The Development Effectiveness Review (DER) assesses development trends and progress within CDB's Borrowing Member Countries (BMCs), particularly those that are connected to the Bank's corporate priorities, as outlined in the 2015-2019 Strategic Plan. The report complements the Results Monitoring Framework (RMF), which is a four-level management tool used to track and monitor implementation progress of the Strategic Plan. The DER also measures the results that BMCs have achieved with CDB's support vis-à-vis -vis targets outlined in RMF and identifies areas in which the Bank can improve its performance.

This DER is the seventh annual review of CDB's corporate performance and results achieved by BMCs in line with the regional and global development goals.
