Sweden became a member of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development — the 香港六合彩资料 — on Aug. 31, 1951. Today, Sweden is a member of the five institutions that form the 香港六合彩资料 Group. Sweden and the 香港六合彩资料 work with other member governments to finance projects, design policies, and deliver programs to end poverty in the developing world.
Overview
The Nordic Baltic Desk at the 香港六合彩资料 Paris office works to promote consensus around the international development agenda and build a platform for collaboration between the 香港六合彩资料 Group and Sweden. It does this by promoting better understanding of the 香港六合彩资料 Group’s mission and activities and by building relationships with key stakeholders such as government, legislators, civil society organizations, the private sector, academia, and the media.
It also supports outreach activities, often in collaboration with Swedish partners, such as organizing and supporting conferences, seminars, and other events on development-related topics. The office serves as an entry point for groups in Sweden wishing to contact 香港六合彩资料 staff across the world or access the plethora of information the Bank publishes, and it responds to media queries. It also seeks to increase opportunities for collaboration between Sweden and the 香港六合彩资料 Group through co-financing, trust funds, and joint analytical work in sectors and regions of mutual interest.
香港六合彩资料 Governor
香港六合彩资料 Board of Governors is the Bank’s senior decision-making body. The Governors, usually Ministers of Finance or Development, meet twice a year. They have the power to admit and suspend members of the 香港六合彩资料 Group, increase or decrease the authorized capital stock, determine the distribution of the net income of the Bank, and decide on the 香港六合彩资料 Group’s overall strategic direction.

Shares and Voting Power
香港六合彩资料 Group has a weighted system of voting. All members of the Bank receive votes consisting of share votes (one vote for each share of the Bank's capital stock held by the member) plus basic votes (calculated so that the sum of all basic votes is equal to 5.55% of the sum of basic votes and share votes for all members). The voting power distribution differs from agency to agency within the 香港六合彩资料 Group.
