Note: — = not available. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding. As of fiscal 2017, new sector and theme categories have
replaced the previous taxonomy as part of an internal data modernization effort. Past fiscal year data reported here have been revised to reflect
the new categories and therefore may not match figures published in previous annual reports.
Because lending commitments for individual operations can be applied to multiple theme categories, figures organized by theme do not add up
to fiscal year commitment totals, and therefore theme figures should not be summed.
Please visit projects.worldbank.org/sector and projects.worldbank.org/theme for more information on changes.

Note: The table shows the three countries with the largest lending commitments in the region over the past two fiscal years (2017 and 2018). IBRD and IDA commitments do not include
Heavily Indebted Poor Country (HIPC) Initiative grants. Effective fiscal 2005, IBRD and IDA commitments include guarantees and guarantee facilities. Commitments to regional projects are
classified in this table as regional projects and are not counted as commitments of the individual countries involved in the regional project. However, undisbursed balances, gross
disbursements, repayments, net disbursements, interest and charges, and net transfers are reported or classified under the individual countries because the individual amounts are covered
by separate loan, credit, grant, or guarantee agreements and are guaranteed by the individual countries. Disbursements are made to the individual countries, and principal, interest, and
charges are billed to the individual countries. Repayments are made by the individual countries and also include payments from donors under debt service trust funds or debt relief under
HIPC and the Multilateral Debt Relief Initiative (MDRI). Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding.

Note: Effective fiscal 2005, lending includes guarantees and guarantee facilities. Joint IBRD-IDA operations are counted only once, as
IBRD operations. When more than one loan is made for a single project, the operation is counted only once. Commitments in regional
projects are classified in this table as regional projects and are not counted as commitments of the individual countries involved under
the regional project. IDA figures exclude the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) grants of $45.5 million to Côte d'Ivoire in fiscal
2009 and a Pandemic Emergency Financing (PEF) grant of $50 million in 2017.
A blank space indicates zero. Project counts for countries are not included in this table, as approved operations may be reclassified as
supplemental or additional financing operations during the life of the project. Consequently, total project counts may fluctuate from year
to year. The commitment totals to countries, however, remain constant regardless of the project's classification.

of an internal data modernization effort. Past fiscal year data reported here have been revised to reflect
the new categories and therefore may not match figures published in previous annual reports. Due to
methodological changes in fiscal 2017, past year's theme data is not comparable and cannot be
combined; it is therefore excluded here. Please visit projects.worldbank.org/sector and

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
JOINT MINISTERIAL COMMITTEE
OF THE
BOARDS OF GOVERNORS OF THE BANK AND THE FUND
ON THE
TRANSFER OF REAL RESOURCES TO DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
1818 H Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20433 Telephone: (202) 458-2980; Fax:(202) 522 2804
Washington, DC October 14, 2017
1. The Development Committee met today, October 14, in Washington, D.C.
2. Global growth has improved over the past year with a recovery in investment, trade and commodity prices as well as
supportive global financial conditions. Still, risks to the global outlook remain skewed to the downside, and prospects
for growth vary widely across countries. While there has been encouraging progress in poverty reduction globally;
high rates of inequality persist within and among countries, and stubborn pockets of poverty remain. Complex,
interlinked challenges also risk rolling back the important gains of recent decades in an increasingly interconnected
global economy.
3. The urgency and scale of today’s risks to development require national and global coordinated action to achieve
robust, sustainable, and inclusive development outcomes. The WBG is an effective and accountable leader in the
global development arena, and we acknowledge its strong track record of supporting countries’ long-term
development ambitions. With its capable staff, it is well-positioned to catalyze and deploy public and private finance
to serve all clients using a range of financial, risk, advisory and knowledge products. It also has the capacity to
convene partners at the global, regional, and national levels. These factors make it a unique institution within the
development community.
4. Recent human losses and economic shocks caused by natural disasters, famine, conflict, and displacement
demonstrate that hard-earned economic and social gains can easily be lost. The need for fiscal adjustment also poses
challenges in many economies, especially in highly indebted countries. We call on the WBG and the International
Monetary Fund (IMF) to remain alert to the risk of debt distress amid the cyclical and structural headwinds that
confront many developing economies, including through enhanced support for private investment in Africa. Their
continued assistance is critical to countries’ efforts to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth, enhance human
capital, and strengthen resilience.
5. To promote sustainable and inclusive growth, we urge enhanced coordination and partnership across multilateral
development banks (MDBs) and other international financial institutions (IFIs) to help leverage the financing required
to create jobs and build healthy economies. We are encouraged by WBG efforts to maximize finance for
development, including through the Cascade approach, which is intended to ensure that public and private
investments are complementary. We ask the WBG to help countries maximize their development resources by
drawing appropriately on private sector solutions to achieve the WBG’s twin goals and the Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs).
6. To enhance human capital, we encourage systematic approaches to health, nutrition, education, and social protection
that create the foundations for long-term development. In particular, we welcome the World Development Report,
Learning to Realize Education’s Promise. Improving learning outcomes for all is an important practical strategy for
eliminating poverty and achieving shared prosperity. It is also a moral imperative. When children attend school
without learning even the most basic life skills, it is not just a wasted opportunity; it is also a grave injustice. We urge
the WBG to work with clients to adapt and design policies which over time can help them bolster learning and
prepare their citizens for technological changes that will transform labor markets.
7. Closing gender gaps for women in access to property, finance and decent work is critical for achieving the SDGs. We
are encouraged by the WBG’s creation of the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative, which is expected to leverage
more than US$1 billion to help unlock the potential of women entrepreneurs. We also welcome the creation of a
Gender Diversity Working Group at the Board of Executive Directors and request an update on its progress by the
Spring Meetings in 2018.
8. To strengthen resilience, we urge continued investment in policies and programs that enable economic diversification
and minimize the negative impact of acute and long-term challenges to development. Macroeconomic shocks arising
from such crises as conflict, pandemics, natural disasters, and extreme weather events can displace communities and
create high costs in terms of lost lives, livelihoods, infrastructure and social cohesion. Moreover, cyclical shocks
place pressure on vulnerable financial systems. We call on the WBG and IMF to continue to work with countries to
strengthen domestic resource mobilization, reduce illicit financial flows, create instruments for crisis and disaster
prevention and preparedness, and ensure economic and social resilience when crises and disasters occur.
9. We highlight the need for action to address challenges – climate change, migration and forced displacement, global
health, as well as fragility, conflict and violence (FCV) – that threaten all countries. We applaud platforms such as
the Caribbean Catastrophe Risk Insurance Facility, the Global Concessional Financing Facility and the Pandemic
Emergency Financing Facility as examples of WBG leadership in helping countries apply solutions at national,
regional, and global levels. We note the ambition set out in the WBG Climate Change Action Plan. We recognize
that small states are disproportionately affected by disaster risks and note the continued importance of facilitating
their access to finance.
10. We welcome the start of IDA18, its record replenishment of US$75 billion, its new financial model and Triple A
rating, and its focus on jobs and economic transformation, gender, climate change, governance and FCV. We look
forward to successful implementation, including the contribution that increases in funding and staff will make in
countries affected by FCV. We especially commend the renewed focus on facilitating private sector investment to
boost growth for the poorest and most vulnerable. In this regard, we recognize the importance of IDA18’s IFC-MIGA
Private Sector Window to mobilize private investment and create markets in the most challenging environments.
11. We are encouraged by the Forward Look implementation update and recognize the importance of the WBG serving
all client segments, noting that resources should be strategically deployed to meet global and client needs and targeted
to areas of the world that most need funding and have least access to capital, with a tailored value proposition to the
full range of clients. We support the initiatives that seek to optimize operational and administrative simplification
without compromising the quality of WBG operational and analytical support. We expect the WBG to continuously
strive for improvement through initiatives such as the Environment and Social Framework implementation, the Agile
program as well as the Compensation Review. Increasing efficiency and effectiveness are also critical to support the
institution’s goals of reducing poverty and boosting shared prosperity in a sustainable manner. We look forward to a
further update at the Spring Meetings 2018, including targets for measuring progress.
12. We welcome the progress report to Governors on the Shareholding Review. We endorse the continuing work that
provides for further consideration of options and call on the Board to bring these discussions to a successful
conclusion by Spring Meetings 2018.
13. We recall the high ambition set out in the Forward Look and recognize the expectations placed on the WBG. We ask
the Board and Management to review all possible options to enhance the WBG’s financial capacity and develop a
package of measures, including internal levers and general and selective capital increases, for Governors’
consideration, with the aim of reaching a decision at the 2018 Spring Meetings.
14. The next meeting of the Development Committee is scheduled for April 21, 2018.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
JOINT MINISTERIAL COMMITTEE
OF THE
BOARDS OF GOVERNORS OF THE BANK AND THE FUND
ON THE
TRANSFER OF REAL RESOURCES TO DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
1818 H Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20433 Telephone: (202) 458-0388
Washington, DC April 21, 2018
1. The Development Committee met today, April 21, in Washington, D.C.
2. We welcome the fundamental reforms that have been negotiated as part of the proposed capital package and that will
allow the World Bank Group (WBG) to more effectively deliver development results in a financially sustainable
manner. We recognize that the WBG has set out an ambitious strategy to support achievement of the 2030
development agenda, and that it is committed to implementing the necessary operational changes and effectiveness
reforms to successfully deliver on the vision of the Forward Look. We also recognize that the WBG must strengthen
its financial capacity to meet the aspirations of its shareholders, mobilize capital at scale, and respond to global
development challenges.
3. We welcome the Forward Look Implementation Update report, including the metrics put forth for measuring progress
and the continued efforts toward becoming a better and stronger Bank. We recognize the importance of staying
engaged with all clients, while continually ensuring that WBG resources are strategically deployed to meet global and
client needs and targeted to areas of the world that most need funding. Engagements with shareholders on the Forward
Look strongly affirmed the WBG’s role as a premier institution in development. We reiterate our commitment to the
twin goals of eliminating extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity and to the four key priorities that the
Forward Look established: (i) stay engaged with all clients; (ii) lead on the Global Public Goods agenda; (iii)
mobilize capital and create markets; and (iv) continually improve effectiveness and the internal operational model.
4. We welcome the successful conclusion of the negotiations on the financial and policy package contained in the
Sustainable Financing for Sustainable Development report. The financial package includes a US$13 billion paid-in
capital increase, consisting of US$7.5 billion for IBRD and US$5.5 billion for IFC, via general and selective capital
increases. In addition, there will be a callable capital increase for IBRD. This is a transformative package, comprising
fundamental institutional and financial reforms. These include internal efficiency and revenue measures, and an
increase in capital that will support a financially sustainable and efficient WBG. We look forward to the policy
commitments in the package and the Forward Look being regularly monitored and reported on in an integrated way
and independently assessed after five years. We ask that Board-related and senior management budgets, including
salaries, be reviewed by the appropriate bodies, to identify possible additional cost-saving measures with the aim of
making a meaningful contribution to the financial package.
5. We welcome the Report of the Shareholding Review and accept its recommendations. The recommended Selective
Capital Increase (SCI) for IBRD will result in rebalanced shareholding and reduce extreme under-representation while
continuing to deliver voice reform in manageable steps. The recommended SCI for IFC will result in more closely
aligned voting power between the institutions of the WBG and contribute to the IFC capital increase.
6. We appreciate the intensive engagement by the Board and management on the new financial, shareholding, and
institutional reform packages. We ask the Board and management to submit draft resolutions to Governors by the end
of June for approval by the Annual Meetings 2018.
7. As agreed by Governors in 2010, the next five-yearly Shareholding Review will take place in 2020. This will provide
an opportunity to review under-representation relative to updated calculated shareholding from the IBRD Dynamic
Formula, as well as the other issues identified in the Lima shareholding review principles, including the rights and
responsibilities of shareholders. It will also provide an opportunity to consider further the methodology for IFC
shareholding.
8. The capital package has been developed against the backdrop of a changing and increasingly complex development
landscape. Despite impressive gains in recent decades, development progress remains uneven. Keeping up the pace of
past progress and addressing emerging challenges will require sustained effort in the face of persistent global
headwinds and structural changes to the global economy. Although global growth is expected to be robust in the near
term, the continued weakness of productivity growth and lingering financial vulnerabilities call for wide-ranging
reforms that will lay the foundation for strong growth over the longer term.
9. As the main driver of investment, innovation and jobs, the private sector needs to play a much greater role in
development. We call on the World Bank, IFC, and MIGA to work closely together to tackle market and regulatory
imperfections, strengthen policies and institutional capacity, and collaborate to mobilize private investment for
inclusive development and poverty reduction. The WBG must continue to crowd in private sector resources to
contribute to stability and growth potential, quality infrastructure, and human capital, including through strengthened
health and education systems and enhanced skills development and local job creation. We recognize the value of the
multilateral development banks working together more systematically and encourage the WBG to continue
coordinating with others in order to maximize financing and development impact. We urge the WBG and the IMF to
further enhance their support for governments seeking to boost domestic resource mobilization and combat illicit
financial flows.
10. The WBG is uniquely placed to address global development challenges, combining knowledge, convening power and
financial leverage. We encourage it to intensify its engagement to provide global public goods, help clients embed
resilience in their growth trajectories, and address global development issues including gender equality, climate,
regional integration, and pandemics.
11. We welcome progress on implementing IDA 18, where a record replenishment and innovative initiatives have the
potential to meet the most urgent development challenges. IDA’s increased focus on jobs and economic
transformation, including through the innovative Private Sector Window, is encouraging investment in IDA countries.
We also welcome overall WBG engagement in situations of fragility, conflict and violence, especially where
humanitarian crises cause hardship and forced displacement. We support management’s efforts to increase its field
presence in these areas.
12. We note with concern the marked increase in public debt levels in low-income countries in recent years, and call on
the WBG and IMF to work together on a multi-pronged approach to reduce public debt vulnerabilities. They should
continue to work closely with governments to strengthen fiscal frameworks and debt management capacity, and to
tackle debt data gaps and improve debt transparency, working with creditors where relevant. We welcome the
upcoming roll-out of an upgraded Debt Sustainability Framework for low-income countries by the two institutions,
which will enable a richer analysis and assessment of public debt vulnerabilities by governments.
13. We acknowledge the Progress Report on Mainstreaming Disaster Risk Management in WBG operations and look
forward to an update in two years. We are encouraged by overall financing commitments, portfolio distribution, and
continued demand for specialized policy instruments and investments to support resilience and disaster risk and
recovery. We call on the WBG to strengthen capacity by engaging in strategic partnerships, including with the UN,
IMF, and public and private partners to mobilize finance, develop relevant tools, forge south-south cooperation, and
stay attentive to the needs of vulnerable clients such as small island states.
14. We welcome the Update to Governors on Gender Diversity in the WBG Executive Boards. We support the continuing
work to enhance and promote gender diversity at the Board and are committed to work alongside Executive Directors
in this regard. We look forward to the progress report in advance of the 2019 Spring Meetings.
15. We appreciate the WBG’s continued commitment to protecting the most vulnerable in society and promoting
environmentally sound development practices. We expect rigorous implementation of the new Environment and
Social Framework. We look forward to continued WBG follow up on the recommendations of the Gender Based
Violence Task Force.
16. The next meeting of the Development Committee is scheduled for October 13, 2018, in Bali, Indonesia.

