1. The Need to Consider Human Rights

2. End extreme poverty by decreasing the percentage of people living on less than $1.25 a day to no more than 3% of global population. Promote shared prosperity by fostering the income growth of the bottom 40% for every country. These goals are to be achieved by 2030.

The Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) was created in 1988 as a member of the World Bank Group to promote foreign direct investment into developing countries to support economic growth, reduce poverty, and improve peoples lives.

8. Leading economic countries will drop from controlling 80% of global GDP to 35% of global GDP. A fundamental change in the way the world is balanced with China and India becoming much more significant actors. Tripling of the worlds middle class to 3 billion people with 2/3 of them in Asia. Average per capita income in Africa will be 2-3K per capita (2 billion/9 billion people), China and India 30-40K per capita (3-4 billion people), the developed world 90-100K per capita (1 billion people) Gaps between rich and poor will be a point of contention. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a0zhc1y_Ns

9. I'm pleased to announce today that with the support of our board, we now have the capacity to nearly double our annual lending to middle- income countries from $15 billion to as much as $28 billion a year. This means that the World Bank's lending capacity, or the amount of loans we carry on our balance sheet, will increase by $100 billion in the next decade to roughly $300 billion. This is in addition to the largest replenishment in the history of IDA, our fund for the poorest, with nearly $52 billion in grants and concessional loans that we received just in December. At the same time, we're also increasing our direct support to the private sector. MIGA is planning to increase its new guarantees by nearly 50 percent over the next four years. IFC expects it will nearly double its portfolio over the next decade to $90 billion. Taken as a whole, the World Bank Group's annual commitment, which today is around $45 to 50 billion, is expected to grow to more to $70 billion in the coming years. http://www.cfr.org/economic-development/world-bank-announces- increased-lending-support-goal-ending-extreme-poverty/p32698 http://www.cfr.org/economic-development/world-bank-announces- increased-lending-support-goal-ending-extreme-poverty/p32698
