+
+projects in 100+ countries. Also adopted by many multilateral development banks
+(MDBs) as their standard.
+
+Why it matters: ESF compliance is condition precedent to World Bank disbursement.
+Delays in compliance verification delay project funding. The gate stack's
+deterministic rule system can encode ESF standards as execution gates — "no
+disbursement unless ESS5 resettlement plan is verified complete." First-mover
+advantage: World Bank compliance is entirely document-based (reports, audits,
+site visits). A verified gate system is unprecedented.
+
+** IFC Performance Standards (PS)
+
+International Finance Corporation's standards for environmental and social
+sustainability in private sector investment. Eight standards: PS1 (risk
+management), PS2 (labor), PS3 (resource efficiency), PS4 (community health),
+PS5 (land/resettlement), PS6 (biodiversity), PS7 (indigenous peoples), PS8
+(cultural heritage). Adopted by over 80 Equator Principles financial
+institutions (project finance lenders).