Annual Remuneration Disclosure Notice
Background
Effective as of fiscal 2007, the World Bank Group decided to disclose the remuneration of Executive
Management, Executive Directors, and staff in the annual report. The Annual Remuneration Disclosure Notice
contains the actual net salaries, annual World Bank Group contribution to the pension plan, and World Bank
Group contribution to benefits for the President, Executive Directors, Alternate Executive Directors, and staff at
Managing Director–level GK.
The Annual Remuneration Disclosure Notice format was developed by a team composed of members from
External and Corporate Relations; the Office of Ethics and Business Conduct; Human Resources Department of
Compensation and Performance; and Legal Institutional Administration. The Annual Remuneration Disclosure
Notice does not follow the exact Executive Compensation Disclosure requirements in U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulations S-K, but is designed to provide a reasonable voluntary disclosure of
World Bank Group compensation and benefits.
The report also lists the staff salary structure with the overall average benefits at each grade level.
Calculation of Compensation and Benefits

Consistent with previous years, in fiscal 2018 the following assumptions were used to determine the annual World
Bank Group contribution to the pension plan and other benefits:
Executive Management Remuneration
1. Annual Net Salary: This shows the actual annual net salary as of June 30, 2018.
2. Annual World Bank Group Contribution to the Pension Plan: This represents the Bank Group’s estimated
contribution to the pension plan calculated as a percentage of salaries, as approved by the Pension
Finance Committee. For fiscal 2018 the overall Staff Retirement Plan (SRP) contribution rate is 30.15
percent as provided by Treasury. The World Bank Group pension contribution increased from 29.99
percent in fiscal 2017 to 30.15 percent in fiscal 2018. SRP contribution rates are determined using an
adjusted value of pension plan assets based on an averaging methodology.1
3. The estimated contribution split between gross and net plan participants is 28.51 percent for gross plan
and 30.13 percent for net plan as estimated by the Bank Group’s Principal Actuary.
4. Thus, for Executive Management in the gross plan (Philippe H. Le Houerou, Shaolin Yang), the fiscal
2018 pension contribution is estimated at 28.51 percent. For the rest of management, who are in the net
plan, the pension contribution is estimated at 30.13 percent.
The Annual World Bank Group Contribution to Other Benefits: This is an estimate of the Bank Group’s
contribution to benefits (excluding pension, tax allowances of 9.64 percent, and separation grant of 1.39
percent for those not eligible). The historical average benefits, excluding pension, is 33.67 percent of
salary.
Next Steps
The enclosed annual disclosure report will be published as part of the World Bank Annual Report and posted on
the accompanying website.
1
The Pension Finance Committee considered and approved a revised funding methodology in December 2009, which became effective for
SRP valuations as of January 1, 2010, and contribution calculations as of July 1, 2010. The revised funding method is projected to further
stabilize the pattern of World Bank Group contributions, with the annual change in contribution rates expected to be approximately half that
under the previous method over the longer term. The new funding policy is based on the SRP’s actuarial asset value on a smoothed average
of the preceding five years; previously, the funding policy used a three-year average.
Remuneration of Executive Management, Executive Directors, and Staff
To recruit and retain highly qualified staff, the World Bank Group has developed a compensation and benefits
system designed to be internationally competitive, to reward performance, and to take into account the special
needs of a multinational and largely expatriate staff. The World Bank Group's staff salary structure is reviewed
annually by the Executive Directors, and if warranted, is adjusted on the basis of a comparison with salaries paid
by private financial and industrial firms and by representative public sector agencies in the U.S. market. After
analyses of updated comparator salaries, the Board approved an average increase in the salary structure of 2.2
percent for fiscal 2018, effective July 1, 2017, for Washington-based staff.
The annual salaries (net of taxes) of executive management of the World Bank Group (WBG) were as follows as
of June 30, 2018:

set on a net-of-tax basis. These salaries are generally equivalent to the after-tax take-home pay of the employees of the comparator
organizations and firms from which WBG salaries are derived. Only a relative small minority of staff will reach the upper third of the salary range.
a. Includes medical, life and disability insurance; accrued termination benefits; and other non-salary benefits. Excludes tax allowances.

a. World Bank Atlas methodology; 2016 per capita GNI (Gross National Income, formerly GNP) figures are in US dollars.
b. Countries are eligible for IDA on the basis of (a) relative poverty and (b) lack of creditworthiness. The operational cutoff for
IDA eligibility for FY18 is a 2016 GNI per capita of $1,165, using Atlas methodology. To receive IDA resources, countries
must also meet tests of performance. An exception has been made for some Small Island Economies. In exceptional
circumstances, IDA extends eligibility temporarily to countries that are above the operational cutoff.
c. Loans/credits in nonaccrual status as of July 1, 2017. General information on IBRD and IDA countries with loan/credits in
nonaccrual status is available from the IBRD Credit Risk (CROCR) and IDA Resource Mobilization (DFIRM) Departments,
respectively.
d. The country represents a Small Island Economies Exception and receives financing on IDA Small Economy Terms.
e. During IDA18 Bolivia, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam receive exceptional transitional support from IDA.
f. These calculations are based on numbers and data from official statistics of Ukraine and the Russian Federation; by relying
on those numbers and data, the Bank does not intend to make any judgment on the legal or other status of the territories
concerned or to prejudice the final determination of the parties' claims.
g. From FY17, refugees are included in the population estimates of host country.
h. The country represents Small State Economy, with a population of 1.5 million people or less. IDA Financing is on Small
Economy Terms, effective July 1, 2017.
i. IDA-only country that is also a Small Island Economy, therefore receives IDA Financing on Small Economy Terms.

a. The figures reported for each fiscal year represent the organizational unit structure at the end of that fiscal year and may not always match the figures published in previous
reports due to organizational changes and unit re-configurations. Additionally, these figures represent actuals as per management accounting, and may differ from figures
presented for financial accounting and reporting purposes that are in compliance with the United States' Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
b. Beginning in fiscal 2018, the budget and related expenditures related to changes in the non-salary staff costs recovery rate charged to units were moved from centrally-
managed accounts to corresponding organizational units. This contributed to the decrease in centrally-managed accounts and programs in fiscal 2018 and corresponding
increases in other units. The changes entailed increasing the non-salary staff costs recovery rate for Headquarters-appointed staff from 50 percent to 70 percent and introducing a
recovery rate of 45 percent for country office–appointed staff so as to more accurately reflect unit and product costs.
c. Includes institutional services units such as: Budget, Performance, and Strategy; Chief Risk Officer; Development Economics; Development Finance; External and Corporate
Relations; Legal; Operations Policy and Country Services; Treasury; and World Bank Group Finance and Accounting.
d. Includes governance services units such as: the Board; Corporate Secretariat; Independent Evaluation Group; Institutional Integrity; Internal Audit; the Offices of the President,
Chief Executive Officer, and Managing Directors; and Internal Justice Services (including Conflict Resolution System, Administrative Tribunal, Office of Ethics and Business

IBRD commitments and resources: New lending commitments by IBRD totaled $23 billion for 124 projects in fiscal year 2018.
IBRD raised US dollar equivalent (USDeq) 36 billion by issuing bonds in 27 currencies. IBRD’s equity comprises primarily paid-in
capital and reserves. IBRD’s Governors are voting on capital increase resolutions that would allow IBRD to lend more, consistent with
maintaining an appropriate equity-to-loans ratio. Lending capacity will increase once the capital contributions are received.
IDA commitments and resources: IDA commitments amounted to $24 billion for 206 operations in fiscal year 2018, including $18.5
billion in credits, $5 billion in grants, and $463 million in guarantees. IDA is financed largely by contributions from partner governments.
Additional financing comes from transfers from IBRD’s net income, grants from the International Finance Corporation, and borrowers’
repayments of earlier IDA credits. Total resources for the IDA18 Replenishment, which covers fiscal years 2018–20, amounted to $52.9

three kinds of arrangements: (1) part-time—the staff member works less than full-time; (2) job share—two staff work less than full-
time and share responsibility for one job; or (3) phased retirement—the staff member works reduced hours to help transition from
full-time work to retirement. A staff member on RWS works no less than 50 percent of the regular workweek schedule. In total, at the
end of fiscal year 2018, 57 Bank staff were on reduced work schedule.

102-9 Supply chain Corporate Procurement: Each year, about $1.3 billion in goods and services are purchased by the World Bank globally. Major
contracts include consulting services, travel, information technology and telecommunications, health and benefits, and construction
services. All vendors are required to adhere to the World Bank Corporate Procurement Policy. For more information, see: http://www.
worldbank.org/en/about/corporate-procurement.
Operational Procurement: World Bank projects have a global footprint, and therefore, a geographically diverse supply base. Bank
operations have varied supply chain characteristics depending on the nature of the items being procured and location (for instance,
supply chain characteristics in fragile states have unique market features). In general terms, about 70 percent of the Bank’s projects

by value are infrastructure related, typically transport, water, and energy projects. Road-related projects are typically supplied by local
providers for both design and construction. More complex or cutting-edge energy, water, and transport projects (for example, rail
systems) usually involve a global consortium combining the best skills around the world. Depending on how complex or proprietary the
technology requirements will determine whether items, for example, rail stock, turbines, and processing equipment, are imported or
manufactured locally. For civil works components, it is normal that these are sourced locally and use local labor. For goods, this varies
depending on the types of goods procured; if procured internationally, global supply chains are typically involved. Procurement of
services and consultants again depends on the type of service required.
At about 70 percent by value, the Bank’s support to infrastructure procurements are generally labor-intensive activities, particularly for
civil works components. These procurements typically use local labor and equipment. As such, the Bank’s standard bidding documents
for works projects put a high emphasis on labor management and protections, including, among other things, access to health services,
site safety, equality, pay, prevention of child labor and gender-based violence, and so on.
In fiscal year 2018, the Bank supported its borrowers in procurement from 2,767 different suppliers; about $9.6 billion was paid to
these suppliers in contracts subject to the Bank’s prior review. In fiscal 2017, 4,025 suppliers were awarded about $11.2 billion. The
Bank does not currently track subcontractors beyond the primary provider; however, the majority of these contracts by value are for
infrastructure projects and, as such, it is estimated that about 27,000 subcontractors could be involved beyond the primary supply chain
(a factor of 10 subcontractors to one primary supplier).

102-11 Precautionary The World Bank applies the precautionary approach through its safeguard policies.
Principle or approach
The Bank’s environmental and social safeguard policies are a cornerstone of its support to sustainable poverty reduction. The objectives
of these policies are to prevent and mitigate harm to people and their environment in the development process. These policies
provide guidelines for Bank and borrower staff in the identification, preparation, and implementation of programs and projects. The
effectiveness and development impact of programs and projects supported by the Bank has substantially increased as a result of
attention to these policies. Safeguard policies have often provided a platform for the participation of stakeholders in project design,
along with being an important instrument for building ownership among local populations. For more information, see http://www.
worldbank.org/safeguards.
102-12 External The World Bank is committed to helping developing countries end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity in a sustainable
initiatives manner. The Bank is a partner of choice for countries seeking to reach many of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs), adopted in September 2015, particularly in the context of financing, data, and supporting implementation. The World Bank is
also an active member of many external initiatives, such as the United Nations Environmental Management Group and the Multilateral
Financial Institutions Working Group on the Environment. As a UN-specialized agency, the Bank supports the mission of the UN and
the multilateral agreements for which the Bank acts as an implementing agency, such as the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the
Multilateral Fund for the Montreal Protocol, and the Convention to Combat Desertification. These facilities have enabled the Bank to
become the largest funder of projects in support of the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Stockholm Convention on Persistent
Organic Pollutants.

102-13 Membership The World Bank is not a formal member of industry or a business association, or a national or international advocacy organization,
of associations but it works with a wide range of civil society organizations, foundations, and private sector partners on multiple global issues. It is
also a sitting observer in the UN Development Group. These partnerships build support for the World Bank's twin goals of ending
extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity. The Bank partners with key stakeholders on a number of programs, including our
End Poverty campaign, and we partner on specific development challenges facing our partner countries, such as financial inclusion,
forced displacement, climate change, as well as human capital investments, including education and health. Key partnerships include
the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition, Early Childhood Development Network, the He4She initiative, and WeConnect International a
global network that connects women-owned businesses to buyers around the world.

102-15 Key The work of the World Bank is anchored in its goals: to end extreme poverty—reducing the share of the global population living in
impacts, risks, and extreme poverty to three percent by the year 2030—and to promote shared prosperity—increasing the income of the bottom 40
opportunities percent of the population. Both goals must be met in a sustainable manner.
IMPACTS: The World Bank Group Strategy, released in 2013, discusses the significant areas in which the World Bank makes economic,
social, and environmental impacts, as well as the associated challenges and opportunities along the path toward ending poverty
and boosting shared prosperity in a sustainable manner. In December 2017, the World Bank Group committed to no longer finance
upstream oil and gas, after 2019. In 2018, the World Bank Group announced that 32 percent of its financing had climate co-benefits—
exceeding the target set in 2015 that 28 percent of its lending volume would be climate-related by 2020.
World Bank staff work together with country-based staff, IFC, MIGA, and country partners to prioritize the WBG’s program of financial,
analytical, advisory, and convening support, based on the Bank Group’s comparative advantage and the client’s priorities, and in
response to development challenges highlighted in a Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD). The SCD identifies the barriers to eliminating
extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity within a country and is undertaken by the WBG before developing a new partnership
framework with a country. The diagnostic guides the development of the Country Partnership Framework (CPF), which outlines the
strategic interventions and support on which the WBG and partner country will engage. This SCD was introduced in July 2014, and as of
the end of fiscal year 2018, the WBG had prepared SCDs in 90 countries and new CPFs in 57 countries.
During the fiscal year 2019-21 planning period, the World Bank Group will focus on the following priorities: (1) support for client-facing
work, particularly for the IDA18 scale-up and areas affected by fragility, conflict, and violence, and for meeting the IBRD capital increase
policy commitments; (2) the Bank Group-wide partnership to crowd in private sector investment and create new markets to maximize
finance for development; (3) a renewed focus on human capital and on enhancing the Bank Group’s leadership on global issues; and
(4) improvement of the business model for greater effectiveness and efficiency.

