Innovative Sources for Development Finance: Over-Arching Issues

Anthony Atkinson

No DP2003-88, WIDER Working Paper Series from World Institute for Development Economic Research (UNU-WIDER)

Abstract: In analysing proposals for new sources of development funding, there are several issues that arise across the board. What is the role of new sources in relation to existing overseas development assistance? Should we be seeking new sources that generate a double dividend? Can the key elements of a proposal be achieved by another route? What should be the fiscal architecture? Is there a modern transfer problem? It is with these general concerns that the present paper deals.
