Navigating Just Energy Transition Through Large-scale Skill Development Program

In 2024, debtor countries will pay the International Monetary Fund (IMF) an effective annual interest rate of up to 8 basis points. The current lending rate policy is procyclical, it amplifies the global spill-over ofmonetary policy and makes it harder for IMF programs to promote economic recoveries. We recommend setting a cap on the lending rate and/or devising a surcharge-sliding scale.
