David McNair
and
Daouda Sembene
December 19, 2022
One in five people on the planet live in countries at risk of debt distress. Yet the leaders and institutions that understand the challenge and could address it are instead virtue signaling and pointing the finger at others who share responsibly for a solution. We need a different approach—one that ...

Bernat Camps Adrogué
and
Mark Plant
December 12, 2022
Developing countries are facing a pair of looming crises in climate change and debt. And while these are distinct crises, they are linked: countries more vulnerable to climate change are also facing higher debt risks.

How the Global Debt Crisis Could Make the Hunger Crisis Worse
Clemence Landers
and
Rakan Aboneaaj
October 17, 2022
Not every country at risk of debt distress is at risk of a famine, and vice-versa. But for the handful of countries that are vulnerable to both, the interplay between the two crises could exact a devastating human toll.

Rakan Aboneaaj et al.
October 11, 2022

A World of Dangerous Debt Limbo
Clemence Landers
and
Nancy Birdsall
September 14, 2022

A Comment on IDA’s Debt Sustainability Framework
Mark Lowcock
and
Bernat Camps Adrogué
May 03, 2022
In a recent note, we asked whether IDA, the arm of the World Bank that provides concessional lending to the poorest countries, has the right approach for determining the balance between grants and loans which its recipients receive.

Masood Ahmed
and
Niki Baroy
April 22, 2022

Biniam Bedasso
and
Jack Rossiter
April 20, 2022
In 2021, Ghana announced a plan to issue sovereign bonds of up to $2 billion, with proceeds due partially to fund a free secondary school program.
