WORKING ACROSS SECTORS AND THEMES: CODING OF BANK LENDING OPERATIONS, FY1995-2010<br />

the PSG Sector Board over the full period and a theme in about one-third.<br />

Comparable figures for environment and social development and gender themes<br />

were 21 percent and 24 percent, respectively. <strong>The</strong> average alloc<strong>at</strong>ion of oper<strong>at</strong>ions to<br />

PSG as a non-affili<strong>at</strong>ed theme in oper<strong>at</strong>ions mapped to other Sector Boards was 10<br />

percent over the period FY07-10, and to PSG as a non-affili<strong>at</strong>ed sector was 19<br />

percent; it was 7 percent for the environment theme and 4 percent for the social<br />

development and gender themes.<br />

*<strong>The</strong>re were too few oper<strong>at</strong>ions mapped to the gender and social development Sector Boards in the first two periods to<br />

provide meaningful d<strong>at</strong>a.<br />

ENVIRONMENT<br />

100. Based on the sector/them<strong>at</strong>ic alloc<strong>at</strong>ion, environmental themes do not<br />

appear to have been mainstreamed across the Bank’s portfolio, and there is some<br />

evidence of a declining trend over time. ENV has been flagged as a theme in 19<br />

percent of the oper<strong>at</strong>ions approved during FY07-10, which is less than the 26 percent<br />

in FY95-98 period. Oper<strong>at</strong>ions mapped to other Sector Boards alloc<strong>at</strong>ed an average<br />

of 7 percent to the ENV theme in FY07-10, compared to 9 percent in FY95-98.<br />

101. Moreover, projects mapped to the ENV Sector Board are becoming more<br />

specialized over time as stand-alone environmental projects, r<strong>at</strong>her than closely<br />

linked to activities in other sectors. Alloc<strong>at</strong>ions to non-affili<strong>at</strong>ed themes among<br />

oper<strong>at</strong>ions mapped to the ENV Sector Board declined from an average of 33 percent<br />

during FY95-98 to 21 percent during FY07-10.<br />

PUBLIC SECTOR GOVERNANCE<br />

102. Public sector governance is the most prevalent of the corpor<strong>at</strong>e priorities<br />

among oper<strong>at</strong>ions of other Sector Boards; this has not changed significantly over<br />
