FISCAL 2016

OVER THE YEAR UNDER REVIEW, GIZ INCREASED ITS BUSINESS VOLUME IN ORDER TO GENERATE SUSTAINABLE RESULTS WORLDWIDE. THE BUSINESS VOLUME WAS EUR 2,402 MILLION (COMPARED WITH EUR 2,142 MILLION IN 2015).

About 94 per cent of our total business volume was generated by the public-benefit business area, with the remaining 6 per cent attributable to GIZ’s taxable business area, International Services. Through this business area, international institutions such as the European Union, the United Nations, governments worldwide, foundations and businesses with international operations commission GIZ directly.

BUSINESS VOLUME OF AROUND EUR 2.4 BILLION

COFINANCING

Under cofinancing arrangements, third parties such as the European Union, UN organisations or private companies provide additional funds to support a measure that GIZ is implementing on behalf of BMZ or another German public sector client. In terms of income generated in 2016, the largest cofinancing bodies were the European Union (EUR 189 million) and the United Kingdom’s DFID (EUR 32 million).

*All values shown without decimal places. Rounding differences therefore occur.

**Includes all German Public Sector Clients including federal ministries but also, for instance, the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Engagement Global.

***Includes financing bodies that use funds from the budget of a partner country, e.g. ministries of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Ethiopian Government.

****Includes all funding from a national budget unless the funds can be attributed to a partner country (in which case they are included under ‘national governments’). Examples of traditional bilateral donors are DFID, SDC, DGIS and AusAID.

*****The decline in the income from UN organisations is attributable to the fact that a large-volume project for the WHO was concluded in 2015.
