Independent evaluation in the World Bank Group (WBG) assesses the relevance, efficacy, efficiency of WBG operational programs and activities, and their contribution to development effectiveness. The Director-General, Evaluation (DGE) oversees all independent evaluation work, and appraises other WBG evaluation systems and methods. The DGE discharges these responsibilities through three evaluation units- IEG-WB, IEG-IFC and IEG-MIGA, each of which focuses on different WBG institutions. The DGE is directly responsible to the Boards of Directors of IBRD/IDA, IFC and MIGA.
