Following TC Harold, PCRIC took 32 days to make a payout,due to Covid-19 related delays from the calculation agent and, more importantly, processing delays by the banks used by PCRIC to process the Comments: payment. Given that all other payments were made within 30 days and that the delay of the payout following TC Harold is minor and explained in part by the impact of Covid-19 on a key stakeholder, this indicator is still considered to be a "yes" The claims paying capacity of the PCRIC is enough to sustain a 1-in-200 year insured loss IN00918598 ►The claims paying capacity of the PCRIC is enough to sustain a 1-in-200 year insured loss (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value No Yes Yes Yes Date 14-Feb-2017 22-Jun-2020 11-Dec-2020 30-Jun-2021 Intermediate Results Indicators by Components Establishment and Operations of PCRIC and PCRIF IN00918599 ►PCRC Operationalized (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value No Yes Yes Yes Date 14-Feb-2017 22-Jun-2020 11-Dec-2020 30-Jun-2021 Capitalization of PCRIC IN00918600 ►PCRIC Capitalization (Amount(USD), Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 18,100,000.00 18,100,000.00 20,100,000.00 Date 14-Feb-2017 22-Jun-2020 11-Dec-2020 30-Jun-2021 Development of Disaster Risk Insurance Products IN00918602 ►Number of Insurance Products Developed (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 2.00 1/7/2021 Page 3 of 5 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report PCRAFI : Furthering Disaster Risk Finance in the Pacific (P161533) Date 14-Feb-2017 22-Jun-2020 11-Dec-2020 30-Jun-2021 Monitoring and Evaluation IN00918601 ►Monitoring and Evaluation (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value No No Yes Yes Date 14-Feb-2017 22-Jun-2020 11-Dec-2020 30-Jun-2021 Performance-Based Conditions Data on Financial Performance Disbursements (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Currency Original Revised Cancelled Disbursed Undisbursed % Disbursed P161533 TF-A4171 Effective USD 25.33 25.33 0.00 19.89 5.44 79% Key Dates (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Approval Date Signing Date Effectiveness Date Orig.
