Question

Which one of the following indices is given priority by the World Bank with respect to development?

• A. Infant Mortality Rate
• B. Equality
• C. Body Mass Index
• D. Per Capita Income

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The World Bank considers Per Capita Income a key development metric. This figure represents a nation's average individual income and is used to categorize countries by income level (low, middle, or high). While indices such as Infant Mortality Rate are also significant, the World Bank doesn't emphasize them as much in its economic categorizations.
