Question

In which year was the World Bank established?

Hint:

This institution was created at the same 1944 conference as the IMF.

Answer 1

The World Bank was created in 1944.
This happened during the Bretton Woods Conference, where representatives from many countries met to design a new global financial system after World War Two. The International Monetary Fund was set up at the same conference.
The World Bank started functioning a little later, but its founding year is recorded as 1944, and it remains one of the most important international financial institutions today.
