Abstract (Translated):
Following the Paris Summit for a Global Financial Pact and the United Nations resolution on the adoption of a Multidimensional Vulnerability Index (MVI), multilateral development banks (MDBs) have been called upon to integrate structural vulnerability into the allocation of their concessional resources. Assessing their commitment and accountability cannot be limited to examining the tools and allocation rules they have adopted; it is also necessary to analyse ex post the extent to which financial flows have actually been directed according to the structural vulnerability of recipient countries.