102-15 Key RISKS: As a cooperative institution, IBRD seeks not to maximize profit but to earn enough income to ensure its financial strength and
impacts, risks, sustain its development activities. Of fiscal 2018 allocable net income, the Board of Executive Directors recommended to the Board
and opportunities of Governors the transfer of $248 million to IDA and the allocation of $913 million to the General Reserve. As part of its lending,
(continued) borrowing, and investment activities, IBRD is exposed to market, counterparty, country credit, and operational risks. The World Bank
Group’s Chief Risk Officer leads the risk oversight function, independently reports to the Board on an ongoing basis, and supports
the institutional decision-making process via dedicated risk committees. In addition, IBRD has put in place a strong risk management
framework, which supports management in its oversight functions. The framework is designed to enable and support IBRD in achieving
its goals in a financially sustainable manner. One summary measure of IBRD’s risk profile is the ratio of equity to loans, which is
closely managed in line with its financial and risk outlook. This ratio stood at 22.9 percent as of June 30, 2018. To download the IBRD
Financial Report and IDA Financial Report, visit: www.worldbank.org/financialresults.
GENERAL DISCLOSURES • Strategy
OPPORTUNITY: Fiscal year 2018 was witness to significant impacts to the financial resources for both IBRD and IDA, which are
anticipated to open new opportunities for the World Bank to provide support to its client member countries.
As part of the groundbreaking IDA18 package, IDA shareholders agreed to transform IDA’s financing model, leveraging its strong
General Disclosures
capital base to pioneer a new model for development finance that combines donor funding with funding raised in the capital markets.
IDA received its first-ever public credit rating—triple-A—in 2016. IDA’s financial strength is based on its robust capital position and
shareholder support, as well as on its prudent financial policies and practices, which help to maintain its triple-A credit rating. On
April 17, 2018, for the first time, IDA issued $1.5 billion of debt in the international capital markets. This inaugural IDA bond received
strong reception in the market, with total orders reaching $4.6 billion from around the world. IDA’s borrowing program will enable
IDA to significantly scale up its support toward achieving the SDGs while offering investors an efficient way to contribute to global
development.
At the 2018 Spring Meetings, the Development Committee of the Board of Governors endorsed a package of measures that include
a $13 billion paid-in capital increase for the World Bank Group, including $7.5 billion for IBRD, as well as a $52.6 billion increase in
callable capital for IBRD. The boost in capital is augmented by a broad range of internal measures to create an even stronger World
Bank Group. Draft resolutions on the capital increase were sent to the Governors for formal approval in June 2018.

Code of Conduct: A new Bank Group Code of Conduct will be launched in fiscal year 2019 in line with the new Core Values. There
is a separate Code of Conduct for Board officials. Business partners are informed of ethics expectations through a separate document.
Adherence to high ethical standards is specified in contracts with employees, Board officials, and business partners. Section 1(c) of the
Code for Board Officials requires them to sign the code document upon assuming duty and deposit it with the Ethics Committee of the
Board. In addition to the required training for new staff, the institution offers a number of ethics training courses on values, expected
business conduct, recourses available against misconduct and retaliation, and the prevention of conflicts of interest.
Staff members are required to uphold World Bank Group Staff Rules as a condition of employment.
Trainings: There is a mandatory e-learning training on the Code of Conduct for all new staff, including consultants with contracts of
more than 30 days. A summary of the Code of Conduct is available in nine languages.
A new mandatory e-Learning was launched in fiscal 2018, on preventing and addressing sexual harassment, to be completed by all
staff by September 30, 2018. Preventing and addressing sexual harassment is inextricably linked to the World Bank Group’s core values
integrity, teamwork, and respect.
Responsibility: The head of the WBG Ethics and Business Conduct (EBC) is a Chief Ethics Officer who reports directly to the World
Bank Group President. The leadership of this function by a Chief Ethics Officer reflects the importance of EBC’s mandate, comprised
of four key areas of responsibility: (1) setting standards through the design and stewardship of ethical policy, practices, decisions, and
behavior, including administering Declarations of Interest Programs to ensure public confidence; (2) reaching out to staff and offering
training to strengthen values, foster a culture of respect and integrity, and build bridges between scientific research and practice in
ethical development; (3) advising staff and clients by sharing ethics expertise and spotting trends, and providing counsel on conflicts of
interest and compliance-related issues as needed; and (4) addressing misconduct by reviewing concerns, recommending actions, and
facilitating resolutions. For more information on the World Bank’s Code of Conduct and EBC functions, see http://worldbank.org/

102-17 Mechanisms Seeking advice about ethical and lawful behavior, and organizational integrity: The World Bank encourages staff members
for advice and (both past and present) to seek ethics-related advice and report suspected misconduct and other ethical issues through its Ethics and
concerns about Business Conduct Department. Modes of seeking advice include: (1) via the Ethics Helpline (800-261-7497) that is available 24 hours
ethics a day and administered in multiple languages by an outside vendor; (2) via email (ethics_helpline(a)worldbank.org); and (3)
employees can seek advice directly from EBC staff during office hours or arrange to speak with team members at a convenient time.
Advisory requests are treated with the highest possible level of confidentiality given the requirements of the case. Requests for advice
can be made anonymously.
GENERAL DISCLOSURES • Ethics and Integrity
For reports of suspected misconduct, all information is confidential and subject to disclosure on a strict need-to-know basis. Anonymous
complaints are accepted.
Reporting concerns about unethical or unlawful behavior, and organizational integrity: there were 914 requests for
advice in fiscal year 2018. In more than 93 percent of the cases, answers were provided within two business days. The most frequently
received queries concerned a staff member’s outside activities, a couple’s or family’s relationship, or vendor procurement.
In fiscal year 2018, 252 allegations of misconduct were received. The most frequently received involved allegations of harassment
General Disclosures
excluding sexual harassment, noncompliance with rules, and sexual harassment. The large majority of allegations were reviewed and
closed after intake or initial review. Of those, 19 resulted in the submission of an investigative report to the Vice President of Human
Resources, who has the authority to determine if misconduct occurred and to impose sanctions.
The Bank Group has a nonretaliation policy that protects against any direct or indirect detrimental action threatened or taken because a
person engaged in a protected activity. Retaliation is considered misconduct and is investigated and sanctioned accordingly.
In addition, the Bank’s Integrity Vice Presidency works to improve compliance with corruption-related policies. The unit trains staff to
detect and deter fraud and corruption and investigates allegations in activities conducted or financed by the World Bank Group—as
well as allegations of significant fraud and corruption involving staff.
Details are outlined for staff in the World Bank Group Code of Conduct. See http://worldbank.org/ethics.

GOVERNANCE
102-18 Governance The World Bank is a development institution for which its 189 member countries are shareholders. Member countries govern the Bank
structure through the Boards of Governors and the Board of Executive Directors (EDs).
The Boards of Governors consist of one Governor and one alternate Governor appointed by each member country. The office is usually
held by the country’s minister of finance, governor of its central bank, or a senior official of similar rank. The Governors and alternates
serve for terms of five years and can be reappointed. The Governors delegate specific duties to the 25 Executive Directors, who sit
as a resident Board of Directors in Washington, DC. The five largest shareholders appoint an Executive Director, while other member
countries are represented by elected Executive Directors. Together, the Boards of Governors and the Executive Directors make all major
decisions for the organization, including policy, financial, and membership issues.
GENERAL DISCLOSURES • Governance

In addition to representing their own countries and others they are elected to represent, Executive Directors serve on one or more of
five standing committees: Audit Committee, Budget Committee, Committee on Development Effectiveness (CODE), Human Resources
Committee, and Committee on Governance and Executive Directors’ Administrative Matters (COGAM). The committees help the Board
execute its oversight responsibilities through in-depth examinations of policies and practices, overseeing and making decisions about
the Bank’s policies and procedures, financial condition, risk-management and assessment processes, adequacy of governance and
controls, and effectiveness of development and poverty-reduction activities.
CODE supports the Board in assessing the development effectiveness of the World Bank Group, providing guidance on strategic
directions of each member institution of the World Bank Group, monitoring the quality and results of World Bank Group operations,
and overseeing or liaising on the work of the entities that are part of the World Bank Group’s accountability framework, including with
regard to economic, environmental, and social topics.
In addition, the Ethics Committee provides guidance on matters covered by the Code of Conduct for Board officials. These committees
function independently of all World Bank Group executive officers.

102-24 Nominating Nominating Governors of the World Bank depends on the political systems of the individual 189 member governments. The main
and selecting the criterion is that a Governor is a minister of finance, development, or another national ministry. Other criteria like diversity, independence,
highest governance and expertise may factor into the independent, government-led decision-making process. The World Bank has no direct influence over

102-35 Remuneration Per the World Bank Articles of Agreement, “ [T]he Board of Governors shall determine the remuneration to be paid to the Executive
policies Directors and the salary and terms of the contract of service of the President.” To recruit and retain highly qualified staff, the World
Bank Group has developed a compensation and benefits system designed to be internationally competitive, to reward performance, and
to take into account the special needs of a multinational and largely expatriate staff. The Bank Group’s staff salary structure is reviewed
annually by the Executive Directors and, if warranted, is adjusted on the basis of a comparison with salaries paid by private financial
and industrial firms and by representative public-sector agencies in the U.S. market.
GENERAL DISCLOSURES • Stakeholder Engagement

The Articles also state that Governors (the highest governance body) “...shall serve as such without compensation from the Bank, but
the Bank shall pay them reasonable expenses incurred in attending meetings.”
Senior Management salaries are disclosed in the Annual Report: http://www.worldbank.org/annualreport.
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
102-40 List of As a global employer, the World Bank consults and collaborates with thousands of stakeholders throughout the world. The World
stakeholder groups Bank groups the stakeholders into two main categories: internal and external. Internal stakeholders include shareholder governments
(the Boards of Governors), Executive Directors and Senior Management, and Bank employees. External stakeholders include
parliamentarians; civil society; faith-based organizations; academics; professionals; the private sector (including sustainable responsible
investors, companies, and social entrepreneurs); and international, national, and local media, among others.
102-41 Collective At the World Bank Group, the percentage of total employees covered by collective bargaining agreements is zero.
bargaining
However, the World Bank Group Staff Association, founded in 1972, represents and protects the rights and interests of all (that is,
agreements
100 percent) of the staff as part of its mandate. The Staff Association negotiates with the Human Resources Vice Presidency, senior
management, line management, and the Executive Directives to ensure the interests of staff are met. The Staff Association is not a
union and does not engage in collective bargaining. It serves a critical role by representing the rights of all World Bank Group staff, as
provided in Staff Rule 10.01.
Currently, there are 11,815 World Bank Group staff that are members of the Staff Association, and 90 country offices have established
Country Office Staff Associations.
102-42 Identifying World Bank works with diverse stakeholders who share the commitment to advance the World Bank Group’s twin goals—to end
and selecting extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity. Getting the necessary stakeholders involved is essential, but also challenging given that
stakeholders our stakeholders range from donor and client governments to the poorest and most marginalized communities.
In the context of World Bank-supported activities, stakeholders are considered to be anyone who is in some way—positively or
negatively—impacted by the potential outcomes of these activities. The stakeholders are varied so what impacts a segment or
segments of this group depends on what the activities’ outcomes are.
15
102-43 Approach The World Bank Group engages with a broad cross-section of stakeholder groups in ways that are both context-specific and situational.
to stakeholder Engagement takes the form of numerous approaches, including policy dialogue; operational partnerships; consultations; convenings and
engagement global platforms, such as the Annual and Spring Meetings; and joint issue-based advocacy on campaigns, such as End Poverty and the
Early Years campaign on early childhood development.
1. Member governments: Executive Directors and Governors engage regularly with a wide spectrum of stakeholders, including
national stakeholders in their own country and with international civil society organizations (CSOs) on the margins of the organization’s
Spring and Annual Meetings, as well as during travel to client countries for Bank Group operations. Each fall and spring, the Boards
of Governors of the World Bank Group and International Monetary Fund (IMF) hold Annual and Spring Meetings to discuss a range
of issues related to poverty reduction, international economic development, and finance. The Annual Meetings provide a forum for
international cooperation and enable the Bank Group and IMF to better serve their client countries. In addition to the Annual and
Spring Meetings, the Development Committee convenes to advise the Boards of Governors on issues of global concern, including the
world economic outlook, poverty eradication, economic development, and aid effectiveness. Outcomes of the Development Committee
are inputs to the GRI materiality exercise. See http://worldbank.org/devcom.
General Disclosures
2. Employees: Staff engagement, pride in the institution, and commitment to a shared mission are key to the World Bank’s success.
Staff are kept informed at all times and have formal and informal opportunities to engage and have dialogue with senior management
through various avenues, such as internal events, live webcast leadership townhalls, online chats, leadership blogs, and so on. The
World Bank’s intranet is available to all staff across 140 countries and is easily accessible on employee devices. Management ensures
flow of information through communications, announcements, stories, webinars, learning opportunities, targeted briefings, broad-reach
newsletters, and emails. More broadly, to support staff in feeling part of an integrated community, there are additional engagements
such as cultural performances, staff profiles, and staff conversations. The Bank also promotes various corporate communication
campaigns, such as the Community Connections Campaign, to raise funds for the local community and client countries, campaigns
around staff health and wellness, safety and security, etc. Monitoring the staff level of engagement is very important. The regular,
in-depth employee Engagement Survey invites staff to voice opinions on key issues, from leadership to career development, and
inclusiveness to the work environment. The Bank engagement index and the participation rate in the Engagement Survey remain
consistently high. As indicated in the 2017 survey, the Bank’s participation rate and the engagement index continued this trend,
respectively at 85 and 80 percent.
3. Civil Society: The World Bank engages Civil Society Organizations (CSOs, which include faith-based and religious organizations)
regularly at the global, regional, and local levels. The Bank shares information, solicits input on policy reform, consults with CSOs on our
strategy, collaborates with CSOs on Bank-financed projects, and forges partnerships to further our dual goals. For example: the Bank’s
Civil Society team hosts a monthly update call with more than 300 CSOs, and distributes a monthly CSO eNewsletter that reaches
roughly 8,000 subscribers.
At the country level, the World Bank consults with a broad spectrum of CSOs on the Systematic Country Diagnostic, the Country
Partnership Framework, and individual Bank-funded development projects, as well as knowledge products and advisory work. Often
these interactions involve multiple stakeholders such as government, private sector, development institutions, and donors at different
times in the project or program cycle. Within these operations, the Bank is helping to build sustainable national systems for citizen
engagement that give citizens a stake in decision-making with the objective of improving development outcomes.
102-43 Approach Twice a year, during the Annual and Spring Meetings, the World Bank Group hosts the Civil Society Policy Forum, which enables the
to stakeholder Bank and CSOs to deliberate on critical issues such as citizen engagement, financial intermediaries, education, energy, and climate
engagement change. More than 1,000 CSO participants attended the event at the 2018 Spring Meetings—a record-setting attendance to date—
(continued) demonstrating the enduring interest from CSOs in engaging with the Bank. A new CSO Innovation Fair, held during the spring Policy
Forum, also provided a unique opportunity for CSOs to interact with each another and Bank staff through a showcase of their advocacy
campaigns, online data tools, and other innovative products and interventions. Through the Strategic Framework for Mainstreaming
Citizen Engagement in World Bank Group Operations, the Bank Group engages with CSOs and citizens to achieve better development

results. This effort is grounded in the commitment to include beneficiary feedback in World Bank Group-financed projects in which there
are clearly identifiable beneficiaries.
See http://www.worldbank.org/news.
Topics raised by CSOs are used as inputs to the GRI materiality exercise.
4. Opinion Leaders: The Country Opinion Survey (COS) Program systematically assesses and tracks the views of external opinion
leaders across client countries. The World Bank Group has collected thousands of opinions in this mandated program since its inception,
in fiscal 2012. Each client country is surveyed once every three years; each year, about 40 to 45 countries are included. In this manner,
over a three-year cycle, the COS Program obtains feedback from stakeholders in nearly all client countries. No other multilateral
organization engages in a feedback mechanism of such breadth and depth. Priorities identified by Opinion Leaders through the COS are
used as input to the GRI materiality exercise.
5. ESG Investor Community: The World Bank engages with investors including those with environmental, social, and governance
(ESG) investment considerations. Many of these investors consult reports published by ESG firms that rate and rank issuers based
on specific environmental, social, and governance indicators. The firms believe that the ratings reflect the investors’ general areas of
interest. In their issuer profile reports, ESG firm research teams analyze the World Bank’s (IBRD’s) approach to how to lend and conduct
business internally as it pertains to, for example, staff satisfaction, health, and safety; board member composition; and carbon footprint
based on business-as-usual activities. The World Bank frequently receives requests to review and provide feedback on ESG report drafts,
and in many cases, there is already a draft response, which the Bank fact-checks and balances with additional resources (for example,
reports, talking points, press releases, and so on) so that the requestors have a more holistic and complete understanding of our
corporate and development activities.
The questions the World Bank regularly provides feedback on to ESG research and rating firms are used as part of the materiality
exercise for the GRI Index.
6. Local, national, and international media: The World Bank regularly reaches out to media to cover corporate priorities, including
events involving senior management. At key opportunities, such as the Annual and Spring Meetings, the Bank proactively drives the
primary messages of the institution, such as its commitment to its goals of ending extreme poverty by 2030 and boosting shared
prosperity. The World Bank uses traditional media outlets and social media to promote issues that need to be addressed to achieve
those goals, such as major reports on climate change, forced displacement, and gender inequality. The Bank also responds to media
queries to help the media better understand the Bank’s role and responsibilities. Press releases, statements, transcripts, and feature
stories from the Bank appear on the World Bank’s website homepage, http://www.worldbank.org, and on the news site,
http://worldbank.org/en/news.

