Public investment management
The public investment management system should be enhanced.
The availability of resources and of
identified investment opportunities will bring weak results if the system to prepare, implement and manage
investments is not improved. This is not merely an issue of employing more staff to work on projects and
calls for project proposals under EU Funds. It rather concerns the country’s capacity to manage the invest-
ment system as a whole, nationally and locally. Some such issues can be tackled through public admin-
istration reforms, others will require developing the appropriate human resources needed for investment
management. Advanced analytical and planning skills at various levels, from strategic to project level,
project preparation skills including enhanced public procurement procedures, high-level project manage-
ment skills and strong monitoring and evaluation capacities are some of the priorities in this area. Much of
this will require specific external and on-the-job training, but also mentoring by senior staff, and learning
from relevant experiences in other countries. Of relevance to this, and especially for planning, monitoring
and evaluation, will be the continued strengthening of the national statistical system.
The following sections outline the critical areas for policy interventions and required actions corresponding
