With over ten thousand employees and tens of billions of dollars in investment in the world's poorest nations, the World Bank is at the nexus of global development and social change. Sebastian Mallaby's new book, The World's Banker, pulls back the curtain on this influential entity and its inner workings. What drives this institution? How does the leadership style of World Bank's president James Wolfensohn effect the current and future direction of the World Bank? Mallaby, one day after the book's official release, leads a lively discussion on this enigmatic and often controversial organization.
