| | Macedonia Country Brief |
 | | FYR Ma cedonia joined the World Bank and the International Development Association (IDA) in 1993. |
 | | Between 1998 and 2000, World Bank assistance to FYR Macedonia, guided by the Country Assistance Strategy, helped promote private sector growth, create jobs, enhance the efficiency of the state, alleviate poverty, and develop human capital. |
 | | Although FYR Macedonia was to graduate from IDA financing in 2001, on account of the conflict and its consequences, the Board of Directors of the World Bank agreed to an additional exceptional access to IDA funds for FY02 as well. |
