The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) Board of Directors held its quarterly meeting on Dec. 16, 2015. The Board approved three countries as eligible for compacts and two countries as eligible for threshold programs. Three of the five countries are new partners for MCC and all have worked hard to improve their performance on MCC?s scorecard, which measures countries? commitment to ruling justly, economic freedom, and investing in their people.
Nepal, Niger and the Philippines were reselected by the Board to continue developing their compacts. The Board reselects all countries in compact development as part of the annual selection process. The Board deferred a vote on the reselection of Tanzania and Lesotho for compact eligibility until relevant governance concerns in both countries have been addressed.
