Financial Results - Overview

IBRD The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) lends to governments of middle-income and creditworthy low-income countries. IBRD is the original World Bank institution. It works closely with the rest of the World Bank Group to help developing countries reduce poverty, promote economic growth, and build prosperity.

IDA The International Development Association (IDA) provides interest-free loans — called credits — and grants to governments of the poorest countries. IDA complements the World Bank’s original lending arm—the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD). IBRD and IDA share the same staff and headquarters and evaluate projects with the same rigorous standards.

IFC The International Finance Corporation (IFC) is the largest global development institution focused exclusively on the private sector. We help developing countries achieve sustainable growth by financing investment, mobilizing capital in international financial markets, and providing advisory services to businesses and governments.

MIGA The Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) was created in 1988 to promote foreign direct investment into developing countries to support economic growth, reduce poverty, and improve people’s lives. MIGA fulfils this mandate by offering political risk insurance and credit enhancement products to investors and lenders.