7. Foundations and the private sector: The World Bank Group mobilizes political and financial support from the philanthropic
engagement
world to advance the institution’s twin goals. Partnerships range from direct or parallel grant contributions to research, knowledge
(continued) sharing, and joint advocacy. These partnerships often provide crucial early seed funding and access to innovative ideas and new
expertise. They also allow the Bank Group to reach a broad network of civil society grantees.
The World Bank Group currently partners with about 100 foundations across all regions of the world. In fiscal year 2018, the Bank
Group launched a number of important new partnerships with foundations that focused on scaling up investment and advocacy
efforts on priority issues, including forced displacement, climate change, as well as investments in human capital. In addition, the WBG
continued to strengthen existing partnerships. Some examples include:
• The Advisory Council—an annual action-oriented meeting designed to build political will and to kick-start transformative
partnership—convened a select group of high-level, influential philanthropic leaders alongside senior Bank Group leadership
around the topic of forced displacement. Participants agreed to explore the feasibility of building a matchmaking platform to attract
more funding to Jordan, which would benefit refugees and local host communities. Since the meeting, the World Bank has been
working in close collaboration with the Tent Foundation to increase engagement by global businesses, and with the Open Society
Foundations on a deal catalyst mechanism to create a pipeline of investable opportunities. The aim of the platform is to bring
local businesses, global corporations, foundations, philanthropic investors, and the development community together to create
opportunities for refugees and host populations through investment, sourcing, market access, and skills and capacity development.
• The World Bank Group also continued to engage with philanthropic forums including the European Foundation Centre and the
Global Philanthropy Forum.
• In fiscal year 2018, the Bank partnered with the Global System for Mobile Communications Association to harness the power of data from
the Internet of Things to support the use of technology to help developing countries solve their most critical development challenges.
• The Bank’s Identification for Development (ID4D) initiative provides global knowledge and expertise to help countries realize
the potential of digital identification systems and forges partnerships with external actors. During this year’s Annual Meetings,
ID4D launched a High-Level Advisory Council to advance digital identification as a sustainable development priority. The Council,
co-chaired by Kristalina Georgieva, IBRD and IDA CEO, and Amina J. Mohammed, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General, consists
of prominent global leaders, including: Mo Ibrahim, Chairman of the Mo Ibrahim Foundation and Founder of Celter; Nandan
Nilekani, Co-Founder of Infosys, and Founding Chairman, Unique Identification Authority of India; and Eric Jing, CEO, Ant Financial.
ID4D engaged with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Omidyar Network, and the Government of Australia, whose support
brings thought leadership and funding to this initiative.
• This year, the World Bank Group continued to engage partners on issues of advocacy, such as the Human Capital Project. During
the Spring Meetings, discussion on making human capital a project for the world, Bill Gates came forward to champion the human
capital agenda in partnership with the World Bank Group. In addition to the efforts on human capital, the World Bank Group also
worked with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to deepen engagement and raise the level of ambition the two institutions have
to improve the lives of the people we serve.

102-44 Key topics Topics of concern raised in the past year include:
and concerns raised
1. Member states: Member states issue communiques during Annual and Spring Meetings. These can be found online. See, for
instance, the Development Committee Communique from April 2018: http://siteresources.worldbank.org/DEVCOMMINT/
Communiques/23776683/Communique(E)immediaterelease4-21.pdf.
2. Employees: In surveys, Bank staff continuously show high levels of engagement and pride in working for the organization.
Following up on the most recent 2017 survey, we have developed Vice Presidential Unit action plans that focus on areas of concern,
such as institutional practices, leadership development, work-life balance, and so on. The status of action plans is updated and
GENERAL DISCLOSURES • Reporting Practice

monitored on a regular basis. This approach has led to improvement in a number of areas at both the VPU and corporate level.
3. Opinion Leaders: In fiscal year 2018, the mean rating for the Bank Group’s effectiveness and impact on development results
(combined rating for two variables) in the Bank Group’s client countries was 6.4 on a 10-point scale across all COS respondents.
Participants in the fiscal year 2018 COS had significantly lower ratings for the Bank Group’s effectiveness and impact on development
results compared to participants in the fiscal year 2017 COS (the mean in fiscal year 2018 was 6.4; the mean in fiscal year 2017
was 6.6). Clients (those respondents who work with the institution) rated the Bank Group’s collaboration with other donors and
development partners in IDA countries lower compared to participants in the fiscal year 2017 COS (the mean in fiscal year 2018
was 7.1; the mean in fiscal year 2017 was 7.4). On responsiveness and staff accessibility (combined rating for two variables), the
client ratings were the same: 6.8 (statistically similar to the fiscal year 2017 COS rating: 6.8). For more information, see http://
countrysurveys.worldbank.org/
4. ESG Investor Community: Investors have asked for clarification about the project implementation process and how safeguards
help reduce social and environmental risks. Their questions focused on, for example, preventing risks before resettlement and the
procurement process. In addition, investors may ask about labor and the supply chain during project implementation by contractors
helping to install projects on the ground alongside local agencies. In the past, investors have asked about how well these companies
that were procured for project implementation are vetted in order to prevent any violation of human rights and child labor within
countries where projects are being financed.
REPORTING PRACTICE
102-45 Entities The content and data in this document relate to the International Bank of Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the

102-46 Defining The topics deemed relevant for disclosure were identified by assessing annual corporate priorities outlined by the institution’s Boards
report content and and President, considering stakeholder input, as well as ascertaining sustainability impacts of carrying out the mission and vision.
topic Boundaries Stakeholder feedback is gained through internal focal points that manage the relationships with the Board, civil society, investors, staff,
media, and clients.
To determine if a GRI aspect is material for the World Bank to report on, an assessment is carried out based on the potential impacts on
the Bank’s business, and sustainability impacts stemming from its business. The business-case category evaluates potential reputational
risks to the organization, the importance to stakeholders (based on the above sources), the linkages with the Bank’s mission and
goals and those identified as material in the World Bank Corporate Responsibility Strategic Plan. The sustainability impact refers to
environmental and social criteria, as outlined by the Natural Step, namely, material extracted from the earth’s crust; the accumulation
of persistent or toxic emissions; extractive industry or destructive processes; and the extent to which people’s ability to meet their needs
are undermined. To ensure representation of sustainable development, an additional criterion was added to give preference for impact
on the local economy.
The Principles for Defining Report Content have been applied to identify, prioritize, and validate the information to be disclosed by
considering the World Bank’s activities, impacts, and the substantive expectations and interests of its stakeholders. Each criterion above
is given a point and a threshold is set to prioritize GRI aspects to include in the report.
102-47 List of Boundaries are defined based on the management control of impacts – indirect impacts lay within the “operational” boundary while
material topics direct impacts fall within the “corporate” boundary. For each material topic, boundaries are provided in the management approach
disclosures.
Impacts external to the organization [“operational boundary”]
“Operational boundary” denotes an indirect impact that occurs when the World Bank provides lending and analytical services and may
not be directly controlled by the Bank’s management.
Impacts internal to the organization [“corporate boundary”]
“Corporate boundary” refers to the impact from activities over which the Bank has direct control, such as operating World Bank
facilities and managing staff members.
Operational impact
The World Bank’s most pertinent sustainability impacts from financial and technical services to clients can be summarized in the
following GRI topic specific disclosures:
1. Economic Performance – Because creating and distributing economic value is part of the mission of eliminating extreme poverty,
shareholders and investors care about the sustainable economic performance of the institution.
2. Indirect Economic Impacts – These impacts are an essential aspect of the Bank’s goal of reducing poverty and boosting shared
prosperity.

102-47 List of 3. Anti-corruption – Critical to the World Bank’s mission to alleviate extreme poverty is a well-functioning public sector that delivers
material topics quality public services consistent with citizen preferences. It also must foster private, market-led growth while managing its fiscal
(continued) resources in a prudent manner. Opinion leaders in the Bank’s client countries listed anti-corruption as one of their development
priorities.
4. Procurement Practices – World Bank operations have a global footprint, and therefore a very geographically diverse supply base.
Encouraging the responsible behavior of its major suppliers is important for reducing environmental impacts along its supply chain.
5. Human Rights / Child Labor / Indigenous Rights / Local Communities – The World Bank promotes human rights by ensuring
that there is no prejudice or discrimination toward project-affected individuals or communities and give particular consideration

to Indigenous Peoples, minority groups, and those disadvantaged or vulnerable, especially where adverse impacts may arise or
development benefits are to be shared.
Corporate impact
The most material topics of the Bank’s internal operations include the following:
1. Staff are the World Bank’s greatest asset. They bring a wide range of perspectives to bear on poverty-reduction issues and emerging
development challenges and are critical to the effectiveness of the Bank’s core operational and knowledge services. Staff-related
disclosures are pulled from the following GRI aspect categories: Employment, Occupational Health and Safety, Training and
Education, Diversity and Equal Opportunity, and Nondiscrimination.
2. The Bank recognizes that reducing its own corporate environmental impacts is in line with the institutional mission to reduce
poverty, as environmental degradation affects the world’s poor disproportionately. Increasing the efficiency of how the organization
runs its business—through facility-level and staff-behavior changes—reduces natural-resource waste and decreases the cost of day-
to-day operations. Key aspects related to the Bank’s environmental footprint include: Materials, Energy, Water, Emissions, Effluents
and Waste, and Procurement Practices.

ECONOMIC DISCLOSURES
GRI 201: ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic is material - The World Bank, one of the world’s largest development institutions, is an important source of financial
resources and technical assistance for developing countries around the globe. It is not a bank in the ordinary sense, but a unique partnership formed to reduce
poverty and promote development. Two goals—ending extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity—guide the Bank’s mission. Sustainability, an overarching

theme, frames these goals. To support this mission, the Bank provides a wide array of investments in such areas as education, health, public administration,
infrastructure, financial and private sector development, agriculture, and environmental and natural resource management, and climate change, among others. The
areas that Bank investments support present enormous challenges and opportunities for development, making it essential that they be tackled in an integrated way.
103-1b: The Boundary for the material topic - This topic applies to the World Bank’s operational boundary impacts. The World Bank’s lending is aimed at
two different groups of countries: the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) strives to reduce poverty in middle-income and credit-
worthy poorer countries through loans, guarantees, risk-management products, and analytical and advisory services. Its companion organization, the International
Development Association (IDA), offers below-market-rate financing to the world’s 78 poorest countries, primarily through credits and grants. IBRD funds itself
through high-quality bonds offered in the international capital markets. IDA’s funding is predominantly from contributions by donor countries, including OECD
countries and, increasingly, middle-income nations.
103-1c: Any specific limitation regarding the Boundary of the topic - This response does not cover activities of the other three agencies of the World Bank
Group: the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), and the International Centre for Settlement of Investment
Disputes (ICSID). Some references to the World Bank Group have been made in this report as appropriate.

and targets; iv. Responsibilities; v. Resources; vi. Grievance mechanisms; vii. Specific actions, such as processes, projects, programs and initiatives
- The Bank has established two goals to galvanize international and national development efforts: to end extreme poverty (i.e., reducing the share of the global
population living in extreme poverty to 3 percent by the year 2030) and to promote shared prosperity (i.e., increasing the income of the bottom 40 percent of the
population). Both goals must be met in a sustainable manner.
The World Bank Corporate Scorecard is designed to provide a snapshot of the Bank’s overall performance in the context of development results. It facilitates strategic
dialogue between Bank management and its Board of Executive Directors on progress made and areas that need attention. Aspects of financial sustainability are
measured under the Scorecard’s Tier III, which reviews the overall success of Bank activities in achieving development goals and examines the effectiveness of Bank
operations, including the performance of its lending portfolio. For more information on the Corporate Scorecard, see http://scorecard.worldbank.org.
The World Bank Group has established its Climate Change Action Plan for 2016-2020 in April 2016. The Climate Change Action Plan serves as a guiding document
on climate action and lays out ambitious climate change related targets and commitments to meet challenges and opportunities from climate change by supporting
transformative policies and institutions, scaling up sectoral climate actions, integrating climate change across its operations, and working more closely with others.
IDA18 includes climate-related policy commitments on deepening mainstreaming by increasing climate focus through strategic programming and project design,
supporting efforts towards achieving Sustainable Energy for All objectives, and monitoring and reporting on IDA resources used and private finance mobilized for
climate change. Performance against these commitments is reported quarterly at a meeting chaired by the Chief Executive Officer.

