Abstract:
This database was created as a global dataset presenting the use of Financial Management Information Systems in publishing Open Budget Data in 198 economies (using 20 key and 20 informative indicators). The dataset was released in September 2013, as a part of the FMIS and OBD Study (FMIS and Open Budget Data: Do Governments Report on Where the Money Goes?) and is updated annually to reflect the developments since then. The dataset is being used to monitor the effects of FMIS on publishing budget execution performance, identify potential improvements in budget transparency, and provide some guidance on the effective use of FMIS platforms to publish open budget data.
As a part of the stock taking exercise initiated by the Integrated Digital Solutions (IDS) Group, a new dataset was created as an inventory of all WBG investments including large ICT/e-Gov components for governance/sector reforms since 1995. This global dataset includes the details of ICT investments in six categories, together with the cost, duration, and outcome ratings of completed activities, in addition to key project data extracted from the operations portal. The dataset was released in June 2015 and will be updated annually (last update in August 2015). This dataset can be used by all GPs and external users, to identify relevant projects in DG domain, search the contents of project documents (PAD, ICR, IEG review) using a user-defined taxonomy, and expand/customize the resulting data sets for various needs (operational support, project design, research, monitoring and quality assurance, training, etc.). The latest version of the DG Database presents the details of 1,129 investment lending projects funded by the WBG in 135 countries in all regions since 1995.
This dataset was created as a part of the World Development Report (WDR) 2016 activities, to expand existing FMIS and Open Budget Data dataset by including the current status of Public Financial Management (PFM) systems and related online services, as well as the web links to relevant government web sites in 198 economies. Combined database is called “PFM Systems and e-Services” dataset and updated annually (in spreadsheet format; including metadata and statistics). The dataset includes 8 key indicators that is used to measure the status of transactional eServices in order to highlight good practices in the delivery of PFM related public services.
