Norad’s Governance and Public Finance Portfolio was established in 2022. The overall goal of the portfolio is improved revenue and governance of public finance in developing countries while at the same time enabling the increased fiscal space to be used for national development plans in support of the SDGs. 

The Portfolio Review 2024  builds on the findings of the portfolio review 2023, and serves as a compilation of achievements, progress, and steps toward impact, as reported by partners to Norad in 2024. The review is organized according to the outcome areas outlined in the Portfolio's Theory of Change. It focuses on results achieved through grants, as documented in partner annual reports, alongside selected activities undertaken by the portfolio team throughout the year.  

These activities have played a key role in amplifying results when it comes to global standards for improved financial integrity and advancing efforts in taxation, anti-corruption, national statistical systems, and public finance management at both the country level and in global norm-setting initiatives.
