The G20 Debt Plan Does Not Go Far Enough

Akhtar, Shamshad; Gallagher, Kevin P.; Volz, Ulrich

Abstract

Developing countries can emerge from the COVID-19 crisis and be prepared to pursue a green path to future prosperity only if their creditors adapt to the post-pandemic world. A bolder new debt-relief initiative rooted in global solidarity can help to reverse the recent increase in poverty worldwide, reduce damaging inequalities, and save our planet for future generations.
