Washington, DC , October 16 :
In an interview with World Bank President Ajay Banga that took place on October 15th, Trump acknowledged the importance of international financial institutions and the ways in which their loans might open up new international markets for American manufacturers. When asked what would happen to the World Bank if Trump were to win the presidential election on November 5th, Banga gave an optimistic response in an interview with Reuters NEXT Newsmaker.

A number of conservative Republican Project 2025 agenda members have advocated for a U.S. exit from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, and Trump has been an outspoken critic of these organizations and their climate change initiatives.

However, Trump has repeatedly denied any involvement with Project 2025. In reference to the primary lending arm of the World Bank, "President Trump was the one who actually authorized a capital increase in the IBRD (International Bank for Reconstruction and Development) when he was in the office," Banga stated.

He went on to say that, ultimately, he sees the value—if expressed in words that are relevant to his goals and the policies of his administration. Although the Trump administration supported a $13 billion capital increase for the World Bank in April 2018, which increased China's voting power and shareholding, the reforms to lending came with the caveat that middle-income nations, including China, would pay more to borrow money.

Trump is aware, according to Banga, that there are few other organizations that can lend four or ten times the amount of a federal dollar to fund growth, opening up new markets for American and foreign businesses. "And he understands the power of leverage in delivering greater value for that dollar," he added. Ultimately, it would be fantastic if, via proper international growth, we could propel markets for American businesses. The kind of connections you seek can be fostered if we can do our part to make sure that businesses in Europe and India both gain.

An American citizen of Indian descent and a former CEO of Mastercard, Banga was nominated by President Joe Biden to head the World Bank. He claimed that the bank's efforts to generate employment in borrower nations can also assist avert future migratory and refugee problems. Therefore, I believe it is beyond the purview of any one administration to discover measures to guarantee that our bank can respond to the cause of growth in many parts of the world.Banga was also
