However, there is some evidence that aid has had positive effects when the policy environment has been conducive to growth. Regarding the relationship between aid and the main channels through which its impact on growth could flow-investment and domestic saving-the evidence is mixed, with some indication that aid has had a positive impact where adjustment efforts have been sustained.
