Reinhart, who was promoted to a higher position within the bank in an effort to restore its credibility following ethics concerns, stated that certain key aspects of the new product had already been identified. These included a focus on greater transparency regarding the methodology used, an increased reliance on survey data from companies, and a reduced emphasis on ranking countries. Reinhart emphasized that all details of the product would be made public in order to enhance credibility. Additionally, the bank would place more importance on survey data to minimize subjective judgment and eliminate the competitive aspect of rankings that encouraged countries to manipulate the system. In September, the bank decided to stop releasing the annual "Doing Business" rankings due to concerns about data irregularities in the 2018 and 2020 editions. It was alleged that senior bank officials, including former CEO Kristalina Georgieva, who now leads the IMF, pressured staff to alter the data. A law firm is currently investigating potential staff misconduct related to these changes, which favored certain countries like China and Saudi Arabia. The IMF board supported Georgieva after examining the accusations, but she could still be implicated in the ongoing investigation. According to Reinhart, this situation has damaged the World Bank's credibility, and it will take time and effort to regain trust. She emphasized the importance of credibility being based on systems rather than personalities and mentioned that the bank has implemented numerous safeguards following external reviews in the past year. She stated that while nothing in life is completely guaranteed, measures can be put in place to reduce the potential for misuse and abuse. She hopes that credibility will ultimately be established, as credibility is hard to build and easy to lose. Reinhart initiated a thorough review of the Doing Business methodology by an external advisory panel in response to concerns about internal data manipulation in the reports. The scathing 84-page review that resulted called for various remedial actions and reforms, pointing out a pattern of government interference with scoring. It criticized the bank for lack of transparency regarding data and suggested it should cease selling consulting services to governments to improve their scores. This practice had already been stopped in 2020 and 2021, according to Reinhart. She mentioned that the bank would assess the wider implications of the scandal and determine necessary steps after the completion of the second WilmerHale report. Reinhart stated that they would address this issue once they had the full report available.
