This Country Partnership Framework (CPF) sets out the World Bank Group (WBG) program for Albania for the period FY15-19, aimed at supporting Albania's aspiration to achieve equitable growth and integration into the European Union.
... Exibir mais + Albania emerged from the collapse of isolationist communism in the early 1990s as one of the poorest countries in Europe. The country then experienced rapid growth of nearly 6 percent per annum, rising into the ranks of middle income countries by 2008. The global and Eurozone crises in 2008 brought Albania's growth to a near stand-still by 2012, and the country is struggling to recover, particularly given its historic ties to Europe's poorer performing economies. The CPF reflects selectivity based on the fundamental priorities of the System Country Diagnostic (SCD) that allows for ramping up support from the World Bank Group. The CPF selectively chooses only five of the twelve SCD priorities, and builds a program of support around this subset of priorities on the basis of additional selectivity filters. These five fundamental priorities include: 1) restoring fiscal sustainability and maintaining financial stability; 2) establishing a high quality business environment; 3) providing clean, efficient, equitable and financially sustainable energy; 4) formalizing and enhancing inclusiveness and sustainability of land markets; and 5) enhancing governance, transparency and accountability of government.

This review summarizes the implementation of the FY2011-14 Albania country partnership strategy (CPS) and the CPS progress report (CPS PR) of FY2013 and evaluates the CPS completion and learning review (CLR).
... Exibir mais + The strategy was joint between International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and International Development Association (IDA) and International Finance Corporation (IFC) and this review covers the program of both agencies. The strategy was prepared in the wake of the 2008-09 global financial and economic crisis, which changed Albania’s trajectory from one of rapid growth and poverty reduction to one of significantly slower growth and growing macro imbalances related to government’s expansive fiscal stance (adopted in part to cushion the impact of the crisis on the poor). In this context the CPS sought to strengthen Albania’s capacity to return to its pre-crisis high growth trajectory while ensuring adequate protection, including from climate change risks, for vulnerable population groups, and maintaining past gains in human capital development. The CPS is comprised of three pillars: (i) accelerating the recovery in Albania’s economic growth through improved competitiveness; (ii) broadening and sustaining Albania’s social gains; and (iii) reducing Albania’s vulnerabilities to climate change.
