Funds Allocated refers to the monetary resources that have been officially designated or budgeted for specific purposes, programs, or countries. These are essentially commitments made to provide financial support, but they represent planned expenditures rather than actual transfers of money. Allocated funds indicate the maximum amount available for spending during a particular time period, reflecting financial intentions and priorities.

Funds Disbursed represents the actual money that has been paid out or spent from the allocated amount. This is the real financial flow that reaches the intended recipients or projects. Disbursement occurs when funds move from the allocating entity to the beneficiary country or program. The disbursed amount often differs from the allocated amount due to various factors, including implementation delays, capacity constraints, changing priorities, or administrative issues.
