Macroeconomi c & Trade Policies Public Sector Governance Gender of progress in poverty reduction and high inequality, a vulnerability of the economy to external shocks, and a precarious fiscal situation. Recently, negative shocks and the resulting slowdown in growth led to drops in per capita income increases in poverty and pressure on the fiscal balance but fall in per capita income was not uniform and has helped fuel the increasing social unrest. There is a high level of informality due high costs of doing business in Bolivia. Even though Bolivia s infrastructure sector has incorporated substantial private participation, Bolivia still needs substantial investment in this sector. High criticism to the low governance at different state levels, the lack of transparency and corruption, and intolerance to the performance of Over the last decade, the government has placed greater emphasis on tracking indicators related to gender, especially with regard to education, health, and the labor market. There is a commitment to decentralization.

Annex C Annex C: Bolivia CAS Debt Sustainability Analysis A. The Baseline Scenario 1. The baseline scenario assumes a conservative macro framework. Rates of output growth are lower than those employed in the scenario the Government and the IMF have agreed upon under the current IMF s Standby Agreement. In particular, it is assumed that without a gas export project, the real GDP growth converges to 3.6 percent (this figure being the average growth rate for 1990 2002, this period includes economic boom of mid 1990 s and the ongoing economic crisis that started in 1999). 1 This scenario takes into account the programmed World Bank support to Bolivia presented in this document. It is assumed that both the World Bank s and the other creditors graduation of concessional credits starts progressively in 2004. Exports and FDI inflows should be less buoyant that in previous scenarios, it is assumed that a gas export project would start in 2008. External capital flows are assumed to decrease in 2003 and 2004 recovering modestly afterwards; FDI increases from 2008 due to the gas export project. On the fiscal front, a progressive fiscal adjustment is assumed to take place over the 2004 08 period. The baseline scenario rules out the possibility of a financial crisis or generalized social conflicts. Table C2.1 summarizes the assumptions in the macroeconomic framework. Table C2.1: Key Macro-Indicators Baseline Scenario Actual Projections Indicator 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 Av. 1010-2015 (Annual percentage change ) Real GDP at market prices 2.8 2.6 3.2 3.6 3.6 3.6 3.6 3.7 4.4 CPI inflation (e.o.p) 2.4 3.0 3.3 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 Nominal devaluation (e.o.p.) 9.5 4.8 4.1 2.8 1.8 1.8 1.8 1.8 1.8 Exports volume 9.1 12.5 3.9 4.1 4.2 4.4 4.2 4.5 6.1 Imports volume 9.1-6.5 7.1 2.4 3.2 3.0 5.4 7.8 4.3 (In percent of GDP) Overall public balance -8.9-8.0-6.6-4.5-3.4-2.9-2.5-2.9-2.7 Exports of goods and services 19.7 22.9 23.8 24.5 24.9 25.3 25.7 26.2 29.2 Imports of goods and services 26.3 25.6 27.7 28.2 28.4 28.6 29.5 31.0 33.7 Current account -4.6-0.7-0.6-1.2-1.6-1.6-2.4-3.6-4.6 Foreign Direct Investment 8.6 2.1 2.9 3.0 2.7 2.6 2.5 3.9 4.5 2. In the baseline scenario total debt stock indicators do not show an explosive pattern (see Figure C2.1). The stock of debt to GDP deteriorates until 2005, reaching a level of 80.6 percent, 1. In the very short run, despite the decline in domestic demand (mainly due to the difficult social and political situation), exports are leading economic growth: the hydrocarbon sector sustained its performance, agriculture production (mainly due to soybeans) increased and textiles production recovered. In the medium-term, real output will be positively affected by the recovery of Brazil s gas demand (as currently projected). This would increase prospects for increasing gas exports to Brazil. Currently, gas exports stand at only about 13.5 MMm3 per day, while the take or pay clause of the Gas Supply Agreement has already reached 18 MMm3 per day. 77

then recovers and reaches 65.8 percent by 2015. The net present value (NPV) of debt to GDP deteriorates until 2005, reaching a level of 62 percent and remains constant until 2015. Convergence between the NPV debt and the nominal terms debt curves reveal the impact of the graduation and the increase in domestic debt. External debt flow indicators do not show an explosive pattern, either. 3. Domestic debt flow indicators suggest there will be liquidity problems in the mediumterm related to servicing domestic debt. Despite the primary balance adjustment, the shock debt indicators deteriorate dramatically from 2009 due to the increase of domestic debt service. This behavior reflects the recent increases in domestic debt, the shortage of external financing and the uneven composition of the domestic debt (concentrated in very short term and long term instruments) a significant amount of domestic have to be amortized in the very short term; by 2009 long term debt instruments (AFP bonds) start to be amortized, thus increasing debt service payments between 2009 to 2015. The pattern of domestic debt indicates that to achieve domestic debt sustainability the Government needs to find additional grants and concessional credits to substitute domestic financing (Scenario 5). To reduce domestic debt service payments in 2009 15, the Government should find alternative sources for financing the cost of the pension reform and find ways to diversify its total public debt.

Alternative Economic Performance and Fiscal Adjustment (Scenarios 2, 3 and 4) 4. Scenario 2 differs from the baseline only in the better fiscal adjustment of the Government, which aggressively reacts to lower economic performance by reducing its 78

