The General Management Support (GMS) fee Set Up and Collection section of the POPP has been revised to reflect the changes to GMS rates and GMS distribution, with a new link to the revised GMS calculator. Under the new guidance, offices should note that only "earn-as-you-go" method of GMS computation should be entered when setting up projects in the Atlas grants module. OFRM is working with OIST to reflect the GMS changes in Atlas and a separate communication will be issued when the setup is completed |

Contributions from IFIs and Development Banks to UNDP rose by 44% in 2016 compared to the previous year. In addition to IFI direct contributions, it is important to record indirect contributions received via Government Cost Sharing (originating from loans to governments). As a result, an additional procedure to the Non-Core Contribution Policy was created to provide guidance on how to record contributions from IFIs and development banks, with a list of fund codes to be used for loans, and a list of donor codes to be used for grants. |
