Executive Training on
Assessment, costing, and beyond
Bangkok, 15 – 19 Oct 2012
Costing scenarios with
The Rapid Assessment Protocol
(RAP)
Background
• ILO/FACTS Financial, Actuarial, and Statistical Branch
- actuarial valuations of social security schemes
- in-house actuarial expertise and model development
• ILO Social Budget Model (1990’s)
- Comprehensive modeling of social expenditure
- Comprises separate modules for projecting population, labour force, economy,
Government revenues/expenditure, and Social Protection schemes
- Tedious to complete, requiring experienced user
- Comprehensive data required
• The Rapid Assessment Protocol (RAP)
- Built on the concept of the Social Budget Model
- Compact and flexible format (1 Excel file)
- Allows for ‘rapid’ costing of SPF benefit scenarios

Cambodia – Costing of policy options
• Results indicative and preliminary
- Exercise meant to illustrate array of policy options
- Aims to facilitate policy dialogue
- Scenarios can be refined later as required
• Results of costing show affordability increasing over time
- Relative cost of all policy options decreasing
• Main assumptions underpinning projections:
- High GDP growth rate (assumption)
- Rapid decline in poverty headcount rates (assumption)
