Consultation

The Expert Review is keen to hear from institutions, organisations and individuals engaged in the fields of sovereign debt, nature and climate in low and middle income countries.

As we move towards our Final Report and recommendations, we are particularly interested to hear in particular evidence and views on the following questions:

  1. Views on the possible need for a general debt restructuring programme or approach in the present context and/or near future, and how this might be done.
  2. Views on the benefits, risks and potential of ‘debt for climate swaps’ and ‘debt for nature swaps’, and how these might be taken forward in the future
  3. Views on how new debt and other development financing arrangements might be structured to support low-carbon, climate-resilient, nature-positive and inclusive growth
  4. More detailed analysis on the way in which debt, nature and climate could be reflected in the Debt Sustainability Analysis methodologies used by the IMF and World Bank
  5. Analysis of the role of credit ratings agencies in this field, and any reforms you would like to see in this area
  6. Any other proposals and recommendations relating to the fields of debt, nature and climate

Please submit your consultation response to [email protected]. We would be glad to receive already written and published material.
