Over the past months, the Devex team has been monitoring and analyzing the World Bank’s Monthly Operational Summary, or MOS reports. These documents offer insight into the bank’s early project cycle, and hint at its future funding priorities — allowing Devex to highlight changes and trends over time.
Since our second analysis in July, we have continued to monitor the World Bank pipeline each month, capturing information as funding activities — our name for early-stage news, commitments, or pledges that imply future development funding opportunities for implementers.
Here, we walk through the notable changes and trends we’ve seen in the World Bank’s pipeline data since our last analysis. Members can also do their own analysis using our interactive visualization of the data, which you can now filter month by month.
