Abstract
Policy-based financing (PBF) is one of the governmental policy measures used for socioeconomic development in many countries, as well as regulations, taxation, budgetary appropriations, and subsidies. PBF has been used in Japan, and Japan has financially and technically supported PBF programs in Asia and other countries through Official Development Assistance (ODA). The purpose of this chapter is to review the past experiences of PBF in Japan, Asia, and other countries and to show the new directions needed to contribute to the Post-2015 Development Agenda, which will have to be achieved in market-friendly circumstances.
