Dr. Abdulrahman A. Al-Hamidy - Managing Indebtedness: Global Cooperation for Sustainable Economic Growth","Statement delivers a policy-oriented address at the Development Committee’s one hundred and eighth meeting, focusing on the risks of high indebtedness and the urgency of international cooperation. It outlines how rising debt-to-GDP figures threaten economic stability, worsen financing conditions through higher debt-service costs, and trigger spillovers that divert resources from healthcare, education, and infrastructure. It highlights the roles of the IMF, World Bank, regional bodies, and the Arab Monetary Fund in supporting debt management through finance, technical assistance, and coordinated, consistent policy conditions.","Public Disclosure Authorized  \nPublic Disclosure Authorized  \nDEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE  \n(Joint Ministerial Committeeof the  \nBoards of Governors of the Bank and the Fundon theTransfer of Real Resources to Developing Countries)  \nONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTH MEETINGMARRAKECH,MOROCCO-OCTOBER 12,2023  \nDC/S/2023-0037  \nOctober 12.2023  \nStatement by  \nH.E.Dr.Abdulrahman A.Al-HamidyDirector General Chairman of the Board  \nArab Monetary Fund  \n# !

Indebtedness:Global Cooperation for Sustainable Economic Growth”\n\nIt is a delight for me to attend this regular meeting,and I would like to express my gratitude and appreciationto the Development Committee Secretariat for the kind invitation.In the intricate tapestry of the globaleconomy,the impending specter of debt casts an unavoidable shadow.Iam privileged to address you todayon a matter of the utmost importance:the risks of debt and the imperative need for international cooperationto mitigate their effects.The complexities of our contemporary world necessitate a coordinated response,and it is with great humility that I offer my perspective on this pressing matter.  \nThe global economy is interconnected,with economic threads linking continents to bind nations inprosperity and vulnerability.In recent years,the increase in debt has emerged as a critical challenge,threatening the fundamentals of economic stability.According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)estimates,the public debt-to-GDP ratio of emerging markets and developing economies increased from  \n51.4%in 2017 to 64.6%in 2022 while the total global debt-to-GDP ratio reached a record high of 254%,casting doubt on the ability of nations to meet their financial obligations without affecting the welfare oftheir citizens,especially with the significant increase of the debt service cost given the high interest rates.  \nThis specter of elevated debt brings about a cascade of consequences.National economies get stuck in acycle of debt servicing,which diverts funds from essential social expenditures such as healthcare,education,and infrastructure development.The instability of financial markets heightens the likelihood ofcontagion and increases the fragility of the global economic ecosystem.Under the weight of economicuncertainty,the capacity for dealing with economic disruptions diminishes,and the social contract betweengovernments and their citizens frays.  \nWhile nations struggle individually with debt challenges,the solutions reside in collective action.International organizations recognize the situation's urgency,and global efforts to address the potential risksof excessive debt have gained momentum.The IMF,the World Bank(WB),the Group of Twenty(G20),regional organizations such as the Arab Monetary Fund (AMF),and other multilateral organizations areactively engaged in dialogue and initiatives aimed at mitigating the risks associated with high levels of debt.However,the effectiveness of these institutions depends on the level of coordination and cooperation theyinspire.Due to the interconnectedness of the global economy,a fragmented response will producesuboptimal outcomes.To effectively manage and reduce the risks associated with high indebtedness,it isessential that nations join to share burdens,knowledge,strategies,and best practices.  \nInternational and regional financing and development institutions,such as the IMF,the WB,and the AMF,play a crucial role in assisting nations to navigate the complexities of debt management.These institutionsprovide financial resources,technical assistance,and policy advice to assist nations with debt-related issues.However,it is essential to ensure that the conditions related to financial support are consistent with therecipient countries'long-term economic goals and social welfare,avoiding excessive austerity measures","cbCaijky29HlvDB0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijky29HlvDB0","pdf",1000871,1,3,"English","en",105,"# Managing Indebtedness: Global Cooperation for