expenditures and by increasing tax revenues 2. Given the current social and political situation, the fiscal adjustment assumed by this alternative scenario might be very difficult to implement. To assess how fiscal sustainability is affected by lower economic growth rates and less optimistic export prospects, Scenario 3 assumes more pessimistic GDP growth since there is no implementation of any project similar to the liquid natural gas (LNG) project. The FDI prospects are lower, export growth is significantly reduced. Other external financing assumptions are the baseline s. Fiscal adjustment assumptions for Scenario 3 are those from the baseline. Scenario 4 differs from the Scenario 3 in the better fiscal adjustment of the Government, which aggressively reacts to lower economic performance. 5. The outcome of alternative scenarios is presented in Figure C2.2 and Tables C2.2 to C2.5. Results from Scenario 2 show that if an aggressive fiscal adjustment takes place, debt sustainability is achieved; given the current social and political situation this fiscal adjustment might be difficult to implement. As compared to the baseline, Scenario 3 shows that all debt indicators deteriorate, attesting that if low economic performance is assumed, debt sustainability is significantly affected. However, fiscal sustainability in the low economic performance scenario can improve significantly if the Government reacts to lower growth rates by reducing current expenditures and/or increasing fiscal revenues (Scenario 4). 85 Figure C2.2: Alternative Economic Performance and Degree of Fiscal Adjustment Key Indicators of Debt Sustainability Nominal Debt to GDP 70 NPV of Debt to GDP 45 Debt service to Public Revenues 80 40 65 75 35 70 60 30 % of GDP 65 60 % of GDP 55 % of total revenues 25 20 55 50 15 50 10 45 45 5 40 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 40 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 0 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Year Baseline scenario With LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment Without LNG and partial fiscal ajustment Without LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment Year Baseline scenario With LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment Without LNG and partial fiscal ajustment Without LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment Year Baseline scenario With LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment Without LNG and partial fiscal ajustment Without LNG and agresive fiscal ajustment C. Scenario with No Domestic Financing and only External Financing (Scenario 5) 6. An alternative scenario, based on the base case, is considered to illustrate the relative contribution of the build-up of internal debt to Bolivia s debt problem. To do so, the base case is 2. Starting from the baseline fiscal adjustment assumption, Scenario 2 assumes that current expenditures are reduced by 0.25 percent of GDP per year from 2004 to 2015 and that tax revenues increase by 0.25 percent of GDP per year from 2005 to 2015. 79

compared with a hypothetical case which includes no internal financing with the entire debt financed by an unidentified external creditor under conditions that would prevail under a blend of concessionary and nonconcessionary financing. 3 Figure C2.3 compares the results of this scenario with those of the baseline. In this scenario, stock and flow indicators are better than in the base case and the nominal value and NPV of debt to GDP are reduced significantly in the medium term. The debt service to public revenues also decreases. This reflects the impact of more expensive domestic debt and highlights the danger of the government turning to more accessible but more expensive domestic debt to finance the fiscal deficit. 85 Nominal Debt to GDP Figure C2.3: No Domestic Financing Scenario Key Indicators of Debt Sustainability 85 NPV of Debt to GDP 45 Debt service to Public Revenues 80 80 40 75 75 35 70 70 30 % of GDP 65 60 % of GDP 65 60 % of total revenues 25 20 55 55 15 50 50 10 45 45 5 40 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Year Baseline scenario No domestic financing scenario 2014 2015 40 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Year Baseline scenario No domestic financing scenario 2013 2014 2015 0 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Year Baseline scenario No domestic financing scenario 2014 2015 D. Scenarios of Financial Crisis and Insufficient Fiscal Adjustment (Scenarios 6 and 7) 7. Two critical scenarios were simulated to evaluate the effects of two risks in the Bolivian economy: (i) the possible inability to attain a progressive fiscal adjustment (Scenario 6); and (ii) the effects of a financial crisis triggered say by further political instability and/or increased social unrest (Scenario 7). 4 Figure C2.4 compares the results of these two scenarios with those of the baseline. Results of Scenario 6 do not show fiscal sustainability: the domestic debt service 3. The assumed conditions in scenario 5 are: 10 years of maturity, 2 years of grace and an interest rate of 4 percent. 4. Starting from the assumptions of Scenario 3 (without gas), Scenario 6 assumes a permanent increase in current expenditures of 1 percent GDP from 2004 onwards; the long term growth rate of real output is reduced by 0.5 percentage points. External capital flows, especially of FDI and export performance are reduced as well. The baseline-scenario-levels of external financing are maintained, this implies that public debt growth is explained essentially by an increase in domestic debt. Scenario 7 starts from the assumptions of Scenario 3 as well and assumes that a financial crisis takes place during 2004. The total fiscal cost of the financial crisis is assumed to amount 5 percent of GDP and is fully supported by the Government of Bolivia (GOB) during 2004 and is financed by domestic debt. 80

becomes such a heavy burden for fiscal accounts that by 2008 the ratio of nominal stock of debt to GDP enters in an unstable exploding path. Due to liquidity and solvency difficulties in the medium-term, this scenario is clearly fiscal unsustainable. Results of Scenario 7 lie between the results of Scenarios 6 and 3; they do not show fiscal sustainability either. Similarly, debt service starts to increase rapidly from 2009 onwards. As a result, the ratio of the stock debt to GDP remains constant at about 70 percent of GDP (reflecting the relative increase of debt in commercial terms domestic debt, relative to debt on concessional terms).

Annex E ANNEX E: BOLIVIA CAS - INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION ASSISTANCE 1. Basic information about the nature of the entire portfolio of the International Cooperation was collected as part of the CAS preparation, through a joint effort of the World Bank, IDB and the Government. This information is based on an extensive canvassing of the main agencies working in Bolivia, taking into account their plans for the period 2003-2006. Some of the important findings from that study are as follows: External assistance is of critical importance to overall public finances. 2. External assistance reached roughly 10 percent of GDP last year and financed roughly one third of the public budget. The total is more that all public investment. The Government resorted to increased financing from CAF in 2002 to finance part of the fiscal deficit. Disbursements from all sources in 2002 reached US$784 million compared to an average of US$572 million in the previous years. CAF disbursements in 2002 were US$278 million, roughly US$200 million more than their average of the previous three years. The levels of assistance provided by different agencies are presented below in Table E.1. There are roughly US$1.6 billion in undisbursed resources in existing projects and roughly US$800 million a year projected in new flows. Table E.1.

