A typical post picks up 60 interactions against 3.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.002%. Measured over 138 original posts, its engagement rate beats 15% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 9.4K times each, and 0.646% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.249% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 138 posts sampled, 87% carry an image or video, 8% are part of a thread and 83% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.7K interactions, about 45x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #wbgmeetings, #endpoverty, #idaworks.

Compared with accounts its own size

World Bank Group's engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 37% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.002%, World Bank Group sits below the 10th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 204,694 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,880 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 10:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it

  • 87% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 83% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
  • Its average post runs 271 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    The highly promising results from El Salvador’s first PISA for Schools assessment show what education reform can achieve when student learning is placed at the center—and change reaches the classroom. What is at stake is more than a score. It is a generation’s future and its prospects in the labor market. These preliminary findings, drawn from a group of schools, point to a path worth pursuing. The World Bank Group is proud to support El Salvador’s efforts to strengthen education and expand opportunities for generations to come. More on the assessment: https://t.co/3T612e0dhk

    We are delighted with our partnership with Prime Minister @GiorgiaMeloni's government on the Mattei Plan. Together, the World Bank Group and Italy are investing in Africa's energy, agriculture, infrastructure, and jobs—the building blocks of real, lasting opportunity for the continent's people. With African partners and global investors, we are helping countries attract private capital, create jobs, and turn demographic potential into long-term growth and stability—so a generation of young Africans can build bright futures at home. And what better day to reflect on all of this than today—when this government becomes the longest-serving in the history of the Italian Republic. A truly historic milestone. There is more we want to do together, and I look forward to continuing this work side by side. Our partnership is built on trust, shared purpose, and a genuine commitment to creating jobs and opportunities where they’re needed most. Congratulations, Prime Minister, your leadership has made a real difference, and I could not be more proud to call you a partner and friend.

That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own.

What is World Bank Group's engagement rate on X?
World Bank Group (@WorldBankGroup) has an engagement rate of 0.002%, based on the median interactions across 138 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,758,526 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.002%, World Bank Group sits below the 10th percentile of the 204,694 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @WorldBankGroup have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 15% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @WorldBankGroup post?
Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 6.03 posts per day across the measured window.
