Grant Description

Technical Assistance Programs provide long-term, resident advisors or short-term, intermittent advisors.

Financial Enforcement Program advisors support government officials in the development of legal foundations, policies, and anti-corruption entities to: combat money laundering, terrorist financing and other financial crimes; confront organized crime and corruption; reorganize law enforcement and financial entities in developing economies to help them prevent, detect, investigate, and prosecute complex international financial crimes.

Budget Policy and Management Program advisors support finance ministries in an effort to transform their resource allocation processes into modern budget processes that are a government's principal means of formulating and implementing government policy.

Assistance is dedicated to strengthening the effectiveness of a ministry of finance and the credibility of budget decisions.
