IDA Voting Power of Member Countries

Data as of Sep 30, 2024

Member countries are allocated votes at the time of membership and subsequently for additional subscriptions to capital. Votes are allocated differently in each organization.

Each member receives the votes it is allocated under IDA replenishments according to the rules established in each IDA replenishment resolution. Votes consist of subscription votes and

membership votes.

Latest information about voting power is available at http://www.worldbank.org/en/about/leadership/votingpowers

Important Note

We recommend users to adopt API service option only for datasets exceeding a million records. For other datasets, kindly use the JSON link available on the "Actions and Tools" section which enables extraction of all the records at once.

JavaScript makes it super simple to fetch from an API endpoint.

fetch('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json')
    .then(response => {
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error('');
        }
        return response.json();
    })
    .then(data => {
        // Do something with the response data
        // console.log(data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });

Python for easily work with data.

import requests
url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json'
try:
    response = requests.get(url)
    response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for 4XX and 5XX status codes
    data = response.json()  # Parse the JSON response
    print(data)  # Print the response data
except requests.RequestException as e:
    print(f'Error: {e}')

PowerShell code to extract data.

$url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json'
try {
    $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get
    # Print the response
    Write-Output $response
} catch {
    # Print error message if request fails
    Write-Error "Error: $_"
}

The following snippet brings data into your application.

require 'net/http'
url = URI('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json')
begin
response = Net::HTTP.get_response(url)
if response.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)
    puts response.body
else
    puts "Error: #{response.code} - #{response.message}"
end
rescue StandardError => e
puts "Error: #{e.message}"
end

Below code that makes usage with .NET more natural.

using System;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
class Program
{
    static async Task Main(string[] args)
    {
        var response = await new HttpClient().GetStringAsync("https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json");
        Console.WriteLine(response);
    }
}

JAVA for easily work with data.

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        URL url = new URL("https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json");
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("GET");
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
        String line;
        StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            response.append(line);
        }
        reader.close();
        System.out.println(response.toString());
    }
}

The following snippet brings data into your application.

shell "curl -X GET https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json"

PHP code to brings the data.

<?php
// Specify the URL you want to send the GET request to
$url = "https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00049&resourceId=RS00051&top=100&type=json";
// Initialize cURL session
$curl = curl_init();
// Set the cURL options
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// Execute cURL session
$response = curl_exec($curl);
// Close cURL session
curl_close($curl);
// Print the response
echo $response;
?>
