OREANDA-NEWS. On 08 May 2009 was announced, that the World Bank had launched a comprehensive review of its disclosure policy to ensure that the core approach is well aligned with its values and priorities.  It proposes to shift its approach to disclosure—from today’s policy, which spells out what information the Bank discloses (a “positive list”), to one under which the Bank would disclose any information in its possession that is not on a list of exceptions.

For specific information on the review and global consultation process, as well the new disclosure policy itself, please visit the Disclosure Consultations page. You are also welcome to leave your comments there.

Consultations for Kazakhstan will be held on May 29, 2009, at the World Bank office in Kazakhstan.

Please check the announcements on our website for more updated information on the time and venue.
