What are the basic requirements for making an initial complaint to the Bank's Management?

The complaint must be written or typed in English, must be dated and signed, and must include the sender's name and contact address. It must be addressed to the President of the Bank. No specific form is required; a letter will suffice. The complaint should include the following information:

  • a brief description or identification of the project;
  • an identification of the sender (or the group the sender represents);
  • a brief description or identification of the operational policies or procedures that the sender believes have been violated;
  • a description of the act or omission by the Bank that the sender believes have led or may lead to this violation; and
  • an explanation of how the sender (or the group the sender represents) has been or is likely to be directly and materially harmed by the Bank's act or omission, and what rights or interests of the group have been or are likely to be adversely affected.
(See Inspection Procedures, Part E. See also Sample Form of Initial Complaint to Management.)
