Performance of SSNs Excluding Subsidies

This section assesses the performance of the Middle East and North Africa’s principal SSN programs other than subsidies and ration cards. In particular, these programs are evaluated on

• Coverage rates: the extent to which they reach the neediest beneficiaries;

• Targeting accuracy: the extent to which program resources are distributed efficiently; and

• Benefit generosity: the extent to which these transfers provide adequate income support.

All of these features combine into the most important indicators of poverty and inequality impact—observable effects on reducing poverty and decreasing inequality.
