Africa's development outcomes are determined not by the quality of its plans but by the quality of its execution systems. The ACIx will make that dimension visible, comparable, and actionable for the first time.
01
All 54 African Union member states assessed against the same execution capacity framework — enabling the first continent-wide comparison.
02
Built on the NCIx methodology piloted in Nigeria — extended and adapted for diverse African institutional contexts.
03
Specific analysis of how execution capacity affects the outcomes of development finance and aid interventions.
04
African governments will be invited to engage with and respond to their ACIx scores — fostering official reform dialogue.
05
Dedicated briefings for development finance institutions, private equity, and sovereign investors on ACIx findings.
06
Published each year with full methodology notes, source data, and country-level narratives for research and policy use.
