World Bank's Economic expert, Mr. Akram Shorbagy, reviewed the aspects and objectives of the two projects and their coordination with the assistance and capacity-building projects that have been provided by other development partners to the Central Bank of Yemen in order to ensure the intended WB's projects include all the bank's activities thereby eventually contributing to developing its performance not only in carrying out its functions and achieving its goals but also in strengthening its pioneering role in leading the banking sector and applying modern compliance and governance standards.

The CBY and WB teams stressed the importance of first implementing the proposed fiduciary assessment project, which will pave the way before the final preparation of an executive action plan to develop the performance of the Central Bank of Yemen.

The meeting between both teams concluded with the vice-governor's speech, which stressed the importance of the support provided by the World Bank and pointed to the need to develop the relationship between the two parties, as it will eventually contribute to strengthening the role of the Central Bank, developing its institutional capabilities.
