Social Protection Financing

Strong public financial management systems are the backbone of inclusive state institutions. They enable better delivery of social protection services, promote long-term poverty reduction, and drive inclusive economic growth.

We have extensive experience across all areas of the budget cycle applied to social protection, including macro-fiscal analysis, planning, budgeting, public investment management, expenditure tracking studies, sub-national governance, and program evaluations.

We support governments and development partners with:

• Public Financial Management: We conduct public finance and revenue work, including macroeconomics, fiscal forecasting, social sector expenditure reviews, and fiscal space analysis. We also provide long-term advisory support to support public financial management reforms.
• Costing: We produce evidence-based costing exercises to determine the resources required for sustainable social protection programs and to support policy reform. This helps policymakers prioritise different measures based on affordability, value for money and impact.
• Innovative financing for social protection: We help identify new and innovative sources of funding available to finance sustainable social protection policies and programmes, including through climate finance and private finance.
