Yemen - Country Assistance Strategy
Wagner, Mark C.
This Country Assistance Strategy for Yemen proposes that the World Bank should help the government to make progress on four pillars: increasing non-oil growth; improving human development outcomes; improving fiscal sustainability; and addressing the resource sustainability crisis. The CAS also includes, under each pillar, upfront actions to improve economic governance which need to be implemented immediately even though the outcomes may only be visible in the medium-term. Based on Yemen's IDA allocation, the World Bank will contribute - to Yemen's development process - a financial amount of around US$400 million in IDA credits over the four year CAS period. Given the enormous development needs of Yemen, IDA disbursements will remain modest and annually contribute less than 7.5 percent of development expenditures.
