Overview
A conversation between IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva and World Bank Group President David Malpass
World Bank Group President David Malpass and IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva will kick off the Spring Meetings with a discussion on the complex challenges facing the global economy.
Three years since the pandemic started, uncertainties and risks still weigh heavily on the global economy. Stubborn inflation, the cost-of-living crisis, and slower growth effects all of us, but especially hurts the poor and most vulnerable. Record high debt is holding back developing countries, and the effects of climate change are threatening lives and livelihoods around the world. On top of all this, Russia’s war in Ukraine and geopolitical fragmentation makes international coordination even more challenging. This conversation will explore how to better finance global public goods and address these challenges together.
