Abstract

The Global Financial Stability Report (GFSR) provides expert and up-to-date analysis of global capital flows that play a critical role in world economic growth and Financial stability. The report focuses on current conditions in global Financial markets, analyzing Financial imbalances and structural issues that could pose risks to stability and sustained market access by emerging market borrowers. Along with the IMF's semiannual World Economic Outlook, the GFSR is a key vehicle for communicating the IMF's multilateral surveillance. The GFSR also draws out the Financial ramifcations of economic imbalances highlighted by the WEO, making it an indispensable companion publication.

Abstract

La pandémie de COVID-19 a causé d’immenses souffrances humaines et provoqué une grave récession au Brésil. Les pouvoirs publics ont réagi à la crise en adoptant rapidement et de manière décisive des mesures économiques pour venir en aide à des millions de Brésiliens. Néanmoins, pour asseoir une reprise forte après la récession, il faudra améliorer durablement les politiques économiques. Obtenir de meilleurs résultats budgétaires reste l’un des principaux enjeux de l’action publique compte tenu de l’ampleur de la dette du Brésil, qui a augmenté de manière considérable sous l’effet de la pandémie. Il faudra accroître l’efficience des dépenses publiques, notamment en s’appuyant sur les progrès accomplis antérieurement dans la lutte contre la corruption et la délinquance économique. La protection sociale peut être renforcée par un meilleur ciblage sur les politiques et les prestations les plus efficaces, ce qui pourrait entraîner une réduction marquée des inégalités et de la pauvreté. Une croissance plus vigoureuse permettra de voir progresser la productivité, quasiment stable depuis des décennies. Pour cela, il est nécessaire de s’employer à régler les problèmes sous-jacents qui se posent en matière d’action publique, notamment de réduire le poids de la réglementation, de réformer la fiscalité, de renforcer l’efficacité du système judiciaire et de favoriser une meilleure intégration à l'économie mondiale. Relever la productivité suppose des réaffectations et des mutations structurelles de l'économie, qui devront être accompagnées de politiques judicieusement conçues en matière de formation et d'éducation. Des programmes de formation mettant l’accent sur les demandes locales de compétences peuvent aider les travailleurs à maîtriser cette transition et à exploiter de nouvelles possibilités d’obtenir un emploi de meilleure qualité.

Abstract

This paper focuses on Barbados' Third Review Under the Extended Arrangement, Requests for Augmentation of Access, and Modification of Performance Criteria. Barbados continues its strong implementation of the comprehensive Economic Recovery and Transformation plan aimed at restoring fiscal and debt sustainability and increasing reserves and growth. The ongoing global coronavirus pandemic poses a major challenge for the economy, which is heavily dependent on tourism, and is expected to have a large impact on the balance of payments and the fiscal accounts. State-owned enterprise (SOE) reform remains an essential element of Barbados' economic program. In order to secure fiscal space for investment in physical and human capital, transfers to SOEs need to decline after the global coronavirus pandemic with a combination of stronger oversight of SOEs, cost reduction, revenue enhancement, and mergers and divestment. Progress in restoring fiscal sustainability must be safeguarded by adopting a new central bank law that limits its financing of the Government to short-term advances and strengthens the central bank's mandate, autonomy, and decision-making structures. A strong recovery after the global pandemic will depend on accelerating structural reforms. There is much room for improvement in the business climate. Establishing a credit registry and credit collateral registry, in addition to broadening the types of eligible collateral, would facilitate access to credit.

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic and global financial crisis, governments swiftly served as financiers of last resort through large financial support measures (FSMs) such as loan and guarantee programs and equity injections in firms. This Staff Discussion Note argues that such FSMs prevented bankruptcies and attenuated the recession by increasing firms' liquidity, reducing risk premiums, and boosting confidence. But FSMs also carry large and long-lasting fiscal costs and risks. The note presents recommendations for managing the legacies of the COVID-19 programs and preparing for future crises. Ideally, FSMs should be assessed and included in budget plans, though a balance needs to be struck between speed and scrutiny.

Abstract

After inputs from country authorities, outside experts, and staff; after extensive deliberations at the Executive Board; after further guidance from ministers and governors at the IMFC meetings-after all that, we need to move from diagnosis to action. The goal of making surveillance as interconnected as the world economy remains an inherently long-term endeavor. Nevertheless, building on recent progress, we can do better even in the near term. I want to take this opportunity to put forward some specific measures, based on Executive Directors' many thoughtful comments and suggestions (Table 1).

Abstract

Global economic activity is experiencing a broad-based and sharper-than-expected slowdown, with inflation higher than seen in several decades. The cost-of-living crisis, tightening financial conditions in most regions, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the lingering COVID-19 pandemic all weigh heavily on the outlook. Global growth is forecast to slow from 6.0 percent in 2021 to 3.2 percent in 2022 and 2.7 percent in 2023. This is the weakest growth profile since 2001 except for the global financial crisis and the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Global inflation is forecast to rise from 4.7 percent in 2021 to 8.8 percent in 2022 but to decline to 6.5 percent in 2023 and to 4.1 percent by 2024. Monetary policy should stay the course to restore price stability, and fiscal policy should aim to alleviate the cost-of-living pressures while maintaining a sufficiently tight stance aligned with monetary policy. Structural reforms can further support the fight against inflation by improving productivity and easing supply constraints, while multilateral cooperation is necessary for fast-tracking the green energy transition and preventing fragmentation.

Abstract

In crisis times, depositors get anxious, can run on banks, and withdraw their deposits. Correlated withdrawals of bank deposits could be mitigated if bank deposits are more diversified, that is, held by more individuals. This paper examines the link between the broader access to bank deposits prior to the 2008 crisis and the dynamics of bank deposit growth during the crisis, while controlling for relevant covariates. Employing proxies for access to deposits and the use of bank deposits, the authors find that greater access to bank deposits can make the deposit funding base of banks more resilient in times of financial stress. Policy efforts to enhance financial stability should thus not only focus on macroprudential regulation, but also recognize the positive effect of broader access to bank deposits on financial stability.

Abstract

Alors que le champ des possibles se réduisait depuis des mois pour les autorités tunisiennes, un chemin - certes sinueux et semé d'embuches - laisse entrevoir une possible sortie du tunnel. Depuis la révolution de 2011, la Tunisie connaît des déséquilibres macroéconomiques majeurs matérialisés par le décrochage de son rythme de croissance et la dégradation de ses comptes publics et externes. Les conséquences économiques et sociales de la crise sanitaire, la situation inextricable des finances publiques et l'imprévisibilité du cadre politique suite au coup de force du Président Kaïs Saïed en juillet 2021 placent désormais le pays au pied du mur. Le Programme de stabilité économique et financière présenté par les autorités tunisiennes en juin 2022 propose des mesures de nature à relever les défis auxquels le pays est confronté. Dans le sillage de cet élan réformateur, le Fonds monétaire international (FMI) a annoncé le 22 juin 2022 être « prêt à entamer, au cours des prochaines semaines, des négociations portant sur la mise en place d'un programme ».
