Abstract
The year 2021 marks the 30th anniversary of the partnership between the World Bank Group (WBG) and Mongolia (1991-2021). This Country Partnership Framework (CPF) covers the period of FY21-25 and is timed to align with the mandate and development program of the government after the June 2020 parliamentary elections. The CPF is anchored in Mongolia’s long-term development strategy, Mongolia Vision 2050, and aligned with the Guidelines on Economic and Social Development (2020-2025) and the Government Action Plan (2020-2024), adopted by the newly elected parliament. The CPF has been informed by the 2018 Mongolia Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) and other key analytical work including a 2020 Country Economic Memorandum (CEM), the CPS Completion and Learning Review (CLR), and two rounds of consultations and a client survey with stakeholders in Mongolia.

Publication Myanmar Country Partnership Framework for the Period of FY20-FY23(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2020-04-20)This Country Partnership Framework (CPF), which covers FY20–FY23, seeks to accompany Myanmar through a challenging and complex transition at a time when the COVID-19 pandemic is creating unprecedented uncertainty and vulnerability globally. This CPF reflects the WBG’s commitment to maintain engagement in Myanmar’s historic economic transition, but with a greater focus on inclusion, including in conflict-affected areas. The CPF program is selectively, but flexibly, defined and sequenced to leverage the WBG’s comparative advantage and optimize the impact of WBG engagement on inclusive development outcomes for Myanmar.Publication Country Partnership Framework for the Republic of Liberia for the Period FY19 - FY24(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2018-10-26)The Liberian economy is undergoing a process of structural transformation, as the dominanceof agriculture and mining gradually gives way to a rising services sector. Much of the Liberian economy is structured around foreign direct investment (FDI) and the development of private agricultural, mining, and forestry concessions. The Liberian economy showed signs of recovery in 2017-2018, amid significant fiscal and external imbalances. The medium-term outlook remains positive, assuming the new government maintains prudent macroeconomic policies, pursues a judicious borrowing policy, and implements planned structural reforms. The favorable medium-term growth outlook also assumes that sound macroeconomic management and structural reforms will strengthen investor confidence. The Government’s medium-term development strategy (July 2018-June 2023), the Pro-poor Agenda for Prosperity and Development (PAPD), is designed around the priorities set forth in President Weah’s inaugural speech and State of the Nation address: (i) combatting corruption; (ii) improving efficiency and accountability in the public sector; (iii) promoting honesty and transparency in the private sector; (iv) narrowing infrastructure gaps, especially in the southeast; and (v) creating jobs, especially for young workers. The Country Partnership Framework emphasizes the importance of shifting the focus of the WBG program from being infrastructure intensive under the previous CPS toward a more balanced approach with greater attention to education, agriculture, economic empowerment of women and youth, and maternal and child health. WBG will support smallholder commercialization and private-sector investment in agribusiness by fostering productive business linkages among smallholder farmers, selected agribusiness firms, and business-development services—with a special focus on constraints faced by women and youth.Publication Country Partnership Framework for Solomon Islands for the Period FY2018-FY2023(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2018-06-26)This country partnership framework (CPF) for Solomon Islands spans the period from July 1, 2017, to June 30, 2023 (FY2018-FY2023). It presents the World Bank Group’s (WBG) program of engagements over this period and a results framework against which anticipated outcomes will be evaluated. It builds on the results and lessons of Solomon Islands’ previous country partnership strategy (CPS), which covered the period between FY2013 and FY2017. This CPF is well aligned with the Solomon Islands Government’s (SIG’s) long-term development vision, the national development strategy 2016 to 2035: improving the social and economic livelihoods of all Solomon Islanders (NDS), and the thematic priorities emerging from the WBG’s Solomon Islands systematic country diagnostic (SCD), completed in June 2017. The main purpose of the CPF is to support Solomon Islands in enhancing its economic resilience through inclusive growth, while considering economic geography and state fragility. The CPF will selectively support Solomon Islands’ medium-term development plan (MTDP): 2016 to 2020 and incorporates key priorities of the SCD. The CPF is organized around three focus areas: (i) strengthening the foundations of well-being, (ii) promoting inclusive and sustainable growth, and (iii) managing uneven development.Publication Country Partnership Framework for the Central African Republic for the Period FY21-FY25(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2020-08-04)The WBG proposes a five-year strategy for CAR focused on a resilient and inclusive COVID-19 recovery amid an historic turn-around opportunity. The proposed program has been calibrated to fully address CAR’s fragility drivers. With women’s empowerment and digital development as cross-cutting priorities, the CPF is structured along two focus areas: Focus Area 1 - Human Capital and Connectivity to Boost Stabilization, Inclusion and Resilience, with direct support to the peace process; immediate social and health responses to COVID-19; sectoral engagements in health, education, energy, water and transport; and specific investments in the empowerment of women and girls. Focus Area 2 - Economic Management and Improved Governance to Build State Legitimacy and Foster Growth, with a strong program of reforms and targeted investments to strengthen public financial management (PFM) and debt management and transparency; support decentralization, increase domestic resource mobilization (DRM), and digitize the administration; and support the private sector.Publication Country Partnership Framework for the Republic of Senegal for the Period FY20-FY24(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2020-02-11)This five-year Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for Senegal lays out the World Bank Group (WBG) program for the FY20–FY24 period, which aims to support the country in its path towards achieving middle-income status by 2035.

