              <Paragraph>The International Development Association (IDA) came into existence in 1960, as an institution of the World Bank Group.  The Association's resources consist of subscriptions and supplementary resources in the form of general replenishments on a three year revolving cycle, mostly from its more industrialized and developed members; special contributions by its richer members; repayments on earlier credits; and transfers from IBRD's net earnings.</Paragraph>

              <Paragraph>The Association promotes economic development, reduces poverty, and raises the standard of living in the least developed areas of the world. It does this by financing their developmental requirements on concessionary terms, which are more flexible and bear less heavily on the balance of payments than those of conventional loans, thereby furthering the objectives of IBRD and supplementing its activities.</Paragraph>
