The Development Committee (DC) is a forum of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund that facilitates intergovernmental consensus-building on development issues.
The Committee’s mandate is to advise the Boards of Governors of the Bank and the Fund on critical development issues and on the financial resources required to promote economic development in developing countries. Over the years, the Committee has interpreted this mandate to include trade and global environmental issues in addition to traditional development matters.
Its website offers access to basic information on the DC and its members, plus communiqués, documents, statements, and news and events related to DC activity.