3. The projected new flows represent a significant increase over what Bolivia received over the 1998-2001, which was around US$572 million. This increase is largely due to increases of the multilaterals, rather than the bilaterals. Table E.2 shows how the current stock of projects are distributed and where new resources are expected to be allocated. There is considerable inertia in the system. The planned allocation of resources for the period 2003 06 looks very similar to the actual allocation of resources that were made between 1998 and 2001 Table E.2.

Table E.3 contrasts planned expenditures over the period 2003 06 with actual disbursements over the 1998 01 period. 5. The planned allocations represent the aggregation of decisions taken independently by the different agencies. Because the original PRSP did not specify detailed priorities, virtually all donor activities were considered to be consistent with the strategy. Thus, no reorientation of the portfolio to the PRSP took place between 2001 and 2003. 6. Some initial observations on planned expenditures over the 2003 06 period that are worth noting include the following. The amount projected to be spent in education in the future (2003 06) is less than in the past and is lower (at 6 percent of total external resources) than one might expect given its importance. A high percentage of past and future external resources are spent on institutional strengthening (roughly 17 percent or projected for 2003 06, some US$500 million). One could certainly question whether there has been sufficient progress to show for the amount spent (largely in paying salaries). Relatively small amounts are projected for 92

productivity and competitiveness (3.2 percent of total assistance), despite the emphasis on this topic in the government's revised PRSP. Table E.3.

The detailed analysis of external assistance revealed excessive dispersion of effort. Over 1998 2002 there were 633 agreements signed between the Government and the International Cooperation that translated into over 1700 development projects. The distribution of agreements by thematic area is provided in TableE.4. 93

The sheer numbers of projects complicates greatly the task of generating a results orientation. Even if one were to assume that each project has only one objective (which typically is not the case), this would imply that the Government is trying to achieve at least 1,700 objectives. Obviously, this is infeasible. 94

Annex G. Experience over the last CAS period Country: Bolivia Date of CAS: May 1998 Date of Progress Report(s): May 2001 Annex G Introduction The last full Country Assistance Strategy (CAS) for Bolivia was designed to cover five years (FY98-FY02) so as to coincide with the term of the then-newly-elected Government of Hugo Banzer. It was entirely aligned with the government s development plan except for the component relating to coca eradication policy where the Bank decided to not be active because it does not have a comparative advantage in the area. In May 2001, in light of two important developments that would have an impact on the Bank s assistance the introduction of the Comprehensive Development Framework (CDF) and the preparation of Bolivia s Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) a CAS Progress Report was presented to the Board. The CAS Progress Report presented a planned lending program for FY03 that included new actions to make the Bank s program consistent with the PRSP. This annex looks back at the country planning process and the achievement of country results and CAS outcomes over the last CAS period (1998 2002). It also assesses the performance of the Bank during the previous CAS period in terms of the quality of its products and services, the delivery of its lending and technical assistance program and the status of the portfolio. Over the last years, the Bank has worked closely with other donors to support the government s program. Thus, this report presents some of the important findings from an Operations Evaluation Department (OED) assessment of the implementation of the CDF in Bolivia, which allowed the Bank to play an important role in the donor coordination effort. It also reports on the extensive consultation process that culminated in the preparation of the country s PRSP, which was fully supported by the Bank. This report concludes by presenting a brief assessment of the performance of the CAS. A. Country Planning Process Following a nation-wide participatory process that brought together government and civil society representatives in 1997 (known as the First National Dialogue), the Banzer Administration developed a National Action Plan for the 1997 2002 period. The plan was a comprehensive strategy structured around four pillars dignity, equity, institutionality and opportunity designed to deal with coca eradication, improve social indicators and reduce inequality, promote institutional reform and foster economic growth and reduce poverty. It identified the most important development challenges and possible actions to address them. In 1997, the incoming Banzer Administration also launched an external aid framework called the Nuevo Marco de Relacionamiento entre el Gobierno y la Cooperación Internacional, a proposal aimed at increasing the effectiveness of development aid and aligning external assistance with political vision. In May 1999 the Government and the Bank officially launched the CDF, but the implementation of its principles long-term holistic vision, country ownership, country- led 115

partnership and results orientation took place in the middle of a complex situation: at the same time that recognized economic, social and institutional advances were taking place, social tensions were becoming even more evident. By 2000 Bolivia was eligible for a debt reduction package under the enhanced Highly Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC II) initiative. Bolivia qualified to begin receiving assistance under HIPC II when the Boards of the Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) endorsed the country s PRSP in early 2001. One of the noteworthy features of Bolivia s PRSP is that it was developed following an extensive bottom-up consultation process. In 2000, the government undertook a broad consultation process with civil society and with representatives of municipal governments known as the Second National Dialogue. The PRSP considerably redefined the nature of the government s interventions by recognizing the important role municipalities should play in reducing poverty. With the HIPC II debt relief, for the first time resources were going to be distributed to municipalities in accordance with poverty criteria. The PRSP was a comprehensive strategy organized around the following four strategic components: (i) expanding employment and income opportunities by supporting and promoting productive capabilities, (ii) building capabilities by guaranteeing improvements in the delivery of social services, (iii) increasing security and protection for the poor and the most vulnerable segments of the population, and (iv) promoting integration and social participation. Tracking Results There have been several efforts to set and track targets related to development outcomes in Bolivia. The country s initial efforts at identifying results and establishing performance targets began with the HIPC I initiative in 1998 and were taken up again as a central part of the progress review conducted during the Consultative Group (CG) meetings later that year. This set of indicators and target goals replaced those indicators established under the National Action Plan. In August of 2000, the Government noted that 16 out of the 17 core targets were met. In particular, significant advances were made in increasing the productivity of labour in the nontraditional agricultural sector, providing piped water, modernizing public administration, and eradicating coca. Bolivia s PRSP established the overarching goal of reducing poverty levels from 63 percent in 2000 to 41 percent by 2015. It is difficult at this early stage to report on progress in this longterm goal, but the PRSP also established another set of impact, intermediate and results indicators that are being closely monitored by the Government. Since the PRSP was endorsed in early 2001, the Government s Economic and Social Policy Analysis Unit (UDAPE) prepared a series of progress reports. In qualitative terms, these reports identify the main recognized achievements of the PRSP to be: (i) a better targeting of resources at poverty reduction; (ii) the progressive distribution of resources so as to benefit the poorest population and the creation of the Fondo Solidario Municipal to reduce the historical shortage in the availability of teachers and health staff, primarily in poor rural municipalities; (iii) the development of participatory mechanisms at the municipal level to improve decision-making in resource allocation; (iv) the implementation of the Mechanism of Social Control (MCS), which includes civil society institutions and an inter- institutional government committee, designed to improve participatory evaluation mechanisms to follow-up on the PRSP; and (v) substantial progress regarding the PRSP implementation plan. 116

