Recommendation 18
18
FCDO lacks current review of its significant multilateral aid spending since 2016.
Conclusion
We recognise that multilateral organisations can offer good VfM in many circumstances. However, it is concerning that the FCDO has not commissioned a review of its multilateral aid spend since 2016, despite £2.8 billion of core ODA funding being spent through multilaterals in 2024. (Conclusion, Paragraph 58)
