Budget

World Bank Program Budget and All Funds FY09-FY14

Data as of 2014

The World Bank Program Budget and All Funds represent the administrative budget for Bank Budget (BB) funds, Trust Funds, and Reimbursable Funds. BB funds are authorized by the World Bank's Board of Directors. Trust Funds are financing arrangements set up with contributions from one or more donors (and in some cases from the World Bank Group too) to support development-related activities. Reimbursable Funds represent revenues generated by the World Bank (WB) when costs incurred by the WB are reimbursed by clients, donors, or others for operational and administrative services provided to clients and/or for sharing administrative costs based on negotiated cost-sharing arrangements.


FY09-FY14 data presented is based on the "Program Cost Summary" found within the Annex of each World Bank Budget paper.


Note: The Budget data from FY15 onwards is available in https://finances.worldbank.org/d/9g9y-b7rs

Instructions:

We recommend using the API service only for datasets with over a million records. For smaller datasets, please use the JSON link in the "Actions and Tools" section to extract all records at once.

The API supports extraction of up to 1,000 records per request/page. To extract all records, we recommend using the code snippets provided in the Code Snippets tab.

Parameter guidelines:

  • Use DD-MMM-YYYY format for date fields.
  • To filter multiple values, separate them with "|". Example: Country = India|Afghanistan.
  • To filter for blank values, pass "IS NULL". Example: Country = IS NULL.
  • To filter for non-blank values, pass "IS NOT NULL". Example: Country = IS NOT NULL.
