Many files concern individual countries within the Bank regional vice presidencies for which Koch-Weser was responsible: Europe and Central Asia (ECA), the Middle East and North Africa (MNA), Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and South Asia (SAR). These country files include items such as briefing materials and meeting minutes with country officials; Country Assistance Strategies; and correspondence and other documents on particular Bank-funded projects.

Other topics in this series include social development, sustainable development, a 1995 "Reform Working Group" about change management within the World Bank Group, and the implementation of the Comprehensive Development Framework in 1999. Also included is one file of chronological notes and memoranda from Koch-Weser's executive assistant, Vorapaktra "Lek" Yongpradit.