The implementation of the CDF in Bolivia strengthened the focus on results in the public sector and the donor community. By 2000, Bolivia was already known as one of the two countries that had made the most overall progress among all CDF countries. The OED carried out a multipartner evaluation of Bolivia s progress in all four principles of the CDF: a long-term, holistic framework; results orientation; country ownership; and country-led partnership. According to the OED evaluation, there have been important achievements under the CDF, Bolivia s PRSP has succeeded in articulating a long-term vision focused on poverty alleviation, and other wideranging reforms have taken place. Government ownership of the CDF was strong and the process of developing the PRSP was a step forward in extending its principles beyond the public sector. The development of the PRSP benefited from strong participation from various segments of civil society, and it emerged as a bottom-up process. The continuation of the process has being guaranteed by the passage of the Dialogue Law. Progress has also been made in the government taking ownership of the donors long desired goal of improving the civil service system. In terms of partnership, an effective in-country forum for partner coordination was temporarily in place, and donor assistance programs were aligned with the country National Action Plan and then with Bolivia s PRSP. The increased government participation in donorgovernment CG meetings is a major advance, while steps have been taken in moving away from traditional donor-driven and freestanding projects toward broader sector-wide approaches that support national goals. With regard to a focus on results, the development of information systems has been impressive in the last few years (a summary of the production of statistical information is provided in Box. 1) and there has been some progress in elaborating mechanisms to track development results. Box 1. Information systems In general, the production of statistical information is carried out in conjunction with the organizations that make up the National System of Statistical Information. The actual production of basic statistical information in Bolivia is realized principally by the National Institute of Statistics (Instituto Nacional de Estadistica, INE), the Economic Analysis Policy Unit (Unidad de Análisis de Políticas Económicas y Sociales, UDAPE), and the sectoral ministries. Raw data is obtained through the national censuses, surveys, and administrative registers which, in turn, are compiled from health centers, educational units, ministries, municipal offices, and some public comp anies. The Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) collects and maintains all data sources for poverty reduction efforts. There are two principal data sources used for measuring and monitoring poverty in Bolivia: a national census (of which the last installment was in 2001) and various household surveys. The national census (Censo Nacional de Poblacion y Vivienda), carried out approximately every ten years, provides data on non-monetary indicators of well-being which is then used for building poverty maps and targeting government interventions using the concept of Unmet Basic Needs (Necesidades Basicas Insatisfechas or NBI). The INE-UDAPE- Censo 2001 recently provided an update of the country s NBI-based poverty map (2002). In addition to this census, Bolivia s INE has implemented over the years a number of multi-purpose household surveys. Until 1995, INE carried out the Encuesta Integrada de Hogares in Bolivia s larger cities. The key results for the 1989-1995 period are available on CD-ROM, and standardized data files for selected years have been prepared by CEPAL. In 1996 and 1997, INE implemented three rounds of the Encuesta Nacional de Empleo (June 1996, November 1996, and November 1997). These surveys had national coverage. The November 1997 survey is the richest in terms of content because it contains detailed modules on education and health. In March 1999, INE implemented the Encuesta Continua de Hogares again in Bolivia s larger cities. The survey provided information on both income and, to a lesser degree, expenditures. Then, in November 1999, INE implemented the Encuesta Continua de Hogares Condiciones de Vida at the national level. This survey benefited in part from the support of the MECOVI program. The range of questions in this 1999 survey is 117

more comprehensive than in previous surveys due to modules on health, education, occupation, income, and expenditures. The module on expenditures has been particularly useful for future poverty monitoring. These surveys are not always comparable due to changes over time in the questionnaires and the fact that some of surveys have only been implemented in large urban areas only, making it difficult to establish national poverty trends in Bolivia in the 1990s. Some additional information for rural areas is also available in two surveys conducted in 1993 and 1997 by Bolivia s social investment fund (Fondo de Inversion Social, FIS). But these surveys are not fully representative of rural areas so results should be treated with caution. INE currently fields the Encuesta Continua de Hogares Condiciones de Vida regularly and at a national level. Its advantages are principally that instead of income, expenditures are the preferred indicator of wellbeing, and the use of the survey to compute the cost of basic food and non-food needs. Since October of 1999, Bolivia has participated in the MECOVI (Mejoramiento de las Encuestas y la Medicion de las Condiciones de Vida en America Latina y el Caribe) program coordinated jointly by CEPAL, the Inter-American Development Bank, and the World Bank. Among its aims are to improve the system of household surveys, improve the use of surveys for poverty targeting, and strengthen the institutional capacity of member countries to analyze the survey data for policy and project design. In Bolivia, MECOVI assisted INE in its efforts to create an Integrated System of Household Surveys as part of the strategy of statistical information to combat poverty. Success to Date in Achieving the Millennium Development Goals Recently, Bolivia has adopted a modified version of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), aligning its PRSP to a set of MDGs that best reflects its situation. The adoption of the MDGs by Bolivia and the international community has changed the results-orientation approach from an extensive and often ambiguous list of indicators to a more concrete selected set of goals and targets. The original version of the country s PRSP contains a broad range of almost fifty indicators; a revised version of the strategy identifies a selected group of twelve targets. In this way, the country has taken a first step in adopting a modified version of the MDGs by aligning its PRSP to a selection of MDGs. The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) has been regularly tracking the status of the country with respect to the MDGs (see Table 1) in conjunction with UDAPE and INE. 118

