Analytic and Advisory Services
The Bank undertakes a broad range of analytic and advisory activities to support its development mission. Research by the Development Economics Vice Presidency (DEC) informs the Bank's work on board issues such as the environment, poverty, trade and globalization. Country clients benefit from a tailored program of economic and sector work (ESW) geared to their specific development challenges.
ESW examines a country's economic prospects, including, for example, its banking or its financial sectors, and trade, poverty, and social safety net issues. The Bank's diagnostic work is shared with clients and partners, and draws on theirs. The results often form the basis for assistance strategies,government investment programs, and projects supported by IBRD andIDA lending.
The Bank has established Advisory Services to provide information and
knowledge on numerous facets of the Bank's work, such environmentally and socially sustainable development, health, nutrition and population, the financial sector, and law and justice. The Advisory Services draw on the work of Thematic Groups, which are organized and coordinated by Bank staff, and focus on specific development topics.
Thematic Groups share lessons learned in order to improve the quality of Bank activities. Several groups have prepared toolkits for development practitioners.
Topics have included project design; management and monitoring; legal, financial, and procurement requirements; gender; food and nutrition; and resettlement safeguards.
