The purpose of this edition of the Annual Debt and Aid report is to provide useful data to stakeholders both in Government and in the donor community on the volume, distribution and predictability of disbursements made this year by development partners, and to provide the latest information on the Government of Malawi’s debt portfolio. It is a follow up to the Annual Debt and Aid report for 2005/06, published in October 2006, covering the period July 2006 – June 2007, the Government of Malawi’s 2006/07 Financial Year. In addition to reporting on the volume and distribution of Aid, the report also provides information on Aid dependency, and some basic indicators of progress against the Paris Declaration.

This Debt and Aid report provides information on the developments in the Aid and Public Debt portfolios in Malawi in the period July-December 2007. It is the latest publication in the series of Debt and Aid Reports which the Debt and Aid Management Division (DAD) began producing in October 2006. This report is shorter than the Annual Reports, with a tighter focus on reporting the disbursements of Aid and changes in the external and domestic debt portfolios in the first half of the 2007/08 financial year.
