Garg emphasizes on need to strengthen institutions like IMF; calls for quota reforms

15 Oct 2018 Evaluate

Emphasizing on the need to strengthen institutions like International Monetary Fund (IMF) to deal with the current financial crisis, Economic Affairs Secretary S C Garg called for quota reforms so that share of developing nations increases in line with their growing economic position. He also pointed out that protectionism, trade tensions and tightening of financial conditions are challenges for the world. In the context of these challenges, he said that the time for building buffer and policy action by the Emerging Market Economies (EMDs) is not there.

Garg has stated that a suitable approach could be the association of the IMF, being at the centre of the GFSN (global financial safety net), at an earlier stage rather than when crisis has already occurred. Hence, he said the strengthening of this Multilateral Institution is crucial. It noted that both, enhancement in the Quantum of Quota Resources and Realignment of Voting Shares should take place so that Quota Shares of EMDCs (Emerging Market & Developing Countries) increase in line with its growing relative economic position in the world. Besides, he mentioned that India had supported the capital increase of the World Bank Group with the expectation that it will deliver on its core development responsibilities articulated in the Forward Look.

The Secretary further said that the additional capital would be put to work expeditiously and leveraged to enhance International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) lending volumes and International Finance Corporation (IFC) investments. He added that Human Capital Index has severe flaws and therefore it will not succeed in focusing the attention of the world on building the right kind of human capital, which new technologies will need. He also welcomed the emphasis placed by the World Bank on building human capital but said that he is not so certain about the Human Capital Index in its current form.
