Private sector development is central to the World Bank Group's
efforts to promote growth, to free up scarce government resources for
investments in people, and to help countries integrate into the global
economy. The Business Partnership Center (BPC), which was established
in 1996, created this CD-ROM to introduce the business community to the
products and services offered by the World Bank Group. The World Bank
Group includes the World Bank which focuses on government-sector
related projects, The International Finance Corporation which finances
private projects in developing countries, and the Multilateral
Investment Guarantee Agency which insures projects against risks.
In an engaging, vivid, multimedia format, the CD-ROM provides a
wealth of information about how the Bank Group works with the business
community. With hyperlinks to various websites, this CD-ROM supplies
the latest information. The user will also learn about special
initiatives with the private sector, how the Group develops its
projects, and whom to contact for information within the Group. The
information contained on this CD-ROM furnishes the business community
with a comprehensive guide on how the Group operates. It also shows how
private business can secure a successful and productive partnership
with the World Bank Group. Detailed information on the loan application
processes can assist businesses with acquiring financing. With over $20
billion in contracts awarded annually through World Bank projects, this
