Total revenue in 2022 amounted to USD 42.2 million, against total expenditure of  USD 42.9 million, resulting in a deficit of USD 0.7 million. On 31 December 2022, CIP reserves were USD 12.5 million (equal to 84 days of expenditure-within CGIAR norms), compared to USD 13.2 million (85 days) on 31 December 2021. The indirect cost ratio of the Center was 15.7% for 2022. The ratio is calculated in line with the CGIAR Cost Principles and Indirect Cost Guidelines (issued April 2019), and expresses the relationship between direct and indirect costs.

CIP’s financial indicators reflect the Center’s continued financial health, though no institution is immune to financial or operational risk. To mitigate risk, the Board’s Audit, Finance and Risk Committee (AFRC) oversees of CIP’s risk management policies and plans. In a much broader sense, the Board oversees Center operations in the interest of funders and stakeholders.

As a CGIAR research center, much of CIP’s research is conducted through CGIAR Research Programs. Funding for those programs, and for bilateral projects, comes from public and private organizations, governments and foundations across the globe. The Center also receives generous in-kind support from national partners and international collaborators.

CIP gratefully acknowledges the countries, organizations, partners and individuals that supported its agricultural research for development in 2019. CIP also thanks all the funders that globally support its work through their contributions to the CGIAR system. Without their intellectual and financial support, CIP could not have made the contributions to better lives reported here.
