Jim Yong Kim, an American who is president of Dartmouth College, has been chosen to be the next president of the World Bank. His selection April 16 extends the U.S. hold on the top job at the 187-nation development agency. Kim, a surprise nominee of President Barack Obama, was selected in a vote by the World Bank's 25-member executive board. He'll succeed Robert Zoellick, who's stepping down after a five year term. Kim's selection marks a break from previous World Bank leaders who were typically political, legal or economic figures. (AP)
