World Bank

The World Bank is made up of two development institutions, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). IBRD lends to middle-income countries, while IDA provides interest-free credits and grants to the poorest countries. Together, they aim to reduce poverty by providing financing to boost economic growth, reduce inequalities, and improve living conditions in developing nations. The World Bank raises funds through bond sales and contributions from richer member countries to finance projects that work towards achieving the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals.

How to raise fund?


IBRD raises most of its funds on the world's
financial markets and has become one of the most established borrowers since issuing its first bond in 1947. The income that IBRD has generated over the years has allowed it to fund development activities and to ensure its financial strength, which enables it to borrow at low cost and offer clients good borrowing terms.

IDA is funded largely by contributions from the


governments of its richer member countries. Additional funds come from IBRD's income and from borrowers' repayments of earlier IDA credits.