In fiscal year 2018, IBRD’s administrative expenses were $1.13 billion (versus $1.18 billion in 2017 and $1.30 billion in 2016), and IDA’s
administrative and development grant expenses for fiscal year 2017 were $6.47 billion (versus $4.09 billion in 2017 and $2.41 billion in
2016). Significant progress has been made to ensure budget spending discipline and efficiency, which has resulted in an improvement in
the budget anchor (an efficiency measure that shows net administrative expenses as a percentage of loan spread revenue).

risks and opportunities
due to climate change
The World Bank Group has committed to increase its climate financing to 28 percent of the Bank Group’s portfolio by 2020, in
response to client demand. To meet this commitment, the organization adopted the Climate Change Action Plan that lays out
ambitious targets to be met by 2020 in such areas as clean energy, climate-smart agriculture, disaster risk management, and
sustainable urbanization, including helping client countries add 30 gigawatts of renewable energy, put in place early warning

systems for 100 million people, and develop climate-smart agriculture investment plans for at least 40 countries.
The World Bank Group is on track to meet or exceed the key objectives of the Climate Change Action Plan.
• In fiscal year 2018, $20.5 billion, or 32 percent, of total commitments to activities with climate co-benefits had been made, an
increase from $10.8 billion, or 18 percent, of total commitments in 2016.
• Increased financing for climate action has driven strong results, including generating or integrating 18 gigawatts of additional
renewable energy into electricity grids, and mobilizing over $10 billion in commercial finance for clean energy.
• The World Bank has provided 38 million people in 18 countries with access to reliable climate information and early warning
systems to deal with more frequent and intense natural disasters such as floods and hurricanes.
• Country Forest Notes have been developed for seven countries, while 22 climate-smart agriculture profiles or investment plans
have been completed for 20 countries, seeking to maximize finance for climate-resilient and low-carbon development in the sector.
• Through tracking of climate co-benefits, screening of climate and disaster risks, and applying greenhouse gas (GHG)
accounting to operations in key sectors, climate change is being mainstreamed throughout the institution.
• At the One Planet Summit in December 2017, the World Bank Group made the announcement that it will no longer finance
upstream oil and gas after 2019 and ramp up climate ambition by announcing new commitments and targets beyond 2020 at
the COP24 in Poland in 2018.
For details on climate-related projects, see http://www.worldbank.org/climatechange.
Progress against the financing target are tracked in the World Bank Group’s Corporate Scorecards, in which annual climate-related
commitments are tracked by measuring the share of climate-related financing in total commitments, see http://scorecard.

Plan assets (other benefits) are included in IBRD’s investment portfolio. The assets of the plans are used for the exclusive benefit of
the participants and their beneficiaries, and represent the accumulated contributions paid into the plans net of benefit payments,
together with the accumulated value of investment earnings, net of related expenses.
As of June 30, 2018, the value of accrued pension liabilities for IBRD/IDA was $18.4 billion, supported by assets of $18 billion
held in a trust. The funded ratio (assets over liabilities) was 97.5 percent.

quality corporate bond rates. The two amounts are estimated in full compliance with the U.S. accounting standards (ASC 715).
201-3d: Percentage of salary contributed by employee or employer.
The World Bank’s contribution to the pension plan is based on a specified funding methodology and varies from year to year in
response to changes in the plan’s financial position. Employees participating in the gross plan (closed plan) contribute 7 percent
of the pensionable gross salary. Employees in the net plan (open to new entrants) contribute 5 percent of their net salary to the
mandatory cash balance component. Participants in the net plan may choose to contribute up to an additional 6 percent of their
net salary to the cash balance.

Trust funds: Generally accounted for separately from the Bank’s own resources, trust funds are financial and administrative
arrangements with external donors that lead to grant funding of high-priority development needs, such as technical assistance,
advisory services, debt relief, post-conflict transition, and co-financing.
Taxes: As an organization established by international treaty, the World Bank receives tax-exempt status from its member countries.
GRI 203: INDIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACTS

Disclosure 103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - The World Bank is an important source of financial resources and technical
assistance for developing countries around the world. It is not a bank in the ordinary sense, but a unique partnership formed to reduce poverty and support
economic development.
The World Bank supports a wide array of critical investments in such areas as education, health, public administration and institutional development, infrastructure,
financial and private sector development, agriculture, and environmental and natural resource management, among others. These investments are aimed to help
countries to grow their economies inclusively and sustainably; to build the human capital needed to help people seize economic opportunity; and to ensure that
countries remain resilient in the face of global shocks or threats that could undermine progress in eliminating poverty.
Stakeholders—including the Bank’s member countries, investors, and partners from across civil society as well as the private sector, among others—recognize
development as a key impact of the Bank’s business.

Commitments; iii. Goals and targets; iv. Responsibilities; v. Resources; vi. Grievance mechanisms; vii. Specific actions, such as processes, projects,
programs and initiatives - When the World Bank provides governments with financing to invest in projects, it aims to ensure that people and the environment
are protected from potentially adverse impacts. The Bank follows policies that identify, avoid, and minimize harm to people and the environment. These policies
require the borrowing governments to address certain environmental and social risks in order to receive World Bank support for investment projects.
27
The current environmental and social policies of the Bank are known as the Safeguard Policies, the mechanism for addressing environmental and social issues in
Bank-supported project design, implementation, and operation. They provide a framework for consultation with communities and for public disclosure. In August
2016, the World Bank updated its Safeguard Policies with the Environmental and Social Framework (ESF). All investment projects approved after October 1, 2018
will abide by the new ESF policies. The ESF will incrementally replace the Safeguard Policies; the two will operate in parallel for about seven years to govern projects
approved before and after the date the ESF starts to be applied.

Disclosure 103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s) - The World Bank holds itself accountable to its
clients and shareholders through institutional mechanisms that monitor operational performance. These include the World Bank Corporate Scorecard, the IDA
Results Measurement System, and regular opportunities to discuss progress on operations with the Bank’s Executive Directors. The Bank also benefits from the
expertise of key units within and independent of the institution. The Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) aims to strengthen the World Bank Group’s development
effectiveness through evaluations that assess results and performance and recommends improvements. IEG’s evaluations contribute to accountability and learning
and inform the World Bank Group’s new directions, policies and procedures, and country partnership frameworks. IEG’s annual Results and Performance of the World
Bank Group report assesses the Bank Group’s efforts to mainstream environmental sustainability in its country- and project-level work.

Infrastructure development in sectors such as energy, transport, and information and digital technology is critical to accelerating
supported
economic growth, helping build human capital, and reducing poverty. The World Bank supports governments through analysis
and advice, financial instruments, convening power, and by providing a solid evidence base to help them make informed decisions
about improving the accessibility and quality of infrastructure services. This includes, where appropriate, utilizing public-private
partnerships and other means to leverage private sector financing and expertise.

supported
Building modern, sustainable, and reliable infrastructure is critical for meeting the rising aspirations of billions of people around
(continued) the globe. A significant increase in infrastructure investments in developing countries is needed to achieve poverty reduction
and shared prosperity, reach the Sustainable Development Goals, and tackle climate change. To meet these goals, infrastructure

projects must follow rigorous environmental and social standards, and be fiscally sustainable.
203-1c: Whether these investments and services are commercial, in-kind, or pro bono engagements.
World Bank investment project financing is focused on the long term (five- to ten-year horizon) and supports a wide range of
activities, including capital-intensive investments, service delivery, credit and grant delivery, and institution building. Through its
high-quality rating in the capital markets, the World Bank is able to raise funds at favorable market terms and pass the savings on
to its borrowing members. The Bank’s investment project financing not only supplies borrowing countries with needed financing,
but also serves as a vehicle for sustained, global knowledge transfer and technical assistance. This includes support to analytical
and design work in the conceptual stages of project preparation, technical support and expertise (including in the areas of project
management and fiduciary and safeguards activities) during implementation, and institution building throughout the project.

The World Bank helps policymakers reach well-informed, evidence-based decisions that promote equity and inclusion, sustainable
macroeconomics, public sector transparency and efficiency, productivity, and financial sector deepening and stability—all
foundational elements for reducing poverty and promoting inclusive, sustainable economic growth. The Bank pursues its principal
goals by providing loans, expertise on development-related disciplines, and risk management products, and by coordinating
responses to regional and global challenges. The Bank’s financial resources are significant and equally valuable is its knowledge.
The Bank’s scale, range, and diversity lie at the core of its specialized role as a key contributor to global development knowledge.

203-2b: Significance of the indirect economic impacts in the context of external benchmarks and stakeholder
priorities, such as national and international standards, protocols, and policy agendas.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted in 2015, are 17 targets in areas such as health, gender,
jobs, and poverty reduction that are part of a comprehensive global agenda to end poverty in a single generation. The SDGs
were formulated with strong participation from the World Bank and are fully consistent with the Bank’s own twin goals to end
poverty and build shared prosperity in a sustainable manner. The World Bank helps catalyze the SDGs and the rest of the 2030
agenda through thought leadership, global convening, and country-level uptake. It is working with client countries to deliver on
the 2030 agenda through three critical areas—finance, data, and implementation—and by supporting country-led and country-
owned policies to attain the SDGs. Global efforts around the SDGs will guide the World Bank’s partnership efforts, especially with
institutions of the United Nations, through 2030.

GRI 204: PROCUREMENT PRACTICES
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic is material - Corporate Procurement: The World Bank’s supply chain impacts are potentially the largest of its
sustainability effects, with annual purchasing of the Bank topping $1.6 billion. Supply chain was also identified as a key impact area by stakeholders, including
Sustainable & Impact investors.
Operational Procurement: Through Investment Project Financing, the World Bank finances between $15 billion to $24 billion worth of Operations Procurements
annually, in over 130 borrowing countries. This creates a material contribution to global development outcomes.
ECONOMIC DISCLOSURES • Procurement Practices

103-1b: The Boundary for the material topic(s) - This topic is material to both the World Bank’s corporate and operational boundaries.
103-1c: Any specific limitation regarding the Boundary of the topic(s) - Corporate Procurement: In certain cases, management of the impacts by tier 2
suppliers, and those further down the supply chain, may not be feasible due to unavailable information. The Bank will continue to work with prime suppliers of
major contracts to reduce the impacts of their supply chains.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - Corporate Procurement: The World Bank Group Corporate Procurement unit
is responsible for coordinating and overseeing the sourcing strategy, selection, and contract execution for Bank offices around the globe, including adherence to
the Bank’s policies on socially and environmentally-responsible corporate procurement policies. For lower-value procurement in country offices, responsibility for
purchases sits with the country office management, with oversight provided by the corporate procurement unit. Around 60 percent of purchases of goods and
services occurs in the World Bank Group’s headquarters, in Washington, DC, with the other 40 percent divided among the World Bank Group’s country offices.
Many of the impacts from the procurement of goods and services are not directly caused by the World Bank Group but occur as a result of the Bank Group’s
business relationship with suppliers. To mitigate potential impacts, the Bank Group identifies major impacts in each purchasing category, and uses mandatory
specifications, evaluation criteria, and contract management to reduce the indirect impact of goods and services delivered to the Bank Group. Major corporate
material purchases (including office construction and renovations, paper, computers, and furniture) are made with environmental life-cycle assessments in mind and
incorporate mandatory environmental specifications as well as evaluation criteria to reward sustainability best practice.
A sustainability framework for corporate procurement is under development to manage the sustainability impacts of Bank Group purchases. Portions of
the framework are already being applied—major purchases with contract values over $1 million must address the sustainability impacts of the purchase in
presentations to governance committees comprised of senior management.
Operational Procurement: Operations Procurements arise from the implementation of international development projects financed by the World Bank. Finance is
provided to Borrowers (Bank clients) through Investment Project Financing (IPF). In Operations Procurement the Borrower is the Buyer, not the Bank. However, the
Borrower is required to follow the Bank’s Operations Procurement rules when tendering, letting, and implementing these contracts. These rules are split into two
types: the Bank’s previous Procurement Guidelines (for Goods, Works and Non-Consulting Services) and Consultant Guidelines (for the selection and employment of
Consultants) and the new Procurement Framework (introduced July 1, 2016).
Operations Procurement opportunities are overseen by the World Bank, mainly through the Bank’s regional teams, or its global practice units. As projects arise they
are allocated to a Task Leader (TL), usually based in the country that is responsible for implementing the project. In fulfilling this function, the Bank takes a risk-
based approach. The main types of Operations Procurements financed by the Bank include:
31
• Highly complex infrastructure, e.g., railways, power stations, water treatment plants;
• Consultancy services, e.g., engineering design and supervision, tax collection advice, research and development;
• Major plant and equipment, e.g., generators, wind turbines, pumps, rail stock;
• Information technology, e.g., computers, mobile phone networks;
• Non-consulting services, e.g., aerial surveying, cartography, site investigations; and
• Critical supplies, e.g., emergency medical supplies, shelters, food.

Social and Environmental Policies − When the Bank provides governments with financing to invest in projects-such as building a road, connecting people to
electricity, or treating waste water - it aims to ensure that the people and the environment are protected from potential adverse impacts. The Bank does this through
policies that identify, avoid, and minimize harm to people and the environment. These policies require the borrowing governments to address certain environmental
and social risks in order to receive World Bank support for investment projects.
Safeguard Policies − The current environmental and social policies of the Bank are known as the Safeguard Policies, the mechanism for addressing environmental
and social issues in Bank-supported project design, implementation, and operation. The policies provide a framework for consultation with communities and for
public disclosure. Examples of these requirements include conducting environmental and social impact assessments, consulting with affected communities about
potential project impacts, and restoring the livelihoods of displaced people.
Environmental and Social Framework − In August 2016, the World Bank adopted a new set of environment and social policies called the Environmental and Social
Framework (ESF). Preparations to implement the ESF are underway, with plans for launch on October 1, 2018. The ESF will incrementally replace the Safeguard
Policies; the two will operate in parallel for about seven years to govern projects approved before and after the date the ESF starts to be applied.
103-2b: A statement of the purpose of the management approach for each topic - Corporate Procurement: The purpose of the management approach
for corporate procurement practices is to enhance positive impacts of the World Bank’s purchases where possible, and to avoid and then mitigate negative impacts
where required.
Operational Procurement: Procurement in Investment Project Financing operations supports borrowers in achieving value for money with integrity in delivering
sustainable development.
103-2c: A description of the following, if the management approach for each topic includes that component: i. Policies; ii. Commitments; iii.
Goals and targets; iv. Responsibilities; v. Resources; vi. Grievance mechanisms; vii. Specific actions, such as processes, projects, programs and
initiatives - Corporate Procurement: In April 2018, the World Bank Group publicly committed to double its procurement with women-owned businesses providing
services to the Bank’s global offices by 2023. Responsibility for designing the sustainability framework falls with the corporate procurement unit. Responsibility for
ensuring major purchases address sustainability impacts falls with either the Corporate Procurement Committee (for purchases more than $1 million and less than
$5 million) or the World Bank Group Procurement Committee (for purchases more than $5 million).
The Corporate Procurement unit has assigned a Sustainability Manager to help design and implement the sustainability framework and work with corporate
procurement as well as internal business clients to mainstream these efforts into the corporate procurement process.
Operational Procurement: Operations Procurement is controlled through the World Bank’s Procurement Framework (and other Operations policies including the
Bank’s Environmental and Social Policies through the legal agreement for the Loan):

• Procurement policy for Investment Project Financing (IPF) and other operational matters;
• Procurement directive;
• Procurement procedure;
• Procurement regulations for IPF borrowers; and
• Guidance, including a specific guide on sustainable procurement.

