Banga is on a global tour to several countries to learn about their priorities and concerns.
His call for a regenerated partnership resonated very well with President Adesina’s views. “It is more than financial. It’s more about how we work to optimize resources by engaging governments, the private sector and other stakeholders to deliver meaningful change.”
On 23 February, President Joe Biden announced Ajay Banga as the United States’ nominee for President of the World Bank Group.
The institution’s current president, David Malpass, recently announced his intention to step down by the end of June 2023.