Source: World Development Indicators database, April 2002 Progress Achieved in Introducing a Results Orientation in the Public Sector Despite the Government s increased focus on setting and tracking targets, there has been much less progress made in all the supporting activities needed to make a results-based management (RBM) system work in Bolivia. For example, there has been little connection between the setting of targets and the preparation of the ministerial annual operating plans, budgetary allocations, or the design of externally financed development programs. An RBM approach emphasizes the need to clarify the underlying cause and effect relations between actions and results. However, many agencies appear to be stuck at the conceptual level of fixing results, without putting into place practical, operatio nal systems to monitor intermediate indicators. 120

The findings of a UK s Development Strategies report on RBM in Bolivia 1 are revealing. The report argues that advances to date with a comprehensive results-based management approach have been limited, principally because of the difficulty of introducing public sector reform into a system where political patronage remains strong. It states that [r]esults-based public expenditure management is based on a system of performance measures, selection of targets, evaluation and verification and monitoring. However, it requires a minimally effective bureaucracy, especially in personnel management, budgeting and financial controls. The Bolivian public administration does not meet these minimum requirements. Recently, the World Bank has been active in helping the government development operational systems to track targets and monitor intermediate indicators. The progress to date is discussed in Box 2. Box 2. Attributing Outcomes to Policy Actions The World Bank has been helping the government develop a system dynamics approach as a way of developing rather complex, graphic, structural models of these dynamic relations in a given system easily and intuitively. A system dynamics approach is particularly useful since a result is rarely due to a single action. Even in simple cases, results depend on a multitude of policy actions each with its own dynamic path that affect outcomes within that system. The approach also allows for the representation of the dynamic aspects of feedback effects and time lags in a system and helps avoid the difficulty of keeping multiple dynamic relationships in one s head. It also offers important benefits for planning and for monitoring and evaluation activities. To date, the government and the World Bank have finished a model that analyzes the relations between health sector policies and underlying epidemiological risks that together determine the prevalence of malaria in the country. The model takes into account the feedback between infected individuals and the rate of transmission of the disease, as well as the actions undertaken and the government s planned 2001 05 strategic sector plan, and also tracks the costs and financing needs contemplated by the plan. Socioeconomic factors that affect, say, the responses by different groups to a diagnosis and treatment program can be factored into the model. Similarly, exogenous factors that may affect the outcome, but may not be amenable to public policy, can be incorporated. Progress has also been made in modeling the relation between policy actions and infant mortality and infectious disease outcomes. Finally, there is an effort underway to analyze the relations between educational policy decisions and outcomes. C. Country Development Results and CAS Outcomes The previous CAS proposed a set of core outcome benchmarks to help guide, monitor and evaluate the implementation of the CAS during the coming five years. Table 2 presents the targets as originally proposed and the actual values of the benchmarks in 2002. 1. Carlos Montes. Development Strategies: Results-Based Public Management in Bolivia. Working Paper 202. February 2003. 121

Although the FY98 FY02 CAS stated that the effectiveness of the CAS should be judged by its ability to deliver the desired poverty reduction results, it is unlikely that the poor outcomes can be attributed to the World Bank. The lack of progress in the core CAS benchmarks is largely due to the difficult economic situation that Bolivia has gone through over the last five years. During the late 1990s and early 2000, Bolivia was hit by external and internal shocks that led to lower growth rates and stressed the private and public sectors. The last five years have been years of low growth, stagnation in poverty reduction and increasing social conflict. There were several external factors that turned unfavourable beginning in 1998. The Russian crisis and the devaluation of the Brazilian real led to a sudden stop of capital inflows and capital outflows in emerging markets, decelerating growth, particularly among Bolivia s trading partners, leading to less demand for Bolivian exports. 2 The Argentinean crisis of 2001, involving curtailment of credit and a sharp devaluation of the Argentine currency reduced Bolivian exports to Argentina, increased competition in the domestic market from cheap Argentine imports, and diminished remittances from Bolivian workers in Argentina. When the external environment turned unfavourable in 1998, banks, and in particular foreign banks that had recently acquired local banks, quickly reacted by reducing and restructuring their portfolios. The effects of these external shocks were compounded by internal shocks caused by the eradication of coca crops, an aggressive campaign against smuggling as part of the Customs Reform which was supported by the Bank and by adverse weather shocks. The worsening 2 World Bank analysis shows a high correlation between the cyclical growth component of Bolivia and its Andean trading partners. The analysis also shows a high correlation between Bolivia s growth and that of Argentina and Brazil. These results suggest there are two sources of shocks that affect Bolivia a direct shock that lowers growth in Bolivia and an indirect shock that lowers growth in trading partners that leads to lower demand for Bolivian exports. The systemic drop in capital inflows to the LAC region in the late 1990s could explain the strong change in Bolivia s growth. 122

economic situation has been exacerbated by an escalating trend of social conflicts that emerged in early 2000 and continues today. The net effect of these economic shocks and social conflict was a drop in the rate of growth from 5.03 percent in 1998 to 2.8 percent in 2002 and an increase in poverty rates from 60 to 64 percent between 1999 and 2001. By the end of the 1990s, the fiscal situation had deteriorated due to the lag in growth and subsequent drop in tax revenues. The difficulties the public sector faced were shared by the corporate and financial sectors, as reflected in their negative performance indicators. Table 3 demonstrates that the actual economic performance of key economic indicators turned out worse than even CAS low case scenario projections. Table 3.

