Historical IBRD Balance Sheets Data

Data as of 2024

This dataset contains Balance Sheets data from IBRD’s published financial statements.

It was compiled from data in our systems as well as by extracting the data from the published Financial Statements documents. The dataset goes as far back as the foundation of the institution (1946). This data has been verified and validated for publication, but does not, in any capacity, replace the official published Financial Statements. An archive for IBRD’s annual Financial Statements is available at www.worldbank.org/financialresults

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=DS01007&resourceId=RS00937&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=DS01007&resourceId=RS00937&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=DS01007&resourceId=RS00937&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=DS01007&resourceId=RS00937&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.
