Investment Committee

The Investment Committee's role is to ensure that DFID investments represent good value for money for UK taxpayers and that clear systems exist to take strategic financial decisions on the basis of evidence. It does this through looking at strategic investment decisions and resource allocation, at the balance of the investment portfolio in aggregate, and at the adequacy and implementation of investment appraisal systems. The scope of the Investment Committee covers all DFID programme investments whether multilateral, bilateral, or global public goods - it does not look at DFID's administration costs. Please see the Terms of Reference for more detail.