This matrix turned out to be quickly supplanted by a reduced set of core and complementary indicators developed jointly by the Government and donors that were reviewed during the CG meetings. Although Country Performance Indicators in the CAS Program Matrix received very little follow-up because they were so soon replaced by a different set, Attachment Table 1 attempts to report on progress towards meeting the original targets. In retrospect, the task of comparing actual outcomes to the targets proved exceedingly difficult. Many targets were not quantified. Others were difficult to measure. Some can only be measured with census data that is reported every 10 years. Moreover, because the Government and donors chose to track a different set of country performance indicators, the country performance indicators in the CAS Program Matrix 123

were not actively tracked and the Bank indicators were not updated when the nature of the lending program changed. Based on what could be reviewed, the performance in meeting targets was decidedly mixed. In the equity area, many of the targets were met. A greater emphasis on social policies was followed by a greater allocation of resources and an observed impact on social indicators. Social expenditure increased from 15.7 percent of GDP in 1998 to 19.6 percent in 2002, and the efficiency and quality of social services improved as well. The introduction and implementation of the health reform has led to an important increase in coverage across priority indicators i.e. births attended by trained personnel, complete pre- natal care attendance, administration of DPT/Pentavalent vaccine. Indeed, the impact of the Bank s assistance in the health sector has been remarkable. In the education sector, the impact of the Bank s assistance has also been strong. Drawing upon advances made by the previous administration, the Government managed to push forward a transformation of both the institutional and technical-pedagogical aspects of the education system. Net primary coverage has reached 96.4 percent and the primary completion rate reached 72.7 percent with an annual increase of two percentage points per year, placing Bolivia on track to achieve universal primary education by 2015. However, on the macro front, over the last CAS period the Bank underestimated the limited ability of the economy to withstand shocks. Moreover, the fiscal imbalance was reinforced by the deterioration of the banking and corporate sectors, which added to the problems created by the pension system reform, putting the fiscal framework on a non-sustainable, explosive path. Finally, the objective of poverty reduction was not achieved, and the system of safety nets proved inflexible and unable to protect the most vulnerable groups in the events of unexpected shocks. While the Bank carried out a useful study on the microeconomic constraints to growth, the lending program over the past CAS period did not address the bottlenecks that impede higher growth. With regard to institutional reforms and decentralization, achievements are mixed. There was progress in consolidating reforms in three key public agencies: the National Customs Service, the Tax Services and the National Roads Service. Between 1998 and 2001, tax revenues collected by the Tax Service increased from 7.48 percent to 10.9 percent of GDP and, during the same period, more than 20,000 public employees in the upper and middle levels of government presented a sworn statement of their personal goods. In the judicial sector, important laws were approved to deal with criminal procedures and the civil code. A Civil Service Statute was approved and a Civil Service Superintendency was created. SIGMA an integrated financial management system has been implemented in the whole central administration and will be soon implemented at the departmental and municipal levels. There remains, however, important aspects of both SIGMA and the PRI that are still pending, including extending the implementation of SIGMA to Municipalities and Prefectures that will require further evaluation to determine their financial, technical, and institutional sustainability over time. Institutional reforms succeeded in three key autonomous agencies (national roads, customs and tax services), however, the core of the public sector remains largely unreformed and still suffers from deep institutional weakness. Taking into account institutional constraints within the judicial branch, the Bank decided to drop its support aimed at strengthening the judicial system. 124

Regarding decentralization, the WBG plays, through the CAS and its lending instruments, an important role to unify donor support to the area of fiscal and administrative decentralization in Bolivia. There are three important lessons that can be learned from the experience to date. First, while implementation of the program supported by specific operation (e.g. the PSAC-I) has been, in general, satisfactory, and basic institutional arrangements for decentralization established at the outset of the program are in place, continued efforts are needed in the areas of reinforcing the incentive structure and system of administrative controls to address the core aspects of the decentralization process, including the need for fiscal discipline, clear lines of responsibility among the levels of public administration, and the involvement of civil society stakeholders in the delivery and oversight of services at the local level. The programmatic adjustment approach provides a good instrument for continuing such support. Second, the new government is using the flexibility of the programmatic approach to improve the institutional arrangements for decentralization including establishing the Comité de Análisis de Descentralización (CAD) and rethinking the role of the FPS and provide the basis for the soon-to-be finalized National Decentralization Strategy. Third, the centrality of decentralization within the Bolivian Poverty Reduction Strategy and the challenges inherent to operations with multiple partners and government stakeholders require a high level of donor and WBG coordination and intense supervision of the government s decentralization program. IFC Accomplishments since last CAS Despite the adverse social and economic conditions that prevailed during the past few years, the implementation of IFC s strategy has been strong in supporting the Bolivian private sector during one of the most difficult periods in recent history. The 1998 CAS/PSS articulated IFC s main areas of focus: (i) financial sector development; (ii) support for SMEs and microenterprises through financial intermediaries; (iii) private infrastructure; (iv) support for general industry, including export-oriented enterprises in manufacturing, gas, and mining; and (v) non- investment activity to improve the business environment. As of October 31, 2003, IFC s portfolio (outstanding loans, syndicated loans and equity) stood at US$105 million. Three-quarters of the portfolio consisted of infrastructure projects, including transportation, power, water infrastructure, and telecommunications, while the rest consisted of the financial sector, mining, and chemicals. IFC s support has been strong relative to the size of the economy. During FY99 FY04 (through October 2003), IFC committed to financing for 12 projects for US$132 million, including syndications, focusing on the IFC s CAS priority areas and following on the Bank s work in the relevant sectors. The relatively small size of projects in the industrial sector has been a constraint for direct IFC investment. By providing six credit lines (including the four new lines approved in FY03) in the financial sector for non-lending to SMEs and microenterprises, IFC has been able on a wholesale basis to reach smaller companies while supporting financial institutions. Support for private infrastructure has been provided through projects in electricity, soybean-shipping port, railway, telecommunications, and water and sanitation, capitalizing on the early gains in Bank supported regulatory reform. The river port project, combined with the privatized railway (through an IFCsupported railway project in Chile) from Santa Cruz to Puerto Suarez, is supporting shipment of increased soybean production thereby revitalizing the rural economy. FIAS provided assistance in regulatory and administrative barriers to investment, and the Bank-IFC joint SME Department carried out an SME mapping a study for diagnosing and addressing existing constraints to 125

