What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

The executive boards of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund approved proposed reforms to their joint framework for evaluating the debt of low-income countries. This joint review, the first since 2017, recommended changes to better analyze domestic debt and incorporate long-term development challenges, including climate change. The revised framework, which assesses a country's capacity to take on new debt, is expected to become operational in the second half of 2027.
