Under Work Order 12, the Development Credit Authority (DCA) requested that an evaluation be undertaken of the 2006 and 2010 DCA guarantees with Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB). As stated in the DCA Revised Evaluation Framework, “the purpose of USAID evaluation is to ensure accountability to stakeholders and to improve effectiveness in initiatives.” The four main objectives of carrying out evaluations encompass both accountability and learning purposes and are stated as: i) Communicate the development contributions to DCA stakeholders (OMB, Congress, USAID Missions) and external partners; ii) Contribute to the dialogue about how to engage financial sector institutions as partners in development efforts; iii) Learn from the intervention’s development efforts and to try to examine impact; iv) Strengthen USAID’s future application of DCA guarantees as a tool for achieving development results.
