Final Answer :
The two divisions of the World Bank are the International Finance Corporation (IFC)and International Development Association (IDA). The IFC loans money to private enterprises within the DVCs. The IDA grants money that does not have to be paid back to the poorest DVC governments in addition to issuing them "soft loans" that have generously low interest rates and extended payout periods.
