UK funding to multilateral institutions cannot be directly attributed to any country; the estimates above are imputed shares based on the UK's total funding for each institution, and that institution's distribution of official development assistance (ODA) and official aid each year.
ODA is defined as flows administered with the promotion of economic development and welfare of developing countries as their main objective, that are concessional in character and convey a grant element of at least 25 per cent. Aid to countries on Part 1 of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) list of aid recipients is eligible to be recorded as ODA. Official aid (OA) has the same concessional and qualitative features as ODA but covers aid to countries on Part 2 of the DAC list of recipients. (Note: From 2005 Part 2 of the DAC list of recipients ceased to exist and aid to countries on a new combined list of DAC list of recipients of official development assistance is eligible to be recorded as ODA).
The list of multilateral organisations used to produce this table is not exhaustive; only multilaterals who provide the DAC with detailed information about their distribution of funds, and to whom the UK provided funds, were analysed in the production of this table.
Negatives represent accounting adjustments, not a net flow to the UK; zero figures are indicated with a dash.
