEs. The residual activities, which
are related to strategies for inclusive financial sectors,
belong with microfinance activities under service line 1.3.*
- The activities focus on policy advocacy, capacity-building,
access to finance and investment.
- There are 15 countries and at least 18 initiatives focus
on policy advocacy. 9 countries among the 15 fully achieve
their goals.
- There are 18 countries and at least 21 initiatives focus
on capacity development. 11 countries among the 18 fully
achieve their goals.
- There are 7 countries focus on access to finance and investment.
4 countries among the 7 fully achieve their goals.
- In addition, there are 2 countries and at least 3 initiatives
address networking and knowledge management; the initiatives
in 3 countries relate to CSR; 5 countries are involved in
Global Compact.
- Most of the activities are meso-level interventions, which
are directed at capacity-building of intermediary institutions
and CSOs partners that support coordination among partners
and bridge government and the private sector.
- Macro level interventions address the macroeconomic
policies, rule of law, and infrastructure at national
level.
- Micro level interventions are activities that are
directly related to the private sector itself, such
as the activities that aim to support individual firms
to access capital, techniques, and knowledge.
