De/Cypher Lighthouse China’s Growing Role in Multilateral Development Banks The recently concluded #BRICS Summit in #Kazan left much to be discussed, but one of the most notable takeaways was China’s growing ambition in international multilateral governance. In his address, President Xi Jinping made it clear: “BRICS countries should play a leading role in reforming global governance… The New Development Bank (NDB) should be expanded and strengthened.” China’s growing influence in #MDBs is changing institutions and global development finance. It has given the Global South much-needed resources and innovative financing mechanisms, but it raises governance, transparency, and geopolitical balance concerns. China’s multilateral objectives raise the question: will they create a cooperative global order or deepen geopolitical divides and create new dependencies?

A new International Monetary Fund working paper by the all-Japan team of Tatsushi Okuda and Tomohiro Tsuruga, both formerly with the Bank of Japan. This paper looks to quantify the loss of international diversification benefits for major advanced economies, which have a significant presence in international financial markets, under geoeconomic fragmentation. The authors perform counterfactual simulations under different hypothetical fragmentation scenarios in which these economies are unable to trade with geopolitically distant countries, as measured by voting disagreement on foreign policy issues at the United Nations General Assembly meetings during 2012-2021. The simulation results imply a potentially significant loss of international diversification benefits of financial openness for the considered advanced economies by limiting trading to partner countries that are geopolitical allies with highly synchronized business cycles.

1moI liked this publication very much. In development work we often talk about replicating success, but less often do we engage in deliberate attempts to capture lessons worth replicating. The case studies here do exactly that. Great work by Bart Édes in structuring the case studies and by several ADB teams, especially the Shaanxi Mountain Road Safety Project that recently won a global award from the International Road Federation (IRF Global) thanks to great work by Rebecca Stapleton and Katherine Guy and Steve Lewis-Workman.
