Results and Performance of the World Bank Group 2024: Managing Results in an Uncertain World

About This Work

Analyzes performance across World Bank Group institutions. Covering projects during COVID-19 and food/energy crises—when the Bank prioritized IDA countries and fragile contexts—the report shows how increased exposure to risky environments has affected outcomes. It identifies four key levers for stronger performance: better operational design, effective risk management, addressing client capacity challenges, and improved results monitoring.
