"World Bank" is a bit of a misnomer because the organization is primarily controlled by the U.S. The U.S. provides the majority of the funding and therefore they get to appoint the board members. Other countries that contribute financially don't get much veto power.
Anyways, they don't actually do a lot of banking for economic purposes, it's more of ESG initiatives for poor countries so I wouldn't imagine Ajay Banga's appointment to be very consequential. He'll be there to do the U.S.'s foreign policy bidding.
