B. A group of countries working together is bigger and more powerful than one country acting by itself. A is wrong because membership in an IGO puts more pressure on a wealthy country to aid poor countries. C is wrong because member countries are supposed to consult the group. D is wrong because by joining an IGO a country agrees to abide by the group's decisions to a certain extent.
