| Summary: | The response to the GRI Indicators
presents a glimpse into the World Banks (also known as the
International Bank for Reconstruction and Development or
IBRD in the capital market) complex suite of activities.
Topics that are of interest to sustainable investment
communities, NGOs, and country clients determine materiality
for the purposes of this report. Reporting priorities are
determined annually based on the corporate priorities of the
given year and queries by the SRI community. Stakeholders
are also identified with the assistance of relevant
departments throughout the Bank. This Review encompasses
World Bank operations globally. The World Bank consists of
two agencies: IBRD and IDA (International Development
Agency). Except for the terms of lending to member
countries, the agencies are tightly integrated and work as a
single unit. Therefore, staff of the World Bank, are
considered ‘IBRD’ staff, even if they work on IDA funded
projects or for other donor-funded initiatives, through
hundreds of trust funds. Similarly, World Bank manages the
buildings that house staff that work on IBRD, IDA, MIGA, and
GEF projects. GRI indicators for EN apply primarily to
performance of Washington, D.C. facilities (which house 60
percent of World Bank staff) with country office data noted,
when relevant. |
