About the International Performance Budgeting Database

Welcome to the OECD International Database on Performance Budgeting (2016 OECD Performance Budgeting Survey results). The database provides users with a unique resource on performance budgeting, spending review, and evaluation in OECD countries. The database maps out key stakeholders involved in generating and using performance information in budget negotiations and describes some of the main challenges faced (e.g. poor quality data, unintended consequences or impact on performance measurement and management, etc.).

The information held in the database is made available free of charge. However, the data are protected by copyright and we request that you cite the OECD as the source (OECD International Database of Performance Budgeting).
