She faces an uphill battle for the post against U.S. nominee Jim Yong Kim, who has won support of key shareholders including Japan and South Korea.<\/p>\n<p>Okonjo-Iweala said she fully supported a transparent and merit-based bank presidency selection, saying &#8220;let the best person win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked about her biggest contribution to the World Bank presidency contest this year, the veteran economist noted she has helped shape the historic process that was unstoppable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think whatever the case may be or whoever wins, it can never be the same for the World Bank in choosing its leader,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Okonjo-Iweala said she was a strong believer of an open selection process and backed staging debates among contenders, adding that &#8220;the World Bank is a public institution and I see no reason why the people vying for that post should not be subject to open debates for people to ask questions&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The World Bank, a key part of the Bretton Woods system, has always been headed by an American since its inception after the Second World War. This year&#8217;s presidency selection marked the first time that an American candidate has been challenged by others from developing countries.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think the Bretton Woods system is dead. I think the Bretton Woods system needs to evolve and is perfectly capable of evolving&#8221; in a bid to keep in sync with evolving economic weights and the desire for better global governance from developing countries, she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The World Bank has started on the path of reforming its governance,&#8221; she noted, adding that the continuing conversation between its member countries seeking bigger voting shares and those to give up voting power needed to be handled with great care.<\/p>\n<p>The Bretton Woods system, which became operational in 1945, set up a system of rules and institutions including the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), part of today&#8217;s World Bank and its sister agency the International Monetary Fund (IMF), to regulate the international monetary and economic governance. In 1971, the United States unilaterally terminated convertibility of the U.S. dollar to gold, a pillar of the system.<\/p>\n<p>The 25-member executive board of the Washington-based bank was scheduled to interview Jose Antonio Ocampo, former Colombian finance minister on Tuesday, and Kim, a Korean-American global health expert and president of Dartmouth College, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The World Bank is expected to pick a candidate by its Spring Meetings scheduled to kick off in Washington D.C. on April 20, to replace Robert Zoellick, whose term ends in June.

Xinhua has set up a global news and information gathering network, with headquarters in Beijing, 33 domestic bureaus in provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities plus the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macao, as well as 140 bureaus in the rest of the world. Xinhua is yet to set up a bureau in Taiwan, where it has posted resident correspondents. Xinhua provides its worldwide subscribers with news and financial information products in the forms of text, photo, graphics, audio, video, and mobile phone text messages 24 hours a day in eight languages: Chinese, English, French, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese and Japanese.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/CapitalFM_Kenya"],"url":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/author\/xinhua\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15048","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13592"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15048"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15048\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15049"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15048"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15048"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15048"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.co.ke\/business\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=15048"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
