Scope and content

This series includes subject and activity files collected by Jessica P. Einhorn while serving in the Office of the Vice President and Treasurer (TREVP, 1981-1986, 1991-1995) and the Financial Operations Department (FOD, 1987-1991). Included are some files likely created by Einhorn's TREVP colleagues and predecessors, notably Vice President and Treasurer Eugene H. Rotberg.

Topics discussed in subject files from the 1970s and 1980s include: a proposal for a "World Bank's Bank" to increase IBRD lending and raise funds from commercial banks; the Financial Policy and Analysis Department (FPA); asset management; debt prepayment; special drawing rights; U.S. Treasury policy; and innovative financial transactions. Subject files from Einhorn's tenure as Vice President and Treasurer (1991-1995) cover topics such as: policy issues in international bond market access and liability management; proposed borrowing transactions; the Government Borrowers Forum; and monitoring reports on audits.
