WBG Finances Platform Terms of Use

The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (“World Bank“), International Development Association (“IDA”), Multilateral Investment Guarantee Association “MIGA”), and the International Finance Corporation (“IFC”), collectively, the “World Bank Group,” and its officers, agents, employees, and any content providers, maintain this website entitled the WBG Finances Platform (the “Platform”) as part of their efforts to provide broad public access to data and information for sustainable development. We encourage parties accessing or utilizing the Platform (“Users”) to use the information and data it contains, as well as communication tools designed to facilitate this use. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the Platform, its data, communication tools, and any new tools made available that alter or improve the use of the Platform or the data shall be subject to this Agreement (“Terms of Use”).

The World Bank General Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, accessible through a link from the Platform, are incorporated herein by reference. Where these WBG Finances Terms of Use conflict with the World Bank General Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, these WBG Finances Platform Terms of Use shall control. I understand that accepting these Terms of Use is a condition precedent to being able to access the Platform’s data, and I will not be allowed to proceed unless I have agreed. I also understand that these Terms of Use may be amended by the World Bank from time to time at its sole discretion.
