Determination on U.S. Position on
Proposed World Bank Group’s
International Financial Corporation
(IFC) Projects in Bosnia and
Herzegovina
Pursuant to section 561 of the Foreign
Operations, Export Financing, and
Related Programs Appropriations Act,
2006 (Pub. L. 109–102) (FOAA), and
Department of State Delegation of
Authority Number 289, I hereby
determine that the proposed 4.0 million
Euro ICF investment package to
transform the Ekonomic Kredit
Institution (EKI) from a not-for-profit

and the 3.0 million Euro IFC investment
package to transform MIBOSPO into a
commercial financial organization to
increase their micro lending capacities,
will contribute to a stronger economy in
Bosnia and Herzegovina, directly
supporting implementation of the
Dayton Accords. I therefore waive the
application of section 561 of the FOAA
to the extent that provision would
otherwise prevent the U.S. Executive
Directors of the IFC from voting in favor
of these projects.
This Determination shall be reported
to the Congress and published in the
