GAVI's Advance Market Commitment (AMC) is a groundbreaking financing mechanism designed to ensure the availability of effective pneumococcal vaccines for developing countries. Donors pledge funds at predetermined prices, enabling manufacturers to invest in vaccine research and development. In return for upfront financing, manufacturers commit to supplying vaccines at reduced long-term prices, ensuring accessibility and affordability for beneficiary countries. This initiative aims to lower morbidity and mortality from pneumococcal diseases and accelerate the uptake of vital vaccines, delivering on public health goals.

How AMC works • Donors commit funds to finance the purchase of new vaccines at a pre-agreed price for a certain amount of doses • These financial commitments provide the guarantee that manufacturers need to invest in the necessary research and development of the new vaccine. • Manufacturers can participate in the AMC if and when they develop a vaccine that meets specific and stringent criteria and if the vaccine is requested by beneficiary countries • In exchange for the upfront donor funds, manufacturers legally commit to supply their vaccine at a lower price over the long-term. • The long-term price is paid by beneficiary countries and GAVI.
The Pneumococcal AMC pilot • Overarching goal: reduce morbidity and mortality from pneumococcal diseases. • Main objectives: • Bring forward the availability of effective pneumococcal vaccines - scale up of production capacity. • Accelerate development of second generation vaccines that meet developing country needs. • Accelerate vaccine uptake - predictable vaccine pricing for countries and manufacturers. • Test AMC concept

What does this mean for GAVI countries? Same • Countries express their preference on pneumococcal vaccines • GAVI co-financing and default policies will apply to the AMC without modifications • Vaccines are procured through UNICEF But different • Vaccines will be available in the right quantities to cover demand • Availability of support funding is known years in advance • The price of these vaccines for developing countries is known years before procurement starts
