Past Events

Capital budgeting was one of the top priority topics recently identified by the BCOP member countries. This workshop is organized to start BCOP’s examination of this important topic. 

BCOP members got familiarized with the World Bank’s perspectives on core challenges and opportunities in the capital budgeting phase of public investment management, as well as the European Commission's approach to capital budgeting presented by the Directorate General for Economic and Financial Affairs of the European Commission (DG ECFIN). 

Additionally, three PEMPAL country cases were examined. BCOP members from Georgia, Ukraine, and Bulgaria presented their current and/or planned improvements in capital budgeting and the associated challenges.

The workshop also included a round table discussion in which the participants discussed and engaged in mutual learning and problem-solving and planned the next steps of the potential further BCOP work on capital budgeting.
