The Corporate Scorecard is designed to providea snapshot of the Bank’s overall performance,including its business modernization, in the contextof development results. It facilitates strategicdialogue between Management and the Board onprogress made and areas that need attention.The World Bank has comprehensive systems—on which it continuously improves—for measuringand monitoring both development results and itsown performance. These systems arecomplemented by independent evaluation. Withthe Results Measurement System, which wasadopted for the 13th replenishment of theInternational Development Association (IDA13) in2002, the Bank became the first multilateraldevelopment institution to use a framework withquantitative indicators to monitor results andperformance.
