This review is in response to GPE Board’s request to the Finance and Risk Committee in September 2020 to make an objective assessment on the evidence of Multiplier’s success to date. It focuses on three key areas:

• Multiplier’s financial additionality (whether it mobilized more funding or mobilized funding more quickly)
• Multiplier’s policy additionality (its development impact on the projects supported by the funds mobilized)
• Multiplier process (guidelines, requirements, and transaction costs).

The review also looks at the Multiplier process to understand the transaction costs or the time taken to complete various stages of the Multiplier application process, and the experience with guidelines and requirements to access the Multiplier grant.
