Noronnican International Development Fund
.

Formed	12th June 1972
Headquarters	Nolon City, Noronica
Motto	"Funding the needs of all."
Employees	1,500

We work to improve lives in The Western Isles.

Through financial and technical support for countries working to reduce poverty and inequality, we help to improve health, education, and advance infrastructure. Our aim is to achieve development in a sustainable, climate-friendly way. With a history dating back to 1972, today we are the leading source of development financing for The Western Isles. We provide loans, grants, and technical assistance; and we conduct extensive research. We maintain a strong commitment to achieving measurable results and the highest standards of increased integrity, transparency, and accountability.

The Fund's current focus areas include three development challenges – social inclusion and inequality, productivity and innovation, and economic integration – and three cross-cutting issues – gender equality and diversity, climate change and environmental sustainability; and institutional capacity and the rule of law.

We have over 1,500 employees across the region, with headquarters in Nolon City,Noronica, and regional offices in Athara Magarat, Ainslie and Corindia. Borrowing members are represented by the Board of Executive Directors. NIDF clients include: central governments, provinces, municipalities, private firms, and NGOs.

Governance of the NIDF is vested in the Board of Governors, which tops the organisational structure of the Fund. Each member country appoints a governor, whose voting power is proportional to the capital in the Fund subscribed by his or her country. Governors are usually ministers of finance, presidents of central banks or other high-ranking officials.

The Board of Governors holds an annual meeting in March or April of each year to review the Fund's operations and make major policy decisions. It may also hold extraordinary meetings on key issues.

The NIDF's governors are ultimately responsible for overseeing the Fund's activities and administration. Although, in practice, they delegate many of those responsibilities to the Board of Executive Directors.

Trust Funds are established by sovereign and non-sovereign donors to complement the NIDF offerings to its borrowing member countries. The countries and multilateral institutions that contribute to NIDF trust funds are Noronica, Polar Svalbard, Ostehaar, and the Cooperative Union.

Among the NIDF’s strategic partners and donors that contribute to the trust funds are private sector corporations, foundations and multilateral institutions, fostering strategic Public and Private Partnerships (PPP) with the NIDF.

The Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF)—created to promote private sector growth through grants and investments—is the largest multi-donor trust fund of the NIDF.

The Fund also administers multiple single-donor trust funds that provide reimbursable and grant funds to finance consulting services, training, pilot projects and co-financing that complement NIDF reimbursable operations and trigger scalability.

At present the Fund has $188 billion. If it were faced with immediate requests for more than what is at its disposal, it would take the NIDF several weeks to tap various sources of funding. The largest contributor to the Fund is the Federal Overlordship of Noronica for which the Fund takes its name, contributing 15.09% stake worth roughly $28 billion.

The Royal Noronnican Banking Corporation plc or shortened as RNBC, is a Noronnican multinational bank with headquarters in Nolon City, Noronica. It is considered as Noronica's largest bank, with branches all over Noronica and its territories, and with many international branches. The bank's roles vary from personal finance, commercial banking, private banking, consumer finance, and corporate & investment banking.

The Royal Noronnican Banking Corporation was founded on 16^th February 1874 by Ger Robert Hunter. Ger Robert was a well-known Philanthropist in Noronica, having published several articles on the state of the welfare of working-class Noronnicans in Noronica's industrial cities. Ger Robert and other like-minded individuals founded the bank in the city of Port Sinare under the name, 'The Imperial Bank' in the hopes that the bank would flourish in domestic and imperial holdings. Their design was two-fold, to found a bank to finance the growing trade between Noronica and the rest of the Western Isles, and to design a bank that would finance the needs of all of its customers without being overly-bureaucratic or practising unfair favouritism.

The bank eventually grew to a substantial size, constructing branches in Arván, Charbagnia, the Black Isle and Alteran Republics within the first decade. The bank continued to expand into other imperial dominions and also expanded into foreign nations. During this period of expansion, the Imperial Bank relocated its headquarters to Nolon City. It was formally incorporated by decree of the Noronnican government as 'The Noronnican Banking Corporation' on 23^rd December 1886.

Later, in the late 1950s after the First Imperial War, the bank underwent a large international promotion campaign. This led to a large influx of new customers both at home and abroad, which also led to the construction of international operation headquarters to allow for more delegating of power and to allow for easier international banking. The bank was eventually put on the Royal Charter in 1961 which led to it being incorporated again as the 'Royal Noronnican Banking Corporation'.

During the Noronnican Civil War, RNBC was forced to relocate to the Noronnican Black Isle as it felt mainland Noronica was extremely unstable. The RNBC moved back to its Nolon City branch in 1999 as Noronica continued to rebuild itself, playing a vital role for public finance.
