Project Implementation, Monitoring and Evaluation:(Cost $2.70 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Moderate Moderate Implementation Status and Key Decisions The last Implementation Support Mission of the project (conducted from may 8-18, 2017) continued to show good progress in the implementation of the PASEF, since the last ISM. Component 1: Increasing MSME access to finance. The partial portfolio credit guarantee (PPCG) continues to register important progress. The study on the determinants of interest rates has been finalized. After three years of existence, the Partial Portfolio Credit Guarantee (PPCG) continues to show a satisfactory performance with an increase in the number of credits and outstanding volume and an increasing number of Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs). Some of the PFIs are about to reach their maximum credit attributed by the PPCG. As of May 8, 2018, 8 FPIs participated to the PPCG (SME windows) with 1364 credits from 1261 client with a total outstanding of 57 billion Ariary ($ 18 million). 26 call on guarantee has been registered so far, of which 6 were rejected (non-conformity with the convention), still an acceptable level. An increase in the capital of PPCG is necessary to allow the continuity and the sustainability of the PPCG. The multiplier has been temporarily increased to 4, 8 TA are currently operational (of which two central TA and six TA operational within FPIs). The agriculture window (financed under the CASEF project) has disbursed its first tranche of capital (1,5 millions USD) on May 31, Five PFIs have confirmed their interest in participating to the agriculture window. the manual of PPCG has been amended to include the operations of the agriculture window, so as the MoU between the UGPCASEF, SOLIDIS and AGEPASEF. A cooperation agreement during the interim period of the closing of PASEF project and the new project on financial inclusion is being submitted for signature to the Ministry of Finance, UGPCASEF and the AGEPASEF The interest rate study for commercial banks and MFIs were all finalized and discussed in a validation workshop with all the stakeholders in May As a follow up to this study, the authorities will abrogate the ordinance 62 putting a ceiling on interest rates in Madagascar. Final rating: Given that the PPCG continues to perform well the rating for this component is maintained at Satisfactory Component 2: Strengthening the Microfinance sector. Good progress under component 2 continued since the last ISM. Several activities have been completed or have made significant progress. - Strengthening of the CSBF for a better supervision of the Microfinance sector: The offices of the territorial representations of BCM are all fully operational, all the procurement processes have been completed and the agents have received an adequate training. Cumulatively, 56 demand of licenses were registered at these offices since 2015 (out of an objective of 32). These offices will also be used to support the data transfer to feed the Centrales des Risques and feed the dynamic database from the IMF census and the BSA software. CSBF will also deal with the regulatory issue concerning AVEC (Assocation Villageoise d Epargne et de Crédit). The First-funded project that provides TA to CSBF in the strengthening of regulation and supervision of MFIs is progressing well and will be extended by an additional year. - Strengthening the capacity of MFIs: The results of the training provided in partnership with APIMF continue to be positive. All the activities planned under this activity has been accomplished. As of mars 2017, the final targets continue to be overachieved (1,646 staffs trained against an objective of 1076). 7 trainers were certified CGAP trainers, 20 MFIs and APIMF staff have benefitted from the Boulder training on microfinance. - Preparation of a legal framework for mobile banking services and for banking agents in Madagascar.

The training offered by the Technical Assistants on MIS has beenfinalized, since it was extended until the end of the project to insure the sustainability of the MIS. The test phase for the MIS to selected MFIs were successful. - Support to the Centrale des Risques de la Microfinance and to the data base for financial institutions : The operationalization of CRM was realized on time in Septembers 2016 as expected and the full migration in merging the Centrale des Risques de la Microfinance (CRM) and the Centrale des Risques Bancaire (CRB), into a single and unique Centrale des Risques (CR) was effective as expected in April As planned, 23 out of the 25 IMFs and 3 Financial instiotutions now use the Unified Centrale des Risques. The consultants on J2EE et OBIEE were fully integrated in the Central bank's Human Resource plan. With respect to the management of the data base of the credit establishments, the central bank of Madagascar has opted for a supervision software (Bank Supervision Application), developed by SADC. The BSA software has been installed successfully. Extension of MFIs in remote areas: good progress has been registered and branches of two MFIs (namely OTIV Tana et VOLAMAHASOA ) were operational as planned in Betsiboka and Anosy areas. Altogether 19 branches supported by the project are operational. 6/30/2017 Page 3 of 14
