Yr04 Remuneration 4wv36

REMUNERATION OF EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT, EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS, AND STAFF To recruit and retain highly qualified staff, the World Bank Group has developed a compensation and benefits system designed to be internationally competitive, to reward performance, and to take into the special needs of a multinational and largely expatriate staff. The Bank Group’s staff salary structure is reviewed annually by the Executive Directors and, if warranted, is adjusted on the basis of a comparison with salaries paid by private financial and industrial firms and by representative public sector agencies in the U.S. market. After analyses of updated comparator salaries, the Board approved an average increase in the salary structure of 3.5 percent for fiscal 2008, effective July 1, 2007, for Washington-appointed staff. The annual salaries (net of taxes) of executive management of the World Bank Group were as follows for the period July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2008: Executive Management: Annual Salaries (Net of Taxes, in US$) NAME AND POSITION d
