The system which allows the U.S. to appoint the World Bank president and Europe to appoint the IMF head is “unfair.” That said, the Financial Times does, however, support President Obama’s surprise choice: Jim Yong Kim. “There is no indication that the White House will now allow an open contest for the World Bank…. But if Mr. Kim is indeed appointed, it will be a choice that the rest of the world can welcome.”
