Evidence to Support IFIs Sample Clauses

Evidence to Support IFIs. Despite their popularity over the past two decades, relatively few studies exist that evaluate the impact of IFIs, and specifically IFIs in global health. As previously mentioned, Atun et al.’s 2017 analysis offers the most up-to-date systematic view of IFIs’s ability to mobilize financial resources. However, per Atun et al., no systematic data exists to evaluate the impact of IFIs on health outcomes. Focusing on the financial impact, Atun et al. (2017) observed that IFIs were successful in raising attention and somewhat successful in raising funds. Across the ten IFIs, revenues typically peaked soon after an IFI’s introduction and then stabilized at lower levels. Revenues also remained in line with the business cycle, increasing during economic growth and decreasing during economic downturn in the late 2000s. The instruments also varied substantially in their revenue and disbursement amounts. IFM-backed IFIs had more consistent revenue generation, perhaps shepherded by the effective pooling and channeling of funds via the IFM structure. IFM- backed IFIs did not have to sustain all funding for The Global Fund, for example, but offered an alternate funding source to complement traditional donors. Conversely, other IFIs like exchange- traded funds failed to generate meaningful funds and were discontinued by 2015. While IFIs help introduce new funds for global health issues, the most dominant IFIs supported a narrow set of high-priority communicable disease and interventions including new and underused vaccines (42% of disbursement between 2002-15), HIV/AIDS (17.7%), malaria (16.9%), polio (8%), pneumococcal disease (8%), tuberculosis (5.5%), with the remaining 2% in cross-cutting programs. Looking ahead, it is important to consider how IFIs can support lower priority infectious diseases, noncommunicable diseases, or health system strengthening given the lack of IFI examples in these areas. Atun et al.’s review also helped highlight the potential risk in financially sustaining less successful instruments. Many IFIs may remain small with high start-up costs and relatively low realized revenues over time. Funding may also be volatile, and potential IFI implementers should be aware of these potential shortcomings of innovative financing. Therefore, there does not appear to be evidence yet guaranteeing an average or above average yield or sustainability from IFIs over traditional ODA or DAH mechanisms. A few evaluations for the AMFm and IFFIm have been conducted ...
