PRESENTATION OVERVIEW 1. The FCV challenge 2. Current Portfolio 3. Key challenges 1
CONTEXT: FRAGILITY, CONFLICT AND VIOLENCE ARE DEFINING CHALLENGES FOR THE GLOBAL COMMUNITY Poor people will increasingly be in countries affected by FCV (40% of poor in FCV by 2030); Addressing FCV challenges is key to achieving the twin goals By 2020, half of extremely poor will hail from fragile and conflict affected states FCV is not only a low income country problem MICs are also affected (56% of people affected by armed conflict live in MICs) Violence and conflict threaten shared prosperity: Homicide rates are four times higher in countries with a Gini index greater than 0.45 than in more equal societies. Populations vulnerable to FCV especially the 50 million displaced persons globally are also among the poorest. Weak business climate and high risks to investments are obstacles to private financing for development and job creation 2
ADDRESSING FCV CHALLENGES IS FUNDAMENTAL TO ACHIEVING WBG GOALS End Extreme Poverty An increasing share of the world s poor will live in fragile and conflict-affected states Promote Shared Prosperity Sub-national regions and urban centers impacted by FCV are being left behind Civil Conflict Political violence FCV Surge to address development risks and deliver results 3

Some of the key Challenges Rapidly changing global development landscape Political unrest and violence in Mideast, Ukraine, Venezuela etc. Rising extremism in regions and sub-regions Current system of measuring and identifying fragility Excludes IBRD only countries facing subnational, cross border, or supranational forms of stress and violence. Revision underway Mismatch between the available resources and the needs Mobilizing additional resources Balancing the work scope of FCV issues and developing selective approach 12
