The Development Finance Assessment (DFA) provides a systematic mapping of Zambia’s development finance, including the outlook up to 2030, while assessing the policy, institutional and legal environments for an Integrated National Financing Framework (INFF). By assessing the development financing landscape and reviewing the key frameworks, this DFA presents key observations and recommendations, which provide Zambia with an opportunity to improve policies, regulations and institutions wrongs of the past, and accelerate its attainment of Vision 2030. The DFA enables effective resource allocation, necessary to spur economic growth, manages risks, ensures accountability, and fulfils international commitments. Moreover, it empowers the government to make informed decisions, maximize project impact, and contribute to Zambia’s sustainable development.