Project specific commitments, goals, and targets are set and agreed on by the borrower and the Bank (reflecting requirements of Bank Operations policies).
Operations Procurement responsibilities are defined in the Bank’s Procurement directive. For specific projects, Operations Procurement is overseen by the World
Bank, mainly through the Bank’s regional teams, or its global practice units. As projects arise, they are allocated to a Task Team Leader, usually based in the country
that is responsible for implementing the project. The Task Team Leader is supported by a Task Team comprising subject matter experts including procurement
specialists, environmental specialists, social specialists, etc.
Operations Procurement grievance mechanisms are explained in the Bank’s guide, “Procurement-Related Complaints.” For integrity matters, the process is governed
by the Bank’s sanctions framework and anti-corruption guidelines.
Specific actions include enhancements to the Bank’s Operations Procurement standard bidding documents to include additional criteria on Environmental, Health &
Safety, and Social matters, including, among others, enhancements to the prevention of gender-based violence. The Bank has also provided seminars and webinars
on Environmental, Health & Safety, and Social matters, and on October 1, 2018, the Bank will launch its new Environmental and Social Framework including, among
others, assessment and management of environmental and social risks and impacts, labor and working conditions, resource efficiency, and pollution prevention and
management.
103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s) - Corporate Procurement: Corporate Procurement partnered
with Facilities Management in reviewing main categories to align the Bank’s sourcing strategy, selection, and contract execution with those of leading companies
working to minimize environmental impact. Assessments of major corporate material purchases (including office construction and renovations, paper, computers,
and furniture) are being conducted to strengthen and mandate environmental specifications. The World Bank Group Procurement Committee of senior managers
reviews all planned procurement valued above $5 million to ensure that socially and environmentally responsible criteria are present from the project’s outset.
Operational Procurement: All Operations Procurements are subject to assurance mechanisms to ensure that Bank Operations policies have been met. This is applied
using a risk-based approach.
Higher risk and/or value operations procurements are subject to prior review at key stages of the procurement process by accredited Bank specialists who verify
compliance. These procurements may only progress to the next process stage once a clearance has been given by an accredited Bank specialist and the Task Team
Leader has issued a “no objection.” For procurements not subject to prior review (lower risk and/or value), a post review is undertaken; this is an ex-ante review
undertaken on a minimum 10 percent sampling basis (see Procurement Procedure).
Very high value and/or risk procurements are also overseen by the Bank’s Operations Procurement Review Committee (OPRC; see Procurement Procedure), chaired
by the Bank’s Operations Chief Procurement Officer. This committee reviews all complex procurements at key stages on a prior review basis.
Operations Procurement practices are also audited by the Bank’s Internal Audit Department (IAD) and by the Bank’s external auditors. The Bank’s Independent
Evaluation Group (IEG) also periodically reviews Operations Procurement’s performance.

Corporate Procurement: The World Bank Group is refining its approach to local vendor screening, leveraging the newly established
category management and electronic tendering system. Commodity segmentation has been completed, and the identification and
inclusion of local criteria in the screening and evaluation process is under way. A new eProcurement system capable of tracking
spend with local suppliers will begin to be implemented in late 2018 and will be reported on in future publications.
Operations Procurement: Seventy-seven percent of Operations Procurement was from suppliers registered in borrower countries in
fiscal year 2018, totaling $7,414 million out of $9,588 million.
204-1b: The organization’s geographical definition of ‘local’.
Corporate Procurement: The World Bank currently uses in-country vendors as the definition of “local.” If the office address for the
vendor in the Bank system is in the country where the service occurs, then it is considered local and the assumption is made that
it is employing and conducting business locally.
Operations Procurement: “Local” is defined as a procurement supplied by a supplier registered in the borrower country.
204-1c: The definition used for ‘significant locations of operation’.
Corporate Procurement: For the Bank’s corporate procurement, significant locations of operation include World Bank offices
located in Washington, DC as well as field offices with occupancy of more than 100 employees.
Operations Procurement: Significant locations are defined as any country that borrows Investment Project Financing from the
World Bank.

GRI 205: ANTI-CORRUPTION
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - The World Bank Group considers corruption a major challenge to its twin goals of ending
extreme poverty by 2030 and boosting shared prosperity for the poorest 40 percent of people in developing countries. In addition, reducing corruption is at the
heart of the Sustainable Development Goals and achieving the ambitious targets set for Financing for Development. It is a priority for the World Bank Group and
many of its partners. The World Bank Group has included Governance and Institutions as a theme in IDA18 in order to focus global attention on the issue.
World Bank Group operations across sectors systematically incorporate governance and anticorruption measures into project design. The objective is to avoid/
mitigate corruption and fiduciary risks and ensure that development funds are used for their intended purposes.
ECONOMIC DISCLOSURES • Anti-Corruption

Following the global Anti-Corruption Summit in May 2016, the World Bank Group reaffirmed its commitment to confront corruption as a core development issue
wherever it exists and to support integrity in public sector institutions. The World Bank Group also agreed to:
• Build the capacity of country clients to deliver on their commitments to enhance transparency and reduce corruption;
• Enhance its support for implementation of anti-money laundering requirements and for the recovery of stolen assets; and
• Extend its work on tax reform, illicit financial flows, procurement reform, and preventing corrupt companies from winning public contracts.
The World Bank Group participates in a number of collective action initiatives at the regional and global levels, including:
• Leadership in creating international transparency standards (Global Initiative on Financial Transparency, Open Contracting Standard, Asset Disclosure Standards),
and support for the implementation of open government (through support for the Open Government Partnership);
• Active assistance in the implementation of transparency and accountability efforts such as the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, Publish What You Pay,
Fisheries Transparency, and Anti-Money Laundering rules;
• Engagement and active support for international alliances and regional anti-corruption forums, such as the International Corruption Hunters Alliance and Latin
America Regional Parliamentary Network; and
• Engagement in international fora on anti-corruption, including the G20 Anti-Corruption Working Group, the Financial Accountability Task Force, and the OECD

The World Bank Group harmonized investigative procedures and definitions of sanctionable practices (including corruption) with the
African Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the Inter-
American Development Bank. Firms and individuals who are blacklisted by the World Bank Group must meet specific conditions,
such as establishing and implementing an effective corporate compliance program or improving an existing program before they
are again eligible to bid on World Bank Group-funded projects. These conditions are based on the Integrity Compliance Guidelines.
At the end of fiscal year 2018, 328 entities had been sanctioned with such conditions. In fiscal year 2018, the Integrity Compliance
Office notified 59 newly debarred entities of their conditions for release, and 15 entities met their conditions for release. For

computers, laptops, and monitors are made of recycled input materials. The percentage of recycled components in technology purchases
is not tracked.
GRI 302: ENERGY
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - Energy is a key input to the World Bank’s business operations. The purchase and use of energy
can have various impacts because of the extraction of materials from the earth’s crust and the production of persistent toxic emissions from the combustion of fuels.
Combustion of fossil fuels can result in severe health consequences and affects the expense-to-business revenue ratio. Stakeholders, which include Sustainable &
Impact investors, consider energy an important impact from the Bank’s internal business.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The World Bank manages its energy use carefully by tracking use in each owned
facility. Quarterly tracking of the Bank’s energy use is evaluated by the Director of Global Corporate Solutions. Energy use is evaluated as an absolute figure and on
an intensity basis to determine progress. Responsibility for increasing the energy efficiency of the Washington, DC, headquarters campus, with the goal of bringing
all owned facilities to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) minimum requirements, falls with the Senior Project Manager in the Bank’s Corporate
Real Estate unit.

GRI 303: WATER
Disclosure 103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - Water security is among the top global risks in terms of development impact. The
world will not be able to overcome the sustainable development challenges of the 21st century—including human development, livable cities, climate change, food
security, and energy security—without improving management of water resources and ensuring access to reliable water and sanitation services. Water was identified
as a key impact by stakeholders, including Sustainable & Impact Investors.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - Quarterly evaluation of the use of water, like other utilities, is conducted by
the Director of Global Corporate Solutions. Water use is evaluated both as an absolute figure and on an intensity basis to determine progress. Responsibility for
increasing the water efficiency of the Washington, DC campus, with the goal of bringing all owned facilities to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) minimum requirements, falls with the manager in the Bank’s Corporate Real Estate unit.

303-3 Water 303-3a: Total water withdrawal from all areas in megaliters, and a breakdown of this total by source
withdrawal
Of the total 382.54 megaliters of water usage globally in fiscal year 2017, 187.12 megaliters of municipal water was used in the
Washington, DC offices, primarily for domestic and drinking water purposes. Offices outside the U.S. reported a total of 195.42
megaliters of water used.
Water Usage (megaliters) FY17 FY16 FY15
US facilities 187.1 193.7 0.87
Country office facilities 195.4 144.0 521,150
ENVIRONMENTAL DISCLOSURES • Emissions

In fiscal year 2017, 80 percent of the global portfolio and in 2016, 78 percent of the global portfolio reported water data. No
estimations are calculated for offices not reporting water usage. With an increased response rate each year it is expected that the total
global water usage will increase.
The Washington, DC offices use municipal water supply from the Potomac watershed. No surface water, groundwater, rainwater
collected by the organization, or wastewater from other organizations was used in the Washington, DC offices in fiscal year 2017.
The source of withdrawal is not available for offices outside of the US, as this information is not currently collected. The Bank is building
systems to collect this information.
Water use is based on utility bills from the local water utility, DC Water, in Washington, DC, and from utility bills or meters in those non-
U.S. offices that can report.
GRI 305: EMISSIONS
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - Addressing climate change is part of the World Bank’s core mission of helping countries end
extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity. Climate change threatens to erode development gains around the world—and its effects are greatest on the poorest
and most vulnerable countries, which are the World Bank’s clients.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - As a demonstration of its corporate commitment to addressing climate change,
the Bank continues to deepen its efforts to measure, reduce, offset, and report its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with its global internal operations,
including its facilities, key meetings, and corporate air travel. The Bank has measured the GHG emissions from its facilities in Washington, DC since 2005 and globally
since 2007. Emissions are calculated in accordance with the World Resources Institute and World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s GHG Protocol,
with additional information on proxies, emissions factors, and the complete boundary available in the annually updated World Bank Group’s Inventory Management
Plan. A third party regularly verifies the Inventory Management Plan and the GHG inventory to ensure they meet international best practices.
45
initiatives - The World Bank surpassed its GHG emissions target of reducing facilities-based emissions by 10 percent between 2010–17 and aims to introduce a
new target in the coming year.

GRI 306: EFFLUENTS AND WASTE
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - The World Bank views reducing effluent and waste production as a material aspect because of
the possible negative environmental impacts, which include the release of persistent toxic chemicals through waste disposed of in landfills and through incineration.
World Bank stakeholders have also raised waste management as an important corporate impact.
Bank Group: The International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), and the International Centre for Settlement of
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The Bank has worked to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills through a
combination of source reduction, reuse, and recycling. Minimizing the amount of material brought into Bank facilities is the first way the Bank manages the amount
of waste created. Avoiding unnecessary packaging for purchased items, including encouraging minimum purchase thresholds for office supplies, is one way the Bank
accomplishes this. Another way is by mandating that large purchases from vendors, such as the Bank’s latest computer monitor purchase, be delivered in bulk instead
of individually packaged. In fiscal year 2018, the Bank continued to pursue efficiencies in the standardization of waste management in its headquarters facilities.

103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - As a knowledge organization, the World Bank’s success depends on the contributions
of its staff. World Bank staff members come from over 170 countries—their diversity and global reach stands out among international financial institutions
and other development organizations. Bank staff include economists, educators, environmental scientists, financial analysts, foresters, agronomists, engineers,
information technology specialists, social scientists, and so on, and they offer clients a unique combination of global expertise and local knowledge. To capitalize
on these comparative advantages requires an understanding of where the business is headed, and the skills mix required, coupled with the ability to identify,
grow, and deploy talent in a proactive and deliberate way, as envisioned under the fiscal year 2017-19 People Strategy (see: https://www.slideshare.net/
SergioMartnezlvarez/wbg-people-strategy).
Stakeholders, including potential employees, shareholders (the Boards), as well as Sustainable & Impact investors, recognize that the way the Bank manages staff, its
most valuable resource, is highly relevant to its business impact.

staff numbers provided in this GRI Index pertain to IBRD and IDA staff only.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The fiscal year 2017-19 People Strategy establishes people management
as a shared accountability between executive leadership, the Human Resources Vice Presidency (HR), managers, and staff. It sets out a three-year roadmap
of HR programs and priorities focused on achieving the business objectives outlined in the Forward Look (see: http://pubdocs.worldbank.org/
en/545241485963738230/DC2016-0008.pdf). The Bank’s Human Resources Vice Presidency provides leading-edge products and services in line with the
strategy in order to ensure that the Bank has the right people, in the right place, at the right time to offer the best development solutions to its clients.
Staffing levels and skills profiles are set by World Bank Group operations and the Board of Directors through an annual workforce planning exercise. To meet its
staffing needs, the Bank primarily builds its talent from within, through robust performance, talent, and career management processes, coupled with leading-edge
learning and development programs. Selective external recruitments add critical technical expertise and enhance the Bank’s diversity profile. To ensure that the right
talent can be deployed where it is needed most, the Bank offers a range of global mobility benefits designed to minimize the impact of moves on staff and their
families by allowing seamless acclimation to a new location, prioritizing the safety of staff and their families, and enabling staff to maintain connections to their
home country. Staff who serve in situations of fragility, violence, and conflict (FCV), including nonfamily locations, are eligible for additional benefits, including more
targeted career support, reflecting the growing importance of FCV to the Bank’s operations.
103-2b: A statement of the purpose of the management approach for each topic - To deliver on its mission, the World Bank strives to be the best place
to work in development by offering an Employment Value Proposition (EVP) that attracts, motivates, and retains world-class diverse talent with the critical skills,
experiences, mindsets, and behaviors needed to effectively respond to complex and constantly evolving client needs.

initiatives.
Supporting a positive and respectful work environment not only assists the World Bank in attracting and retaining the world’s top talent, it allows the workforce to
be more productive.
Policy Framework: The World Bank’s employment policies are articulated in its Staff Manual, which is established by the institution and periodically reviewed and
revised to ensure relevance and suitability for both staff and the business. The Manual includes the principles of staff employment and general obligations of the
Bank and staff, as well as policies governing core human resource processes. Policies are supported by procedures that outline the approach to implementation.
Values: The World Bank recognizes the importance of a positive organizational culture in attracting, retaining, and motivating staff to contribute their best in pursuit
of the mission. Organizational culture is built on the foundation of a shared set of values, and in fiscal year 2018, the Bank refreshed its values statement to reflect
the behaviors agreed upon by staff and management to be most critical in driving the organization’s performance and fostering a healthy work environment. The
revised core values—impact, integrity, respect, teamwork, and innovation—will be brought to life by embedding them into core HR processes, from recruitment to
performance and talent management.
SOCIAL DISCLOSURES
Health & Safety: Promoting the health, safety, and wellbeing of staff is one of the focus areas of the fiscal year 2017-19 People Strategy. In this area, key highlights
include: (1) developing a phased, five-year strategy to enhance the culture of health; (2) improving pre-deployment health and resiliency briefings for relocating staff;
and (3) enhancing outreach and remote capacity for staff in non-US offices, particularly in FCV, improving occupational health and safety, and so on.
Diversity: The World Bank measures the effectiveness of its efforts through Diversity and Inclusion Compacts, which establish both diversity and inclusion targets
and identify specific actions to achieve the targets. The diversity targets include parity in management by gender and country part (Part I versus Part II—roughly
equivalent to developed and developing countries, respectively), as well as by gender among full-time staff at professional grades (grade GF+) in non-managerial
roles. An additional institutional target is 12.5 percent for Sub-Saharan African (SSA) and Caribbean (CR) nationals among full-time staff at professional grades
(grade GF+). Inclusion targets are derived from staff responses on the annual engagement survey, which includes a set of questions comprising the Inclusion Index.
The World Bank Compact, which is signed by the President and his senior team, is cascaded through all vice-presidential units.
Addressing staff concerns: Due to its immunities from most national courts, the Bank provides staff a comprehensive staff manual detailing employment policy
and a robust Internal Justice Services (IJS) to address and resolve workplace issues. The IJS is a set of independent, yet interconnected, internal workplace dispute
settlement mechanisms made available to all current and former Bank staff. The IJS ensures that staff, irrespective of their location, grade level, nationality, or
gender, have a wide range of both informal and formal mechanisms to choose from to resolve workplace concerns in a fair, impartial, and transparent manner. These
services encourage collaboration among staff, provide space for the effective management of conflict, and increase the Bank’s capacity to build and retain a globally
representative workforce.
103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s) - The Bank’s Human Resources Vice Presidency monitors
and reports on implementation of the People Strategy through regular engagements with the Board and senior management. A People Strategy Scorecard tracks
progress against a set of Key Performance Indicators that align with the priorities of the three-year strategy, and the Corporate Scorecard (http://scorecard.
worldbank.org/) includes several talent management indicators. Regular staff engagement surveys provide crucial input on the mood of the organization and
issues for management to tackle. Periodic internal audits of key HR processes identify areas for improvement and result in follow-up action plans that address
highlighted findings.

