 * Keep Though it may need serious revising. Google book search turns up copious references to this UN-based agency. Unfortunately, the article has been edited largely by COI accounts with a reliance on primary sources. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 02:23, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * It not a UN based agency. I will look at the references.   scope_creep Talk  09:40, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
 * If the mentions turn out to be passing and lack in-depth coverage, I'll withdraw the 'keep.' Late tonight. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 12:25, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Wait and improve it I'm not an expert on this, but from what I read about the requirements for something to be an article, it needs "significant coverage" from sources that aren't connected to the topic. The ones I see that aren't connected seem like trivial mentions. SilverhairedHarry (talk) 17:51, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete- It is NOT a UN agency. Its own website even states it is "based at the United Nations" (being based there and being an agency of are two different things). Stating it is a UN-based agency is misleading in my opinion. The page states (unreferenced) that the United Nations Capital Development Fund serves as the secretariat, but I cannot locate any references supporting that claim either. I do find a few mentions in books, but nothing that meets WP:CORPDEPTH. I would vote for a redirect target since we can verify it exists. Of course, I would need a suggested target from others as I cannot find one. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:46, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * This source claims the UNCDF established the Better Than Cash Alliance, and devotes a few pages to it in chapter 5. Page 109 here is a source for the UNCDF providing the secretariat and offices. Its aims are referred to here , often skeptically. Its findings are cited throughout this publication , and on pages 279-80 here . Also noted here  and page 135 here . These are just a few published sources from the first two Google search pages. There appear to be many more. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 04:30, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete I’m not seeing much evidence of notability. It is currently a COI mess. It can be recreated if decent sources are found. Thriley (talk) 17:46, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
