The Annual Development Effectiveness Review (ADER) is a key benchmark for assessing the African Development Bank Group’s (the Bank) progress in advancing Africa’s development priorities and improving the lives of its people.
This year’s edition coincides with the rollout of the Results Management Framework (RMF) 2024–2033, which supports the Bank’s new Ten-Year Strategy (2024–2033),
endorsed by the Bank’s Board of Directors in December 2024. The new RMF marks a major advancement in how the Bank measures and delivers impact. It is fully aligned with the Ten-Year Strategy (2024–2033), ensuring synchronised strategic objectives, implementation timelines, and a mid-term assessment. More than a monitoring tool, the RMF enables Bank staff and leadership to critically assess performance, identify underlying challenges and shortcomings, enhance operational learning and inform decision making for greater impact.