health services medical doctors, Health and Safety professionals, clinical psychologists, and nurses. As an international organization recruiting from
(continued) across the globe, the World Bank Group requires its professional staff to have appropriate professional qualifications from recognized
academic institutions. Staff with clinical functions are required to have active professional registration in the countries where they
are performing their clinical duties. The World Bank Group also provides financial support to its professional staff for participation in
Continuing Professional Education programs and maintenance of professional accreditation.
The Health Services Department team is supported by the Facilities team, Corporate Security, and Fire and Safety teams.
The World Bank Occupational Health and Safety Committee, which reports to Management, is tasked with developing, implementing,
and overseeing an occupational health and safety management system that applies to Bank employees worldwide. The occupational
health and safety management system being implemented by the Committee is based on ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety
Management Systems).
All staff have access to the Health Services Department and its services. Strict medical confidentiality is maintained in all dealings with
staff, ensuring protection of their medical records and personal health related information. A specific Staff Rule has been published
to ensure and guide the protection of confidential information: Staff Rule 2.02—Confidentiality of Medical Information and Medical

(continued) full-time staff at professional grades (grade GF+) in non-managerial roles. An additional institutional target is 12.5 percent for Sub-
Saharan African (SSA) and Caribbean (CR) nationals among full-time staff at professional grades (grade GF+). Inclusion targets are
derived from staff responses on the annual engagement survey, which includes a set of questions comprising the Inclusion Index.
The World Bank Compact, which is signed by the President and his senior team, is cascaded through all Bank Vice-Presidential Units.
Progress against the Compact targets and actions are reported monthly and reviewed quarterly. In addition to the Compacts, actions to
improve staff perceptions on the engagement survey, including the Inclusion Index, are developed and tracked at the World Bank and
Vice-presidential unit level.
In fiscal year 2018, nationals of Part II countries accounted for 43 percent of staff in management positions. Women accounted for 41
percent of staff in management positions, and 45 percent of full-time staff at professional grades (grade GF+) in technical positions.
SSA and CR nationals represent 13 percent of full-time staff at professional grades (grade GF+).

405-2 Ratio of To recruit and retain highly qualified staff, the World Bank has developed a compensation and benefits system designed to be
basic salary and internationally competitive, reward performance, and consider the special needs of a multinational and largely expatriate staff. The
remuneration of Executive Directors annually review the staff salary structure and, if warranted, the salary structure is adjusted based on a Board-
women to men approved methodology that entails comparison with salaries paid by private financial and industrial firms and by representative
public-sector agencies in the U.S. market. The salary structure is reported for job positions for Washington, DC staff, which comprises
almost 60 percent of total staff. For staff in offices outside the United States, compensation programs are developed based on local

market practices consisting of private sector firms, and representative quasi-public and nonprofit organizations. The grading system and
benchmark job positions in country offices follow the same framework as in Washington, DC. Globally, World Bank salary structures do
not differentiate by gender. Remuneration of executive management, Executive Directors, and staff are disclosed with the World Bank
Annual Report. For more information, see www.worldbank.org/en/about/annual-report.
In fiscal year 2017, the World Bank Group Development Research Group, in collaboration with the Gender Cross Cutting Solution Area
and Human Resources, completed a landmark study: “Compensation, Diversity and Inclusion at the World Bank Group.” This
study leveraged 25+ years of HR data to explore the issue of pay parity among World Bank Group populations, including by gender.
Key results included the observation that the World Bank Group has an aggregate salary gap between genders, but that the gap has
decreased significantly over the 25+ years of the analysis. The aggregate salary gap is mainly caused by the gender composition of
different grades at entry. In fiscal year 2018, follow-up actions were put in place, including the biannual production of a report that HR
and managers use to address compensation outliers and more closely monitor salary parity upon entry to the institution. Additionally,
the World Bank Group examined a standard indicator to monitor pay parity by gender and grade level and aims to include this in future
reports.

Knowledge Management unit of the Development Economics Vice Presidency, acts as an enabler and accelerator for learning across the World Bank Group, including
IBRD, IDA, IFC, and MIGA. The team serves as a central pedagogical resource and learning ecosystem for seven key learning programs: Operations, Leadership,
Business Skills, IT skills, Technical, Corporate, and Mandatory. Like many development organizations, the Bank uses learning as a strategic tool to help staff and
clients accelerate impact and deliver results, and it is actively working to build a culture of learning across the organization. The OLC is already providing tremendous
opportunities for staff and client learning on key development topics and enabling practitioners to learn from each other’s successes and failures, as well as from the
vast tacit knowledge that organizations like the Bank generate through operations.
103-2b: A statement of the purpose of the management approach for each topic - The purpose of the management approach is to enhance World Bank
Group-wide technical skills and knowledge, strengthen problem-solving skills, and foster innovation to attain the Bank Group’s goals efficiently and creatively.
103-2c: A description of the following, if the management approach for each topic includes that component: i. Policies; ii. Commitments;
iii. Goals and targets; iv. Responsibilities; v. Resources; vi. Grievance mechanisms; vii. Specific actions, such as processes, projects, programs
and initiatives - The World Bank is dedicated to building a world-class learning organization where learning, performance, and career development go hand in
hand. While the onus is on staff to be proactive in their learning, managers are accountable for supporting the learning of their staff. Through the World Bank’s
performance evaluation process and career conversations, staff and managers work together on staff development objectives and career goals.
Strategically selecting appropriate learning activities is a key part of this process. Staff can choose from a wide range of internal learning activities available through
the Open Learning Campus (OLC) or from external learning providers. All formal learning opportunities (and some on-the-job learning) can be explored through the
World Bank’s catalog of learning on the OLC. Here staff enroll for courses, track progress, and get credit and certifications for their work. The OLC is the first stop for
staff looking for learning that enhances skills for their current role or help meeting longer-term career goals.

Funding for formal Staff Learning is provided in the overall resource envelope of every Bank Vice Presidential Unit and may be reallocated down to the Global
Practice, departmental, or other level. Each year, the minimum amount to be set aside for Staff Learning per Vice Presidential Unit is communicated through the
indicative expenditure directions, upon recommendation of the Learning Steering Group. The minimum amount is calculated based on two components: a minimum
of five days on average that staff are expected to dedicate to formal Staff Learning, and an amount of variable budget available to support staff on activities
calculated on a headcount basis.
Every Vice Presidential Unit has the autonomy to allocate additional resources to Staff Learning above the required minimum. Within the resource envelope, Vice
Presidential Units may decide to develop rules for expenditures for external learning. In some cases, demand for external learning may be more so than in other units

due to the nature of the unit’s business, that is, professional certifications to maintain existing qualifications required by a respective profession.
103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s).
All learning in the OLC is evaluated for scale and impact. On the staff side, the World Bank evaluates all classes entered in OLC that are equal to or greater than
one day. All classes that are less than a day can be selected by course catalog builders for evaluation as needed. On the client side, the Bank evaluates all learning
programs, and regularly informs senior management, including through three-year trend analyses, to guide programs, implement course corrections, and create
learning innovations. For more information about OLC, see www.olc.worldbank.org.
404-1 Average hours In fiscal year 2018, the World Bank delivered 1,548 courses and 61,824 days of learning. Fifty-four percent of the training days were

staff attended the equivalent of 50,668 days of training, averaging 4.1 days per staff member, with 3.9 in days taken by staff based in
offices outside the US and 4.3 days taken by Washington, DC-based staff.
In fiscal year 2018, investment in staff learning increased by 6 percent over fiscal year 2017 and by 13 percent from fiscal year 2016
levels. In addition, the World Bank invested $73.9 million in staff learning, of which 36 percent was spent on developing and delivering
learning activities, and 64 percent was spent to cover direct and indirect expenses for staff members to participate in learning (given
internally and/or from external providers), including staff time and other costs.

404-3 Percentage At least twice in a 12-month period, the performance of World Bank staff (excluding short-term appointees) is formally reviewed
of employees by their manager or designated supervisor. The evaluation is based on objectives agreed upon with the staff’s manager at the start
receiving regular of the fiscal year, aligned with the overall goals of the Vice-Presidential Unit, and assesses achievements against those objectives,
performance and strengths, and areas for improvement, as well as future development needs. The World Bank encourages ongoing feedback about the
career development staff member’s work program; this takes place throughout the performance year and includes a formal mid-year check-in. The annual
reviews conversation also touches on plans for the upcoming performance cycle and training needs. The Performance Management Process is
outlined in the Staff Manual 5.03.

In fiscal year 2018, 96 percent of Bank staff completed fiscal year 2017 end-year evaluations, 74 percent of staff completed fiscal year
2018 objectives, and 96 percent of staff completed fiscal year 2018 midyear evaluations on time. During the fiscal year 2017 year-end
evaluations, 96 percent of women and 95 percent of men completed the regular performance evaluation process. During the 2018 mid-
year review, 89 percent of staff indicated they had a performance conversation with their supervisor; this included 89 percent of women
and 89 percent of men.
In addition to the regular performance evaluations, an annual development-focused talent review is undertaken by management to
give the organization a better understanding of the skills and aptitudes of staff, and, importantly, to identify next steps for the staff’s
professional development, including targeted learning programs, stretch assignments, or rotations to other business units, as well as
readiness to take on greater responsibilities.

GRI 406: NON-DISCRIMINATION
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic is material - The World Bank Group core values are impact, integrity, respect, teamwork, and innovation. World
Bank Group staff are strongly encouraged to work together in teams with openness and trust; empowering others and respecting differences; encouraging risk-
taking and responsibility; and enjoying both work and family, as detailed in the Code of Conduct.
Stakeholders, who include prospective employees, shareholders (the Boards), as well as Sustainable & Impact investors, recognize that the way the Bank manages
discrimination, ethical behavior, and adherence to corporate core values is highly relevant to its business impact.
103-1b: The Boundary for the material topic(s) - This topic is material within the Bank’s corporate boundary.
SOCIAL DISCLOSURES • Non-Discrimination
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - There is a mandatory e-learning training on the Code of Conduct for all new staff,
including consultants with contracts of more than 30 days. A summary of the Code of Conduct is available in nine languages. There is a separate Code of Conduct
for Board officials. Business partners are informed of ethics expectations through a separate document. Adherence to high ethical standards is specified in contracts
with employees, Board officials, and business partners. Section 1(c) of the Code for Board Officials requires them to sign the code document upon assuming duty and
deposit it with the Ethics Committee of the Board. Staff members are required to uphold World Bank Group Staff Rules as a condition of employment.
103-2b: A statement of the purpose of the management approach for each topic - The character of the diverse workforce of the World Bank Group—of
integrity, ethical behavior, and adherence to corporate values—is core to the success of the Bank Group’s goals to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity.
initiatives - Due to its immunities from most national courts, the Bank provides staff comprehensive grievance mechanisms to address and resolve workplace
issues through informal and formal services. These services encourage collaboration among staff, provide space for the effective management of conflict, and
increase the Bank’s capacity to build and retain a globally representative workforce.
Various offices within the Internal Justice Services (IJS) provide evaluations to staff who retain its services. These offices include Mediation Services (MEF), Peer
Review Services (PRS), and the Ethics and Business Conduct (EBC) Department. In fiscal year 2018, the evaluations and the input of stakeholders was examined as
part of a formal Metrics Review. The recommendations have been reviewed, and an implementation plan is being developed. In addition to the Metrics Review, the
IJS disseminated its first integrated IJS Annual Report in March 2018.
406-1 Incidents of In fiscal year 2018, EBC reviewed seven allegations of discrimination. These included alleged instances of discrimination based on race,
discrimination and nationality, religion/creed, and gender. None of these allegations resulted in a report of investigation or finding of misconduct, on par
corrective actions with 2017.
taken
EBC recognizes that discrimination can be hard to prove because of its nature, which is often covert and subtle, and because of the
“clear and convincing” standard of proof required of this and other serious allegations of misconduct, pursuant to the World Bank
Group’s Administrative Tribunal jurisprudence. EBC, therefore, is reviewing the process by which the Bank Group addresses alleged
discrimination to make it easier for staff members to successfully bring forward a claim of alleged discrimination, increase the
effectiveness of EBC reviews, and provide more support to potential victims.

