UNCDF - 2008
United Nations Capital Development Fund
Web: www.uncdf.org/nepal

 Established in 1966 by the United Nations General Assembly as a special purpose organization primarily for small-scale investment in the poorest countries, UNCDF has come in recent years through intense and far-reaching changes. As a result, today, UNCDF works to help reduce poverty by piloting small-scale investments in two areas of concentration: local governance and microfinance. While the UNCDF investment portfolio is concentrated on a selected number of Least Developed Countries1, its technical advisory services can be accessed universally on a cost recovery basis. UNCDF is a member of the UNDP Group, is represented at the country level by the UNDP Resident Representative and reports to the UNDP/UNFPA Executive Board. UNCDF’s capacities in microfinance were strengthened in 1999 by the UNDP Administrator’s decision to locate the Special Unit for Microfinance (SUM) within UNCDF. Prior to September 1999, SUM was a joint partnership between the Bureau for Development Policy (BDP) in UNDP and UNCDF. SUM continues to support UNDP’s microfinance portfolio, including those countries outside of UNCDF’s geographic focus. In December 2001, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between UNCDF and UNDP’s Bureau for Development Policy, spelling out the advisory support services that UNCDF provides to UNDP country offices and programme countries worldwide.
