The World Bank 世界银行

The World Bank is not a “bank” in the common sense. It is one of the United Nations’ specialized agencies, and is made up of 184 member countries. These countries are jointly responsible for how the institution is financed and how its money is spent. Along with the rest of the development community, the World Bank centers its efforts on reaching the Millennium Development Goals, agreed to by UN members in 2000 and aimed at sustainable poverty reduction.

The "World Bank" is the name that has come to be used for the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). Together these organizations provide low-interest loans, interest-free credit, and grants to developing countries.

Some 10,000 development professionals from nearly every country in the world work in the World Bank’s Washington DC headquarters or in its 109 country offices.

世界银行从常识来讲其实不是银行。它是美国一个特殊的机构,有184个成员国组成。这些国家共同负责这个机构的资金,如何使用经费问题。连同其他发展集团,2000年联合国成员达成一致世界银行要把重点放在达到圆满发展和可持续减少贫困。
