As far as development is concerned, it's no longer an issue of having government to government assistance. $230 billion of private capital went to the developing world, eclipsing the $50 billion of official aid. International institutions have to change. And private institutions have to change in thinking not just of themselves but of leveraging their activities and their interests to work in partnership with the governments. 2017-02-08T18:06:24Z 2017-02-08T18:06:24Z 1997-02-03 Speech http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2015/10/25189993/address-bankers-club-james-d-wolfensohn-president http://hdl.handle.net/10986/26013 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Speech United Kingdom
