Business Standard’s global focus today is on the World Bank’s role in financing the mitigation of the coronavirus pandemic.
India has been the largest beneficiary in this crisis, with $1 billion in emergency funding sanctioned to fight the growing crisis in the country. The World Bank has pumped billions of dollars in countries from Haiti to Argentina to Ethiopia and even Yemen, which recently recorded its first ever case at a time when the country’s population was facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis and the horrors of a civil war.
