Any RAMP engagement begins with a “peer review”, which is a service provided free of charge to any member central bank or national asset manager interested in a strategic review of their organization’s existing capacity.   A small team of senior Treasury specialists would conduct an on-site review and develop analysis and recommendations for the client’s consideration.  If interested in more in-depth assistance, the client could then request to set up a RAMP advisory engagement. 

An advisory engagement can be structured either in tandem with an asset management mandate or on a straight fee-for-service basis.  As the World Bank is a member cooperative, fees are reinvested in building capacity and cover client costs for training as well as asset management.  As there are space limitations in the program due to the intensive consulting work, not all requests can be immediately met.
