Quick Glance: Biden appoints ex-Mastercard CEO to lead World Bank
- US President Joe Biden nominated former Mastercard CEO Ajay Banga to lead the World Bank on Thursday, after the development lender's current head announced plans to step down early.

- Prior to that, he was the CEO of Citigroup's Asia-Pacific Region.
