Prelude
“ The dramatic events ushering in the new
century—from globalization and a final, major
wave of consolidation to regulatory changes and
technology breakthroughs—are compelling
development banks[DB] to turn their focus toward
efficiency and country relationship development.”*

Is real IT transformation likely to take place?
Three converging forces appear to make it
unavoidable:
 DBs spreading across geographies
 Financial transactions are commoditized

Challenges Faced By Development Banks
DBs require real time system control on their operations
DBs are unable to effectively track the development results
 The credibility of the financial reports becomes questionable
Systematic Development Bank-wide management of data
Risk measurement and management is becoming increasingly
complex

• And to support DB’s three major information systems initiatives:
 Knowledge management
 Project processing and portfolio management
 Program resource management
Latest Facts:
• World Bank IT strategy took the approach of building up integrated systems for sharing of information with
member countries
• IFC has provided the user interfaces to access existing information, while gradually replacing the older mainframe
systems
• IDB has developed facilities using portal technology to provide access to many disparate systems .
• IADB is planning for implementation of Integrated IT Roadmap to synchronizes their ORG structure