SME development. This study combined with the Bank s Microeconomic Constraints study are now feeding into several initiatives to have a more targeted and efficient approach to provide assistance to microenterprises and SMEs. Building partly on these works, IFC launched a regional SME Facility approved by the Board in June 2003 to provide technical assistance and capacity building programs for microenterprises and SMEs, initially covering Bolivia, Peru, Honduras and Nicaragua. D. Measuring Bank Performance Portfolio Assessment Between FY98 FY02 there has been a rationalization of the Bank s portfolio. The number of projects decreased from 21 in FY98 to 17 as of October 2003. Between FY99 and FY01, there was a sharp deterioration in the quality of the portfolio. As of end-fy01 Bolivia had 35 percent of its commitments at risk (compared to 7 percent as of end-fy99) and had 24 percent of its projects at risk. As a result of the increase in the riskiness of the portfolio, in FY02 Bolivia was added to the list of PIP (Portfolio Improvement Program) countries, subject to intensive portfolio monitoring and supervision. Between August 2001 and June 2002, bi- monthly follow-up Country Portfolio Performance Reviews took place in Bolivia. An action plan identifying critical steps, responsible unit/sector and target dates was prepared. It focused on restructuring some problem projects, ensuring the availability of counterpart funds, monitoring bidding processes, tracking overall disbursements and carrying out some project-specific actions. Five quantitative benchmarks and targets related to portfolio monitoring indicators were set for FY02. One year later, a strong improvement in portfolio indicators was followed by the removal of the country from the improvement program. Bolivia s portfolio performance went beyond the targets set under the PIP. In FY02, the percentage of commitments at risk were less than half the target of 20 percent established in the action plan, while the percentage of projects at risk dropped from 24 percent in FY01 to 11 percent in FY02 and the proactivity index increased from 0 to 100 percent. Table 4 presents a comparative view of the portfolio performance over the last CAS period. There has been a deterioration of the portfolio in FY03, with a sharp increase in the number of risk flags from 7 in FY02 to 28 in FY03 (40 percent are related to procurement and project management). 126

Quality of Products and Services OED evaluated 21 projects that exited between FY98 and FY03. Regarding Bank performance, about 81 percent of the projects evaluated are rated as satisfactory, only one of the projects has a highly satisfactory record and three were rated unsatisfactory. Regarding portfolio management, Bolivia projects were only part of the sample in 2000 for Quality at Entry Assessment (QEA), both projects were rated satisfactory at entry. Results are encouraging, but it is worth mention that during FY03 (not reflected in Table 5) one Bolivia project was sampled for QEA and received only a marginally satisfactory rating. Between FY97 and FY03, ten projects were selected for a Quality at Supervision Assessment and in FY01 two projects were evaluated as part of the Quality at Supervision of risky projects, 82 percent were satisfactorily supervised. Table 5 and Table 6 summarize the assessment of these projects. Table 5.

It is worth noting that the nature of the projects changed somewhat over the course of the CAS period from what had been planned at the beginning of the period. Table 7 compares actual to planned projects, it can be clearly seen that a number of projects were dropped or delayed. In fact, only five of the 18 proposed projects were actually carried out, reflecting the adaptation of the Bank s program of support to the economic, social and political circumstances faced by the country. For instance, the series of municipal development projects were replaced by a series of PSACs in decentralization in order to tackle issues within the whole system of decentralization instead of providing support to stand-alone municipal projects. Similarly, a Judicial Reform project was dropped in face of political constraints and a Secondary and Higher Education Reform project was dropped due to difficulties in carrying out two major reforms in the education sector the Education Reform Program was being implemented in primary. The introduction of a Social Safety Net SAC in FY03 responded to the urgent need to provide immediate response to the current social and economic crisis in Bolivia. It helped the Government to close a financing gap in 2003 while guaranteeing the provision of basic social services during the period of fiscal adjustment. The approval of only one project for US$5 million in fiscal year 2000 stands out. This occurred as the result of an explicit decision by the Bank not to go forward with additional projects until the Government proceeded with the institutionalization of the National Road Service. This decision reflects the seriousness that Bank attached to institutional development with the launching of the CDF. Other changes included: (i) the replacement of a proposed series of investment projects in municipal development for a far-ranging Programmatic Structural Adjustment Credit in decentralization; (ii) dropping a secondary and higher education standalone project in favour of modifying the existing Education Reform project to incorporate a program of initial reforms in higher education (given resistance to higher education reforms within the universities, this approach was adopted to promote a low-key, home-grown demand for change); (iii) dropping a Judicial Reform project and two other institutional reform projects, given the difficulties in obtaining progress in this area; (iv) replacing two stand-alone highway projects with a single road rehabilitation and maintenance project because it was felt that this project was likely to have greater impact; and (v) dropping two rural investment projects as a 128

result of experiences with corruption in the Fondo de Desarrollo Campesino, one of the main executing agencies for rural development. The planned lending program for FY03 was presented to the Board in the CAS Progress Report of May 2001. The actual lending program for FY03 departed from the original plans because of the need to respond to the economic, political and social crisis that had been building over the last several years and which came to a head in the violent protests in February 2003. In particular, the Social Protection Project was designed to protect essential social expenditures, especially those directed to alleviate the short-term hardships faced by the poor. Table 7.

