3.2 DISBURSEMENTS BY TERMS OF ASSISTANCE

AND DONOR CATEGORY

36. Over the 1992-2001 period, grants have constituted 82.2 percent of total ODA disbursements. In more recent years, however, the proportion of loans in total ODA disbursements has increased. In the years 2000 and 2001, loans components of the ODA constituted 21.0 and 28.2 percent of total ODA disbursements, respectively. The increase in the loans portion is essentially attributable to increased participation of the International Financial Institutions (IFIs) in the financing of Cambodia’s development programs. In 2001, the multi-lateral IFIs accounted for over 95 percent of the ODA disbursed as “loans”. These loans from IFIs accounted for 26.9 percent of total ODA disbursements in 2001. Among the multi-lateral donors, all of the assistance provided by UN System agencies (except the International Fund for Agricultural Development – IFAD) and the European Union/EEC was as grants. It constituted 18.3 percent of the grants component of the ODA disbursements and 13.5 percent of the total ODA disbursements (grants and loans) in 2001.

37. In 2001, over 97 percent of development assistance provided by bi-lateral partners consisted of grants and constituted more than two-thirds of total grant assistance disbursed in 2001. Since 1992, the grants components of the ODA provided by bi-lateral donors, around US $ 2.36 billion represented over 98 percent of their total ODA disbursements (US$ 2.4 billion).

38. All of the assistance provided by NGOs is as grants. Over the entire 1992-2001 period, their contributions have accounted for 8.2 percent of all ODA received by Cambodia. In 2001, NGOs contributions amounted to 9.2 percent of total disbursements.
