[BWP Alert] Submission to IDC inquiry into the World Bank Group

The Bretton Woods Project's submission to the International Development Committee's inquiry into the World Bank is available online. It covers:

- Effectiveness of the World Bank Group, including the International Finance Corporation, with specific critiques and recommendations on health, gender, energy, climate finance, and private sector development;
- Internal reform & new priorities: concerns around governance, transparency, conditionality, allocation, and the Bank's strategy;
- IDA replenishment: we recommend that the UK should not increase its dollar contribution to IDA in the current replenishment but should instead focus on achieving substantial reforms of the World Bank and IFC in key areas, and in radically improving the legitimacy, transparency and accountability of the institution.