GRI 408: CHILD LABOR
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - The World Bank recognizes that child labor is one of the most devastating consequences of
persistent poverty. Hazardous conditions faced by children in the workplace can seriously jeopardize their immediate health and safety, as well as their health status
later in life. This is particularly the case for children in hazardous work. Child labor is also associated with greater difficulties in entering and remaining in school and
learning effectively in the classroom. The educational and developmental toll associated with child labor, in turn, makes it much less likely that children are able to
successfully transition to gainful employment upon entering adulthood.
Stakeholders, who include potential employees, shareholders (the Boards), as well as Sustainable and Impact investors, recognize this topic to be relevant to the
Bank’s business impact.
103-1b: The Boundary for the material topic(s) - This topic is material in the World Bank’s operational boundary. The operational boundary is the project area
SOCIAL DISCLOSURES • Child Labor

of influence of a Bank-financed project.
The project area of influence is the area likely to be affected by the project, including all its ancillary aspects, such as power transmission corridors, pipelines,
canals, tunnels, relocation and access roads, borrow and disposal areas, and construction camps, as well as unplanned developments introduced by the project
(e.g., spontaneous settlement, logging, or shifting agriculture along access roads). The area of influence may include, for example, (a) the watershed within which
the project is located; (b) any affected estuary and coastal zone; (c) off-site areas required for resettlement or compensatory tracts; (d) the airshed (e.g., where
airborne pollution such as smoke or dust may enter or leave the area of influence; (e) migratory routes of humans, wildlife, or fish, particularly where they relate to
public health, economic activities, or environmental conservation; and (f) areas used for livelihood activities (hunting, fishing, grazing, gathering, agriculture, etc.) or
religious or ceremonial purposes of a customary nature.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The Bank classifies each proposed project into one of four safeguard categories
(A, B, C, or FI) depending on the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project and the nature and magnitude of its potential environmental and social impacts.
The borrower is responsible for any assessment required by the safeguard policies, with Bank staff providing advice on the application of the policies. Depending on
the type of project and its safeguard policy category, the Bank project design incorporates such issues as public consultation, environmental and social assessments,
Indigenous Peoples’ plans, and resettlement frameworks and/or resettlement action plans. Specific measures are developed and implemented during the project to
mitigate the risk. Compliance with these policies forms part of the legal agreements for Bank grants, credits, and loans.
All standard World Bank bidding documents contain a clause prohibiting the use of child or forced labor in contracts financed under any World Bank projects. Staff
working on Bank-supported operations are required to assess social issues, such as child labor, within the environmental and social aspects of the projects and
develop specific measures that would be implemented during the project to mitigate the risk.
67
Under the new Environmental and Social Framework (ESF), which will come into force in October of 2018, the Bank will classify all investment projects into one of
four classifications: High Risk, Substantial Risk, Moderate Risk, or Low Risk. In determining the appropriate risk classification, the Bank will take into account relevant
issues, such as the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project; the nature and magnitude of the potential environmental and social risks and impacts; and the
capacity and commitment of the Borrower (including any other entity responsible for the implementation of the project) to manage the environmental and social
risks and impacts in a manner consistent with the Environmental and Social Standards. More information on the ESF can be found at: http://worldbank.org/esf.
The ESF includes a standard on Labor and Working Conditions (ESS2). The objectives of ESS2 are:
• To promote safety and health at work;
• To promote the fair treatment and nondiscrimination of, and equal opportunity for project workers;
• To protect project workers, including vulnerable workers such as women, persons with disabilities, children (of working age, in accordance with this ESS), and
migrant workers, contracted workers, community workers, and primary supply workers, as appropriate;
• To prevent the use of all forms of forced labor and child labor (emphasis added);
• To support the principles of freedom of association and collective bargaining of project workers in a manner consistent with national law; and
• To provide project workers with accessible means to raise workplace concerns.
The specific ESS2 provision on Child Labor is the following:
1. A child under the minimum age established in accordance with this paragraph will not be employed or engaged in connection with the project. The labor
management procedures will specify the minimum age for employment or engagement in connection with the project, which will be the age of 14 unless
national law specifies a higher age.
2. A child over the minimum age and under the age of 18 may be employed or engaged in connection with the project only under the following specific conditions:
a. the work does not fall under paragraph [3] below;
b. an appropriate risk assessment is conducted prior to the work commencing; and
c. the borrower conducts regular monitoring of health, working conditions, hours of work, and the other requirements of this ESS.
3. A child over the minimum age and under the age of 18 will not be employed or engaged in connection with the project in a manner that is likely to be hazardous
or interfere with the child’s education or be harmful to the child’s health or physical, mental, spiritual, moral, or social development.
103-2b: A statement of the purpose of the management approach for each topic - The purpose of the management approach is to evaluate a project’s
potential environmental risks and impacts in its area of influence; examine project alternatives; identify ways of improving project selection, siting, planning, design,
and implementation by preventing, minimizing, mitigating, or compensating for adverse environmental and social impacts and enhancing positive impacts; and
include the process for mitigating and managing adverse environmental impacts throughout project implementation.
103-2c: A description of the following, if the management approach for each topic includes that component: i. Policies; ii. Commitments;
iii. Goals and targets; iv. Responsibilities; v. Resources; vi. Grievance mechanisms; vii. Specific actions, such as processes, projects, programs
and initiatives - In August 2016, the World Bank Board of Executive Directors approved a new Environmental and Social Framework for protecting people and
the environment in World Bank-financed investment projects, marking the end of a four-year review process that concluded in fiscal 2016. The World Bank is
implementing an intensive preparation and training period to prepare for the transition to the new framework in October 2018.

103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s) - The World Bank’s Independent Evaluation Group (IEG)
evaluates the development effectiveness of the World Bank Group. IEG’s work provides evaluative evidence to help the Bank Group deliver better services and
results to its clients. IEG does so by generating lessons from past experiences and accountability to shareholders and stakeholders at large. IEG is independent of the
management of the World Bank Group and reports directly to the Executive Board. More details can be found at http://ieg.worldbankgroup.org/.
The World Bank’s Internal Audit Vice Presidency (IAD) is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity that helps to improve World Bank Group
operations. It assists the institution in accomplishing its objectives by evaluating the effectiveness of World Bank Group governance, risk management, and control
processes. Furthermore, IAD advises management in developing control solutions and monitors the implementation of management’s corrective actions. IAD’s work
is carried out in accordance with the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) International Professional Practices Framework. More details can be found at http://www.
worldbank.org/en/about/unit/internal-audit-vice-presidency.
The Inspection Panel is an independent complaints mechanism for people and communities who believe that they have been, or are likely to be, adversely affected

by a World Bank-funded project. The Board of Executive Directors created the Inspection Panel in 1993 to ensure that people have access to an independent body to
express their concerns and seek recourse. The Panel is an impartial fact-finding body, independent from the World Bank management and staff, reporting directly to the
Board. The Inspection Panel process aims to promote accountability at the World Bank, give affected people a greater voice in activities supported by the World Bank
that affect their rights and interests, and foster redress when warranted. More details can be found at: http://ewebapps.worldbank.org/apps/ip/Pages/Home.

significant risk for
incidents of child
The Government of Uzbekistan has been criticized by the international community for using child and forced labor during the cotton
labor harvest. Currently, the Government of Uzbekistan is progressively reforming the cotton sector in line with its Development Strategy
for 2017-21, which calls for deepening structural reforms in the agricultural sector, optimizing cultivated areas, creating the favorable
conditions for the development of diversified farms, and deepening agroprocessing and value addition.
Third Party Monitoring, conducted by the International Labor Organization since 2015, finds that the systematic use of child labor in
Uzbekistan’s cotton harvest has come to an end, and that concrete measures to stop the use of forced labor have been taken.
408-1b: Operations and suppliers considered to have significant risk for incidents of child labor either in terms of: i.
type of operation (such as manufacturing plant) and supplier; ii. countries or geographic areas with operations and
suppliers considered at risk.
The World Bank has been actively supporting the diversification of agricultural production in Uzbekistan beyond cotton and wheat
into other high-value crops such as fruit and vegetables, and livestock. This support is clearly defined in the World Bank Group Country
Partnership Framework, which was approved in 2016. The World Bank-financed agriculture projects in Uzbekistan focus on improving
agricultural productivity, promoting sustainable management of land and water resources, increasing the efficiency of irrigation
infrastructure, and enhancing the economy’s competitiveness. This is also supported through analytical and advisory services.

significant risk for
incidents of child
In fiscal year 2018, the World Bank continued to ensure that at-risk projects, such as those in Uzbekistan, included measures to
labor prevent the occurrence of child or forced labor by beneficiaries of Bank-supported projects, and are covered by Third Party Monitoring
by the International Labor Organization (ILO). All at-risk projects have legal requirements in their financial agreements related to and
(continued) government compliance with national legislation that prohibits the use of child or forced labor; and implementation of a third-party
monitoring and a feedback mechanism that focuses on child or forced labor issues in connection with the project activities or within
project areas.
Third Party Monitoring, which started in 2015 and is conducted by the ILO, continued in 2018. The report, based on more than 3,000
unaccompanied and unannounced interviews with a representative sample of the country’s 2.6 million cotton pickers, finds that the
systematic use of child labor in Uzbekistan’s cotton harvest has come to an end, and that concrete measures to stop the use of forced
labor have been taken. It also shows that the country is making significant reforms on fundamental labor rights in the cotton fields. But
it did emphasize that education and health sector workers are still at risk of being called to pick cotton. Continued efforts are required
to fully eradicate forced labor and maintain the progress achieved on child labor.
Efforts undertaken by the Uzbekistan Government to fully eradicate forced labor are recognized by international development partners,
as evidenced by upgrading to Tier 2 Watch List by the Department of State Trafficking in Persons Report for 2017.
The World Bank and the ILO are continuing to cooperate on monitoring, awareness-raising activities, capacity building for National
Feedback Mechanisms, Labor Inspectorate, and assessing labor rights and working conditions in horticulture, livestock, and textile
sectors. The Bank is working on advancing policy dialogue on agricultural modernization strategy, creating employment opportunities
for women affected by cotton mechanization, and expanding monitoring social risks and the engagement of citizens.

GRI 411: INDIGENOUS PEOPLES
103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - Central to the World Bank’s mission of reducing poverty and boosting shared prosperity in
a sustainable manner is ensuring that the development process fully respects the dignity, human rights, economies, and cultures of Indigenous Peoples. The Bank
recognizes that the identities and cultures of Indigenous Peoples are inextricably linked to the lands on which they live and the natural resources on which they
depend. These distinct circumstances expose Indigenous Peoples to different types of risks and levels of impacts from development projects, including loss of
identity, culture, and customary livelihoods. Gender and intergenerational issues among Indigenous Peoples are also complex. As social groups with identities that
are often distinct from dominant groups in their national societies, Indigenous Peoples are frequently among the most marginalized and vulnerable segments of
the population. As a result, their economic, social, and legal status often limits their capacity to defend their interests in and rights to lands, territories, and other
SOCIAL DISCLOSURES • Indigenous Peoples

productive resources, or restricts their ability to participate in and benefit from development. At the same time, the Bank recognizes that Indigenous Peoples play a
vital role in sustainable development and that their rights are increasingly being addressed under both domestic and international law.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The World Bank safeguards policy on Indigenous Peoples, OP/BP 4.10, Indigenous
Peoples, underscores the need for borrowers and Bank staff to identify Indigenous Peoples, consult with them, and ensure that they participate in and benefit from
Bank-funded operations in a culturally appropriate way. It also emphasizes that adverse impacts on them are avoided or, where not feasible, minimized or mitigated.
For all projects that are proposed for World Bank financing and involve Indigenous Peoples, the Bank requires the borrower to engage in a process of free, prior, and
informed consultation. The Bank provides project financing only where there is broad community support to the project by the affected Indigenous Peoples.
103-3a: An explanation of how the organization evaluates the management approach(s) - The new Environmental and Social Framework advances
the World Bank’s existing Indigenous Peoples policy by including Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) and by addressing peoples in voluntary isolation,
and pastoralists. This provision is well harmonized with those of other international financial institutions. The safeguards review included a global dialogue and
engagement process with Indigenous Peoples that sought to incorporate Indigenous Peoples in the review and update of the World Bank’s Environmental and Social
Framework, as well as to strengthen World Bank support to and engagement with Indigenous Peoples, more generally. The consultations on the framework included
several dedicated Indigenous Peoples dialogue sessions, which yielded important results in terms of participation, information gathered, and the beginning of a
renewed and stronger relationship with Indigenous Peoples.

GRI 412: HUMAN RIGHTS

103-1a: An explanation of why the topic(s) is/are material - Human rights principles essential for sustainable development such as nondiscrimination,
meaningful consultation, effective public participation, property rights, accountability, transparency and good governance, are consistently applied in the World
SOCIAL DISCLOSURES • Human Rights
Bank’s work to end poverty and boost shared prosperity.

These principles are embedded in our recently board-approved (August 2016) Environmental and Social Framework, which protects people and the environment in World
Bank investment projects. As the ESF vision statement makes clear, social development and inclusion are critical for all the World Bank’s development interventions
and for achieving sustainable development for member countries. For the Bank, inclusion means empowering all people to participate in, and benefit from, the
development process. Inclusion encompasses policies to promote equality and non-discrimination by improving the access of all people, including the poor and
disadvantaged, to services and benefits such as education, health, social protection, infrastructure, affordable energy, employment, financial services, and productive
assets. Inclusion also embraces action to remove barriers against those who are often excluded from the development process, such as women, children, persons
with disabilities, and youth and minorities, and to ensure that the voices of all are heard. In this regard, the World Bank’s activities support the realization of human
rights expressed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Under the projects financed by the World Bank, in a manner consistent with its Articles of Agreement, the
Bank seeks to avoid adverse impacts, and will continue to support its member countries as they strive to progressively achieve their human rights commitments.
103-1b: The Boundary for the material topic(s) - This topic is material within the Bank’s operational boundary, the project area of influence for World Bank-
financed projects.
103-2a: An explanation of how the organization manages the topic(s) - The World Bank recognizes the importance of human rights principles in
development: transparency, accountability, non-discrimination, equality of opportunity, governance, empowerment, participation, and inclusion. These principles are
reflected in all projects the World Bank finances.
The Bank classifies each proposed project into one of four safeguard categories (A, B, C, or FI) depending on the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project
and the nature and magnitude of its potential environmental impacts. The borrower is responsible for any assessment required by the safeguard policies, with Bank
staff providing advice on the application of the policies. Depending on the type of project and its safeguard policy category, the Bank project design incorporates
such issues as public consultation, environmental and social assessments, Indigenous Peoples’ plans, and resettlement frameworks and/or resettlement action plans.
Compliance with these policies forms part of the legal agreements for Bank grants, credits, and loans.
Policies that may be triggered include: OP/BP 4.01, Environmental Assessment; OP/BP 4.04, Natural Habitats; OP 4.09, Pest Management; OP/BP 4.10, Indigenous
Peoples; OP/BP 4.11, Physical Cultural Resources; OP/BP 4.12, Involuntary Resettlement; OP 4.36, Forests; and OP/BP 4.37, Safety of Dams. In addition, the Bank
recognizes that gender issues are an important dimension of its poverty reduction, economic growth, human wellbeing, and development effectiveness agenda. OP/
BP 4.20 establishes a country-level, strategic approach to mainstreaming gender issues in Bank work. For more information on gender issues, see http://www.
worldbank.org/en/topic/gender.

Under the new Environmental and Social Framework (ESF), which will come into force in October 2018, the Bank will classify all investment projects into one of four
classifications: High Risk, Substantial Risk, Moderate Risk, or Low Risk. In determining the appropriate risk classification, the Bank will take into account relevant
issues, such as the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project; the nature and magnitude of the potential environmental and social risks and impacts; and the

In 2016, the World Bank issued a Directive on Addressing Risks and Impacts on Disadvantaged or Vulnerable Individuals or Groups with the purpose of establishing

poses specific risks and impacts to individuals or groups who, because of their particular circumstances, may be disadvantaged, the task team, through its

due diligence responsibilities, supports the borrower in the Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA) process, including in carrying out consultations, and
ascertains whether (1) the environmental and social assessment has properly identified the disadvantaged or vulnerable individuals or groups; and (2) appropriate
differentiated mitigation measures have been incorporated into project design and documented in relevant project material so that adverse impacts do not fall
disproportionately on the disadvantaged or vulnerable, and they are not disadvantaged in sharing any development benefits resulting from the project. The Directive

required to consult on environmental and social impacts and mitigation measures with the communities affected by the project. For meaningful consultations
between the borrower and project-affected groups and local non-governmental organizations, the borrower is required to provide relevant material in a timely
manner prior to consultation, in a form and language that are understandable and accessible to the groups being consulted. For projects with significant risks
(categories A and B), the Bank discloses the environmental and social assessment. The borrower is required to establish a project-level grievance redress mechanism
