The missing component of the international financial structure is an effective aid measure to facilitate, encourage, and strengthen self-compliance with international standards and requirements. The aid agreement includes not only a financial source but also a more efficient way of delivering aid. These two factors are interlinked: there is currently too little financing for international aid as the results they bring are deemed inadequate. The United States is the most notorious country for foreign aid. Countries that spend a higher proportion of GNP on aid also achieve better results.
