The Guidance Note on GMS (Indirect Costs) for International Financial Institutions (IFIs) has been revised to reflect that the GMS cost recovery rate applied for IFIs is based on the configuration of parties that enter into financing agreements with UNDP (and not on the ‘form’ or agreement template used).
