Core Budget Request for the Fiscal Year 2005-2006

The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) presents its Core Budget Request for the 2005-2006 fiscal year, proposing a total budget of $1,012,405. This represents a net increase of $74,086 over the previous year's expenses, driven primarily by rising personnel costs and inflation in Brazil.

• The IAI is requesting a total Core Budget of $1,012,405 for the 2005-2006 fiscal year, which is a net increase of $74,086 compared to the 2004-2005 forecast of $938,319.
• The primary driver for the budget increase is the 'Salaries & Benefits' category, which is requested at $694,505 (an increase of $92,622). This rise is attributed to a proposed 2 percent base salary increase for six international staff, the hiring of a Program Manager, and a temporary 13 percent "post adjustment" to compensate for a 12.4 percent inflation rate in Brazil and a weakening U.S. Dollar.
• To fund the budget increase, the IAI requests a 7.4 percent increase in Member Country Contributions for the 2005-2006 year, raising the total contribution level from $945,000 to $1,015,000.
• The IAI plans to reduce spending in other areas to offset personnel costs, including a $11,536 reduction in 'Other Costs' and a $7,000 reduction in 'Dissemination Activities', the latter of which involves reducing the annual publication of the Newsletter from four issues to three.
• The IAI's cash flow analysis for 2005-2006 predicts reserves of $402,595 as of June 30, 2006, assuming that 90 percent of committed contributions are collected and 100 percent of the budget is spent.
