World Bank Group - International Development, Poverty, & Sustainability
With 189 member countries, the World Bank Group is a unique global partnership fighting poverty worldwide through sustainable solutions.

Treasury is the Vice Presidency, reporting to the Managing Director and World Bank Group Chief Financial Officer, performing treasury functions for the IBRD and IDA and, to varying degrees, for other members of the World Bank Group and other public sector investors. Its activities are organized and grouped into the following departments: Capital Markets and Investment
Management, Client Asset Management and Advisory, and Treasury Operations.
The Treasury VPU also includes the Risk, Compliance, and Controls Unit.
Treasury has been a large and significant player in the international financial markets for over seventy years and has achieved a global reputation as a prudent and innovative borrower, investor, and risk manager. Treasury is responsible for: (i) managing approximately $185 billion in assets for the World Bank and other official sector investors; (ii) leading IBRD's and IDA's triple A rated financing programs in international and domestic bond and derivative markets; (iii) conducting asset and liability management for IBRD's and IDA's balance sheets; (iv) overseeing the development and outreach related to the financing and hedging products the Bank provides
for its developing-country clients; and (v) collaborating with the World Bank member countries to help build their capacity. Staff in Treasury regularly interact and work with other Departments across the Bank and Finance Partners teams.
Asset Management and Advisory (TREAA)
TREAA is responsible for managing approximately $90 billion of liquidity and fixed income portfolios for Trust Funds (including Financial Intermediary Funds), MIGA, and about 78 external clients consisting of Central Banks, Pension Funds, Sovereign Wealth Funds, and other Official Institutions. The department is also responsible for providing investment partnership and
advisory functions, capacity building, and training under the umbrella of the Reserve Advisory and Management Partnership (RAMP) Program.
This department is organized in three units: Asset Management (TREAM), Advisory and Partnership (TREAP), and Product, Knowledge, and Research (TREPK). The Product, Knowledge, and Research (TREPK) unit is responsible for thought leadership, production, and management of knowledge and research products, including presentations for technical advisory consultations, training programs, and applied research papers.

Within the unit, subject matter experts provide technical advisory in governance, asset allocation, responsible investing (ESG), risk
management, IT and business solutions, settlements, and operations. The learning & outreach team manages learning and outreach events, workshops, policy fora and training (internal and third-party), inclusive of marketing and branding materials.
