Luxembourg is a member of all five institutions that form the World Bank Group, and is valued for its thought leadership on private sector development and climate finance. The Minister of Finance represents Luxembourg on the World Bank Board of Governors, the senior decision-making body. The Governor delegates responsibility for overseeing the day-to-day business of Luxembourg’s interests at the World Bank to an Executive Director.

The World Bank Group’s Brussels office works to promote consensus around the international development agenda and build a platform for collaboration between the World Bank Group and Luxembourg. The office serves as an entry point for stakeholders in Luxembourg wishing to contact World Bank Group staff across the world or access information, and it responds to media queries. It also seeks to increase opportunities for collaboration between Luxembourg and the World Bank Group through co-financing, trust funds, and joint analytical work in sectors and regions of mutual interest.

Cooperation with the Luxembourg Stock Exchange

Luxembourg is recognized for using its role as a financial hub to promote sustainable investment. The World Bank Group has been listing its bonds in Luxembourg for decades, beginning with the first IBRD bond and IFC security in the 1980s, later joined by IDA's first bond in 2018, also listed in Luxembourg. Bonds issued by IBRD and IDA are included on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange's platform and the Luxembourg Green Exchange database, which provide investors with extensive information on labeled bonds, supporting transparency in the bond market.
