Millennium Challenge Corporation Releases FY2027 Country Scorecards

WASHINGTON (Nov. 06, 2026) - Today the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) released its fiscal year (FY) 2027 country scorecards. MCC's scorecards are a key component in its competitive selection process that determines which countries are eligible to develop a five-year grant agreement known as a compact.

This year, MCC created scorecards for 104 countries of which 36 countries passed and 68 did not. The FY27 scorecards are publicly available on the agency's website.

Scorecards consist of a collection of 22 independent, third-party indicators that measure a country's policy performance in the areas of economic freedom, ruling justly, and investing in people, as directed by MCC's statute.

MCC's Board of Directors considers new partner countries traditionally in December based on scorecard performance, supplemental information, the opportunity to unlock economic growth, and the availability of funding.
