International Development Association The International Development Association (IDA) was created in 1960 with country development objectives similar to those of the World Bank. However, its loan policy is more appropriate for less prosperous nations. The IDA extends loans at low interest rates to poor nations that cannot qualify for loans from the World Bank. Bank for International Settlements The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) attempts to facilitate cooperation among countries with regard to international transactions. It serves central banks of countries in their pursuit of financial stability. The BIS is sometimes referred to as the \"central banks' central bank\" or the \"lender of last resort.\" lt played an important role in supporting some of the less developed countries during international debt crises. It commonly provides financing for central banks in Latin American and Eastern European countries. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) facilitates governance in governments and corporations of countries with market economics. It has 34 member countries as well as relationships with numerous other countries. The OECD promotes international country relationships that lead to globalization Regional Development Agencies There are several other agencies whose objectives relating to economic development are more regional than global. These include, for example, the InterAmerican Development Bank (focusing on the needs of Latin America), the Asian Development Bank (established to enhance social and economic development in Asia), and the African Development Bank (focusing on development in African countries). In 1990, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development was created to help Eastern European countries adjust from communism to capitalism. International Finance Corporation In 1956 the International Finance Corporation (IFC) was established to promote private enterprise within countries. Composed of a number of member nations, the IFC works to promote economic development through the private rather than the government sector. It not only provides loans to corporations but also purchases stock, thereby becoming part owner in some cases in addition to a creditor. The IFC typically provides 10 to 15 percent of the necessary funds to the private enterprise projects in which it invests, and the rest of the project must be financed through other sources. Thus the IFC serves as a catalyst, rather than a primary supporter, for privateenterprise development projects. It traditionally has obtained financing from the World Bank but can also borrow in the international financial markets
