WTO

In response to an inquiry to the World Trade Organization, we have received the following statement:

The WTO does not have a flag but does have a logo which [was given] to the WTO by Singapore.

Ms Hortence Mpako Foaleng
Information and Media Relations Division
World Trade Organization

The logo appears on all World Trade Organisation webpages. A link concerning the logo can be read here: www.wto.org/english/news_e/pres97_e/pr79_e.htm

At this page Yahoo shows the logo of the World Trade Organization.

Neither the IMF nor the World Bank fly any flags on their headquarters buildings in Washington. Also, if you check www.wto.org, you'll see the logo in color, not just white on black.

Photos showing WTO flags can be found at http://wto.inform.org.ua/aboutwto/ , http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/worldbiz/archives/2005/07/13/2003263377
and http://www.time.com/time/asia/magazine/99/1213/business.madashell.html. All are different, and they are all probably unofficial.

I am not sure if these are flags at all. The two photos do show only parts of some cloth, not necessarily and not clearly identifiably a flag. The third image is no photo, but a computer graphic.
