The United Nations has a central mandate to promote higher standards of living, full employment, and conditions of economic and social progress and development, among other goals. While the World Bank and the Export Development Corporation are focused on specific financial and economic issues, and GATT (which has since been replaced by the World Trade Organization) was focused on international trade, the United Nations has a broader mandate encompassing economic, social, and political issues. The Bank of Canada is Canada's central bank and is responsible for monetary policy, not economic development or social progress.
