It records Executive Directors’ support for urgent action to help client countries contain contagion, reduce loss of life, and limit economic harm. It also seeks endorsement of the IBRD and IDA response, specifying waivers and exceptions for approval, and summarizes the recommended actions for Executive Directors.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nPROPOSAL FOR A WORLD BANK COVID-19 RESPONSE UNDER THE FAST TRACK COVID-19 FACILITY  \nMarch 11, 2020  \nDavid Malpass  \nPresident  \nMarch 12, 2020  \nPROPOSAL FOR A WORLD BANK RESPONSE  \nUNDER THE FAST TRACK COVID-19 FACILITY  \n1. On March 3, 2020, Executive Directors discussed how the World Bank Group would respond to the global outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) . 1 Executive Directors expressed broad support for the WBG to take urgent action to support the global public good by helping client countries to respond to the outbreak and prevent and reduce contagion and loss of life. They supported the establishment and launch of a US$12 billion World Bank Group Fast Track COVID-19 Facility (FTCF or “Facility”) to assist countries coping with the impact of the global outbreak. Of this amount, US$6 billion would come from IBRD and IDA. IFC has subsequently increased its amount from US$6 billion to US$8 billion, which brings the FTCF total to US$14 billion. IFC is presenting a separate paper that will cover its response to the outbreak.  \n2. This Memorandum seeks the endorsement of Executive Directors of the proposed IBRD and IDA response under the Facility (“WB COVID-19 Response”), including the approval of specific waivers and exceptions set forth in Section IV of the attached paper.  \n3. Recommendation. I am satisfied that the recommendations set out in Section IV of the attached paper comply with the Articles of Agreement of IBRD and IDA and recommend that Executive Directors approve them.  \nDavid Malpass  \nPresident  \n------------------------------------  \n1 See “Briefing Note for Board of Executive Directors on Launch of World Bank Group Fast Track COVID-19 Facility”(SecM2020-0060 [IDA/SecM2020-0058, IFC/SecM2020-0024, MIGA/SecM2020-0023]), March 3, 2020.  \nTable of Contents  \nPROPOSAL FOR A WORLD BANK RESPONSE UNDER THE FAST TRACK COVID-19  \nFACILITY ............................................................................................................................................... 2  \nI.
