Independent Commission for Aid Impact, 2012Over the last five years DFID has contributed £5.1bn to the World Bank. The ICAI review considers the effectiveness of DFID’s engagement with the World Bank, focussing on the International Development Association (IDA), the part of the World Bank which supports the poorest countries. The report concludes that DFID engages effectively with the World Bank to influence priorities and improve effectiveness but some improvements could be made.
Overall assessment: Green-Amber (The programme meets most of the criteria for effectiveness and value for money and is performing well. Some improvements should be made.)
