Financial Management and Analysis of Projects

Foreword

Sound financial management arrangements help ensure that investment projects are successfully implemented and are operationally sustainable. This Handbook contains information and instructions for borrowers on the financial management of projects financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB).

This Handbook reflects ADB policies as set out in the Financial Management and Analysis of Projects (the Guidelines) as updated in 2005. It supersedes all previous handbooks on financial management and takes effect immediately.

To ensure that financial management arrangements for investment projects meet ADB requirements, borrowers and project executing agency staff should study this Handbook, particularly during project preparation.