Publication Women, Business and the Law 2024(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2024-03-04)Women, Business and the Law 2024 is the 10th in a series of annual studies measuring the enabling conditions that affect women’s economic opportunity in 190 economies. To present a more complete picture of the global environment that enables women’s socioeconomic participation, this year Women, Business and the Law introduces two new indicators—Safety and Childcare—and presents findings on the implementation gap between laws (de jure) and how they function in practice (de facto). This study presents three indexes: (1) legal frameworks, (2) supportive frameworks (policies, institutions, services, data, budget, and access to justice), and (3) expert opinions on women’s rights in practice in the areas measured. The study’s 10 indicators—Safety, Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Childcare, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension—are structured around the different stages of a woman’s working life. Findings from this new research can inform policy discussions to ensure women’s full and equal participation in the economy. The indicators build evidence of the critical relationship between legal gender equality and women’s employment and entrepreneurship. Data in Women, Business and the Law 2024 are current as of October 1, 2023.Publication Business Ready 2024(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2024-10-03)Business Ready (B-READY) is a new World Bank Group corporate flagship report that evaluates the business and investment climate worldwide. It replaces and improves upon the Doing Business project. B-READY provides a comprehensive data set and description of the factors that strengthen the private sector, not only by advancing the interests of individual firms but also by elevating the interests of workers, consumers, potential new enterprises, and the natural environment. This 2024 report introduces a new analytical framework that benchmarks economies based on three pillars: Regulatory Framework, Public Services, and Operational Efficiency. The analysis centers on 10 topics essential for private sector development that correspond to various stages of the life cycle of a firm. The report also offers insights into three cross-cutting themes that are relevant for modern economies: digital adoption, environmental sustainability, and gender. B-READY draws on a robust data collection process that includes specially tailored expert questionnaires and firm-level surveys. The 2024 report, which covers 50 economies, serves as the first in a series that will expand in geographical coverage and refine its methodology over time, supporting reform advocacy, policy guidance, and further analysis and research.Publication World Development Report 2024(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2024-08-01)Middle-income countries are in a race against time. Many of them have done well since the 1990s to escape low-income levels and eradicate extreme poverty, leading to the perception that the last three decades have been great for development. But the ambition of the more than 100 economies with incomes per capita between US$1,100 and US$14,000 is to reach high-income status within the next generation. When assessed against this goal, their record is discouraging. Since the 1970s, income per capita in the median middle-income country has stagnated at less than a tenth of the US level. With aging populations, growing protectionism, and escalating pressures to speed up the energy transition, today’s middle-income economies face ever more daunting odds. To become advanced economies despite the growing headwinds, they will have to make miracles. Drawing on the development experience and advances in economic analysis since the 1950s, World Development Report 2024 identifies pathways for developing economies to avoid the “middle-income trap.” It points to the need for not one but two transitions for those at the middle-income level: the first from investment to infusion and the second from infusion to innovation. Governments in lower-middle-income countries must drop the habit of repeating the same investment-driven strategies and work instead to infuse modern technologies and successful business processes from around the world into their economies. This requires reshaping large swaths of those economies into globally competitive suppliers of goods and services. Upper-middle-income countries that have mastered infusion can accelerate the shift to innovation—not just borrowing ideas from the global frontiers of technology but also beginning to push the frontiers outward. This requires restructuring enterprise, work, and energy use once again, with an even greater emphasis on economic freedom, social mobility, and political contestability. Neither transition is automatic. The handful of economies that made speedy transitions from middle- to high-income status have encouraged enterprise by disciplining powerful incumbents, developed talent by rewarding merit, and capitalized on crises to alter policies and institutions that no longer suit the purposes they were once designed to serve. Today’s middle-income countries will have to do the same.Publication World Bank Annual Report 2024(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2024-10-25)This annual report, which covers the period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, has been prepared by the Executive Directors of both the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA)—collectively known as the World Bank—in accordance with the respective bylaws of the two institutions. Ajay Banga, President of the World Bank Group and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors, has submitted this report, together with the accompanying administrative budgets and audited financial statements, to the Board of Governors.Publication Global Economic Prospects, January 2025(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-01-16)Global growth is expected to hold steady at 2.7 percent in 2025-26. However, the global economy appears to be settling at a low growth rate that will be insufficient to foster sustained economic development—with the possibility of further headwinds from heightened policy uncertainty and adverse trade policy shifts, geopolitical tensions, persistent inflation, and climate-related natural disasters. Against this backdrop, emerging market and developing economies are set to enter the second quarter of the twenty-first century with per capita incomes on a trajectory that implies substantially slower catch-up toward advanced-economy living standards than they previously experienced. Without course corrections, most low-income countries are unlikely to graduate to middle-income status by the middle of the century. Policy action at both global and national levels is needed to foster a more favorable external environment, enhance macroeconomic stability, reduce structural constraints, address the effects of climate change, and thus accelerate long-term growth and development.
