Public Sector Governance

The Public Sector Governance Group is part of the
Poverty Reduction and Economic Management (PREM) Network

A fundamental role of the Bank is to help governments work better in our client countries. The Public Sector Group's objectives are based on the view that the Bank must focus more of its efforts on building efficient and accountable public sector institutions -- rather than simply providing discrete policy advice.

The World Bank released in mid-October Strengthening World Bank Group Engagement on Governance and Anticorruption: Second-Year Progress Report. The Bank’s Governance and Anticorruption (GAC) Strategy was endorsed by the Board of Executive Directors in March 2007. At a time when rebuilding trust in institutions has emerged as a central challenge in the wake of the global economic crisis, the GAC agenda remains very much a priority.
