Report on Countries That Are
Candidates for Millennium Challenge
Compact Eligibility for Fiscal Year 2016
and Countries That Would Be
Candidates But for Legal Prohibitions
Summary
This report to Congress is provided in
accordance with section 608(a) of the
Millennium Challenge Act of 2003, as
amended, 22 U.S.C. 7701, 7707(a) (the
Act).
The Act authorizes the provision of
assistance for global development
through the Millennium Challenge
Corporation (MCC) for countries that
enter into a Millennium Challenge
Compact with the United States to
support policies and programs that
advance the progress of such countries
to achieve lasting economic growth and
poverty reduction. The Act requires
MCC to take a number of steps in
selecting countries with which MCC
will seek to enter into a compact,
including determining the countries that
will be eligible countries for fiscal year
(FY) 2016 based on (a) a country’s
demonstrated commitment to (i) just
and democratic governance, (ii)
economic freedom, and (iii) investments
in its people; and (b) the opportunity to
reduce poverty and generate economic
growth in the country, and (c) the
availability of funds to MCC. These
steps include the submission of reports
to the congressional committees
specified in the Act and the publication
of notices in the Federal Register that
identify:
The countries that are ‘‘candidate
countries’’ for FY 2016 based on their
per capita income levels and their
eligibility to receive assistance under
U.S. law and countries that would be
candidate countries but for specified
legal prohibitions on assistance (section
608(a) of the Act);
The criteria and methodology that the
MCC Board of Directors (Board) will use
to measure and evaluate the relative
policy performance of the ‘‘candidate
countries’’ consistent with the
requirements of subsections (a) and (b)
of section 607 of the Act in order to
determine ‘‘eligible countries’’ from
among the ‘‘candidate countries’’
(section 608(b) of the Act); and
The list of countries determined by
the Board to be ‘‘eligible countries’’ for
FY 2016, identification of such
countries with which the Board will
seek to enter into compacts, and a
justification for such eligibility