Appropriateness of Instruments and Fiduciary Issues The use of APLs was appropriate given the strong emphasis on long-term institutional reform. LILs are being used effectively to test new approaches (Indigenous People Development) and to address specific issues in sectors where the Bank has limited interventions (Hydrocarbons). Significant attention was given to fiduciary issues. The results of the CFAA and the CPAR were included as benchmarks of an adjustment operation (PSAC I). E. Consultation Over the last CAS period the Bank s program of support was entirely aligned with the government s development plan, first to the National Action Plan and later to the country s PRSP. Both of them resulted from broad consultation processes, the First and Second National Dialogues, respectively. This section will discuss the government s efforts to move towards more open and participatory policy planning. In 1997, the Government convened National Dialogues that brought together different sectors of society to discuss Government plans and public policy objectives. Subsequent and successive rounds of this National Dialogue were envisioned; each expected to build upon the results of the previous rounds. In October of 1997, the Government convened the First National Dialogue that brought together representatives from the business community, the church, civil society organizations, labor groups, NGOs, and universities, with the Government and opposition parties also participating. Despite some shortcomings, the dialogue produced various positive outcomes and resulted in agreements to support a program to reduce poverty and boost economic growth. This led to the National Action Plan mentioned in previous sections. Against this backdrop, the Government prioritized social spending and began implementing programs aimed at alleviating poverty and improving the living conditions of the population. Although the Government made substantial efforts to implement this strategy, little follow-up was done before the inauguration of the second National Dialogue in 2000. A multi-disciplinary group was also convened to work on a proposal to fight poverty. In September of 1998, the group published a document identifying actions to fight the root causes of poverty and underdevelopment. The document noted that the main assurance that these actions would be implemented was the capacity of Bolivian society to take responsibility for carrying them out (an idea that became a principal objective of the second National Dialogue in 2000). The Second National Dialogue was launched in April of 2000 to promote a participatory approach in the preparation of Bolivia s PRSP. In the months preceding the dialogue, various civil society groups mobilized on their own to prepare their own dialogues. This included the catholic church-sponsored jubilee 2000 forum of NGOs and included groups representing small producers, indigenous people and miners. The Second National Dialogue was designed as a bottom-up process with discussions taking place first at the municipal level, and then moving to the regional and national levels. 3 Four topics were discussed at the municipal roundtables: determinants of poverty, mechanisms for the allocation of HIPC debt relief resources, citizens 3. A total of 1,215 people from 314 municipalities participated in the municipal roundtables, while there were 935 people in the departmental roundtables and 273 people in the national roundtable. 130

participation in monitoring the use of HIPC resources, and carrying out a follow-up of the national dialogue. The nine departmental roundtables included delegates from each of the municipal roundtables, as well as representatives from the government, civil society and the Jubilee 2000 forum of NGOs. But high-level government participation in these departmental roundtables was limited, with government officials present at only three of the nine roundtables. The meetings focused on priority actions at the regional level in the fight against poverty, as well as citizens participation in the monitoring of resources for public investment, the content and institutional framework of public policies, and conducting a follow-up of the National Dialogue. In August of 2000, delegates from the municipal and departmental roundtables attended the national dialogue with the attendance of government ministers and vice-ministers as well as representatives of civil society. However, representation of political parties and the legislature was very low. Six sectoral topics were discussed: support to production, education, health, basic sanitation and housing, land, and the environment. Some structural issues were also discussed including tax policy, labor reform, trade policy, and the regulatory environment for businesses. Agreements were reached on several topics, including: (i) the determination of priority policy areas (such as productive infrastructure and support for production, education, health, and land tenure); (ii) the definition of a mechanism for the distribution of HIPC resources; and (iii) the need to establish social oversight mechanisms which would give civil society a role in monitoring the utilization of HIPC resources. The Government drafted the PRSP based on the results of the Second National Dialogue. The document was shared with the general public, followed by public discussions of the draft. As a result, the document was revised in several areas to include a more extensive analysis of indigenous, gender, and environmental issues. Plans were then made for an extensive follow-up to the PRSP through existing mechanisms of social oversight at the municipal level, and through newly created agencies of social oversight at the departmental and national levels. This entire review process was formalized in the new National Dialogue Law (Ley de Dialogo Nacional). But despite these efforts to bring the participatory process closer to people by decentralizing it, NGOs and civil society groups raised various concerns over whether: (i) some consultations were unduly influenced by local decision- makers; (ii) vulnerable groups were under-represented (specifically women and indigenous people); (iii) the highly structured methodology used failed to promote real participation; and (iv) the agenda of the discussions was not sufficiently flexible. Nevertheless, most observers agreed that the Government made a good faith effort at utilizing a participatory approach in developing its strategy and laid the groundwork for an on-going participatory process for monitoring its strategy. F. Coordination With regards to donor coordination and partnership, there have been important advances over the last years. The Consultative Group meetings, the introduction of the government s Nuevo Marco de Relacionamiento entre el Gobierno y la Cooperación Internacional, the CDF, and specificsector practices have all improved donor coordination. Over the past CAS period there have been important efforts aimed at increasing coordination among donors. An effective in-country forum for partner coordination was temporarily in place, and donor assistance programs were aligned with the country National Action Plan. The system of donor coordination functioned in such a way that one aid agency had to be elected to represent the donor community and to work with a 131

representative of the Government in each one of the four pillars. Government participation in donor-government Consultative Group meetings increased, and steps have been taken in moving away from traditional donor-driven and freestanding projects toward broader sector wide approaches that support national goals. The introduction of the CDF allowed the Bank to play an important role in the donor coordination effort. In supporting the implementation of country programs, the Bank worked closely with other donors. The extensive use of co-financing and technical assistance trust funds has strongly supported the CAS implementation. In FY03 TF disbursements of $20.5 million placed Bolivia as the biggest country user of trust funds in the Region. Similarly, there have been several good practices in co-financing and joint coordination of supervision. For instance, the Institutional Reform Program was jointly prepared between the Government and a group of donors, while there were joint supervision missions of the Education Reform Project. But despite these major advances, the assistance of the donor community is still disperse and fragmented, and efforts at rationalizing overlapping investments and harmonizing operational practices are still pending. 132

The share of imports transported by road increased from 66.7% in 1997 to 71% in 2001. While the share of exports transported by road decreased from 44% in 1997-98 to 32% in 2001 due oil pipe line, fluvial and railway increases. World Bank Group Self-Evaluation Indicators: The ending of Abopó-Camiri was postponed until June 2004. Contracts are currently under execution but physical progress reached 19.33%. A Supreme Decree that allow for the privatization and concession of natural gas distribution networks was approved by CONAPE. Liquid gas bottling plans have not been privatized.
