Book excerpt: Ratings for the Santiago Project for Chile were as follows: outcomes were moderately satisfactory, the risk to development outcome was moderate, the Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and the Borrower performance was also moderately satisfactory. Some lessons learned included: lack of a holistic approach may result in emphasizing one concern over another, for example, focusing mainly on environmental and economic considerations may lead to a design with unnecessarily fewer and larger buses. However, fewer and larger buses reduce comfort and increase waiting times. Such a decrease in service quality is a disincentive for public transport use and will, at least in the long run, go against environmental and economic considerations. Hence, it is important that a design that includes user participation finds the right balance between environmental and economic considerations and service quality. Travel and network models are excellent tools to evaluate network designs, but over reliance on normative analytical tools that 'optimize' a network subject to a set of assumptions, especially in areas that assume behavioral changes, should be avoided. The modeling exercise also needs to include 'bottom up' inputs, such as information on the importance in terms of overall weight people give to transfers, waiting, and walking. The Santiago experience showed that it is not advisable to redesign the public transport network without considering the existing information on travel demand and destination available through the operators. Additionally, stakeholders' involvement in the network design process, especially the municipalities comprising the metropolitan area, operators and users, is essential, and the design concept for the network needs to be extensively modeled before implementation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ratings for the (MOPW) Project for Chile were as follows: outcomes were satisfactory, the risk to development outcome was moderate, the Bank performance was satisfactory, and the Borrower performance was also satisfactory. Some lessons learned included: the reform objectives were defined by the MOPW in close and extensive consultations with stakeholders internal and external to the MOPW. The World Bank has supported this participative approach and has encouraged the continuous monitoring and evaluation of the reform's analytical underpinnings. At the implementation stage, the MOPW leadership has strengthened the initiatives aimed at guaranteeing the continuous support of stakeholders. The change management component turned out to be critical to expand support for the reform. MOPW leadership also decided to increase training, capacity building, and technical support activities to facilitate the implementation of the reform. The project components, supported by the MOPW human resources department, have established ad-hoc committees, which serve as platforms for consulting with the MOPW unions. The Bank team highlighted during supervision missions the need to involve non-managerial personnel within the MOPW in Santiago and in the regions to increase understanding of the objectives pursued by the reform and to increase overall support. More stability of the Project Implementation Unit (PIU) coordinator office will enhance the synergies between the project components and leverage the policy dialogue with the Bank. This dialogue has been fruitful on climate change issues and can further be extended to other issues such as Public Private Partnerships (PPPs), renewable energy concessions, and energy efficiency. The stability of the PIU office will also improve the effectiveness of the change ma.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ratings for the Programmatic Loan for Sustainable and Equitable Growth : Housing Sector Reform Project for Brazil were as follows: outcomes were satisfactory, the risk to development outcome was low, Bank performance was satisfactory, and Borrower performance was also satisfactory. Some lessons learned included: government participation in the analytical preparation and formulation of the policy reform agenda is to ensuring long-term commitment. While some specific activities within the results framework did not evolve as planned, the Government has shown a clear commitment, through several large scale programs, to developing the housing sector based on the conceptual policy guidelines espoused in the Development Policy Loan (DPL). Linking housing construction to economic stimulus plans is an effective and politically palatable means of spurring housing construction for specific income groups as well as generating employment. The launch of the Minha Casa, Minha Vida stimulus package has gained broad support within Brazil and will catalyze housing programs identified in the National Housing Plan. The use of the trust deed in housing finance instead of the traditional mortgage has proven to function extremely well in a context like Brazil because it provides a stronger incentive to pay since title is only transferred when the loan is paid in full. Indeed, loans based on trust deed in Brazil have had a lower foreclosure rate than loans based on other forms of security like a mortgage lien. DPLs with reform agendas that require specific actions from the private sector, require the identification of tools to ensure an open dialogue between the public and private sectors during implementation.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ratings for the (HUTAL) Project for Mexico were as follows: outcomes were moderately unsatisfactory, the risk to development outcome was low or negligible, the Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and the Borrower performance was also moderately satisfactory. Some lessons learned included: the HUTAL experience suggests that technical assistance lending may actually set policy dialogue back by focusing Bank and client time on bureaucratic procedural issues and, in the case of HUTAL, by a de facto relinquishing of policy dialogue to other institutions like (IADB) which are supporting specific investment programs (HABITAT). Recently the Mexico country department has been engaging in sector policy dialogue through non-reimbursable technical assistance, grant funded Economic Sector Work (ESW), stepped-up fee-for service work, and memos-of understanding, in addition to preparation and supervision of Development Policy Loan (DPL). Time will tell how these instruments work to sustain productive policy dialogues. One tool the Bank could consider will be increased South-South or South-North exchanges to bring the Bank's global knowledge to bear in client countries. Traditionally Technical Assistance Lending (TAL) offers a means of supporting nascent and weak institutions and of preparing for investment operations. In a Middle Income Country (MIC), however, the costs of setting up and operating public institutions are covered by existing government revenue.
