Thank you Emily for this very kind introduction. It is a great pleasure and honor to be here today.
The World Bank Group has two goals: ending extreme poverty by 2030 and ensuring that prosperity is shared with all parts of society. We are owned by 188 member states of which the US is the largest shareholder. Many of our members are borrowers, others are donors, and some are both. But they are all working together to achieve our goals.
