This is a method of support whereby direct contributions of development assistance funds are injected into the budgets of recipient countries by donor countries and agencies. Through the use of these funds under the management of the government of the recipient country, many benefits can be expected: ownership is improved; the fiscal management capabilities of recipient countries, including aid funds management, are enhanced; resources are allocated effectively; and administrative work is reduced. On the other hand, there are restrictions on the implementation of budget support: the budget management system of the recipient country may be inadequate, the donor country would be accountable to its citizens for the results of aid, and the visibility of aid would be difficult to promote.
