 ### Changed
 - Updated Impact Calculation Tutorial (`doc.climada_engine_Impact.ipynb`) [#1095](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1095).
+- `climada.util.finance`: `world_bank_wealth_account` now fetches data via the
+  World Bank Indicators API instead of downloading a ZIP/CSV file.
+  Updated available year range from 1995–2014 to 1995–2020. [#1292](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1292)
 
 ### Fixed
 
 - Fixed asset count in impact logging message [#1195](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1195).
 - `Hazard.from_raster_xarray` now returns a sparse matrix instead of a sparse array [#1261](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1261).
+- `climada.util.finance`: Fixed broken `WORLD_BANK_INC_GRP` download URL
+  (`databank.worldbank.org`) whose SSL certificate had expired. [#1292](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1292)
 
 ### Deprecated
 - `Impact.calc_freq_curve()` should not be given the parameter `return_per`. Use the parameter `return_periods` in `Impact.calc_freq_curve().interpolate()` instead.
 
 ### Removed
 - `climada.util.earth_engine.py` Google Earth Engine methods did not facilitate direct use of GEE data in CLIMADA. Code was relocated to [climada-snippets](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada-snippets). [#1109](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1109)
 - `doc.climada_util_earth_engine.ipynb` Tutorial about GEE not relevant to CLIMADA Core. Tutorial notebook was relocated to [climada-snippets](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada-snippets). [#1109](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1109)
+- `climada.util.finance`: Removed constants `WORLD_BANK_WEALTH_ACC` and
+  `FILE_WORLD_BANK_WEALTH_ACC`. [#1292](https://github.com/CLIMADA-project/climada_python/pull/1292)
