Ivanka Trump reportedly being considered to head World Bank
US President Donald Trump's daughter and adviser Ivanka Trump is reportedly being considered for the position to head the World Bank.
The Financial Times reports Ivanka is among a list of names submitted to the Treasury Department to replace current World Bank President Jim Yong Kim, who recently announced he would step down this month.
Other names being floated include UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, Treasury Undersecretary for International Affairs David Malpass and Mark Green, head of the US Agency for International Development.
It is reminded that under an unwritten agreement, the United States, which is the World Bank's largest shareholder, has always chosen the bank's president since the institution was founded in 1945.
