40、apacity Development Annual Report 2024|Monetary and Capital MarketsFISCAL YEAR 2024 AT A GLANCESECTION IADuring fiscal year 2024(FY24),the Monetary and Capital Markets(MCM)Department continued to assist the IMF membership build capacity in monetary and financial stability against an increasingly com
41、plex global backdrop.As the global economy grappled with inflationary pressures,new challenges in the financial sector,and rising debt vulnerabilities,MCM stepped up efforts to respond to the high demand for support from member countries.It did so by increasing the number of capacity development(CD)
42、activities and expanding the programmatic institution-building engagements,all delivered in a variety of modalities.Yet again,strong ownership from the authorities proved to be a key ingredient to successful CD outcomes.The MCM CD delivery in FY24 exceeded pre-COVID levels and totaled 1,037 activiti
43、es(Figure1),which fully reflected the“new normal”ofadapting delivery modalities(Figure2).1 About half of all CD engagements were delivered in person(52percent),while the rest were delivered either in virtual or hybrid format(37 and 11 percent,respectively).Progress with blended delivery of CD,which
44、combines real-time engagement(in person or virtual)with asynchronous CD delivery(self-paced online learning),has also advanced.While measuring accurately blended CD is work in progress,1 The FY24 activity count includes the following categories:direct delivery,management and administration,and analy
45、tics and development.In FY22,the IMF adopted a new administrative system for planning and tracking CD(Capacity Development Management and Administration Program(CDMAP).CDMAP introduced methodological changes to CD data that create a structural break in FY22.The comparison with pre-COVID delivery is
46、made relative to FY20(comprising May 2019April 2020),with pandemic-related travel restrictions after April 2020.COVID years include FY21 and FY22.demand for this approach to CD delivery keeps growing.As in previous years,MCMs CD covered a broad range of topics in FY24(Figure 3),spanning both core an
47、d emerging priority areas(Box 1).There was particularly strong demand for technical advice in central bank operations and debt management,while demand for new CD priority areas,including climate change and digital money also increased.Delivering CD to fragile and conflict-affected states(FCS)remaine
48、d high on the country priority list(Figure 4).MCM continued to further enhance its expertise in the growing number of topics,while remaining highly attuned to the views from the field,ensuring that our CD focus and modalities remained in sync with the needs of the membership.Africa remained our top
49、CD recipient,followed by Asia and the Pacific Islands region,Middle East and Central Asia,Western Hemisphere,and Europe(Figure 5).2|SECTION ICapacity Development Annual Report 2024|Monetary and Capital MarketsFIGURE 1.NUMBER OF MCM CD ACTIVITIESFY21FY22FY23FY24FY2083668980691910370200400600800100012
