As the WorldBankGroup negotiates its Climate Change Action Plan (CCAP), a new @gdp-center.bsky.social's blog by @rishirbhandary.bsky.social, Marilou Jane Uy and Irene Monasterolo argues the question should not be whether a CCAP is needed, but how it can be improved👇 www.bu.edu/gdp/2026/06/...

the IMF's income position report for 2024 shows how the Fund is in great financial shape... www.imf.org/en/Publicati... it doesn't have to sit on 90 million ounces of gold. @marinazucker.bsky.social and I have some ideas on what it could do instead: www.bu.edu/gdp/2024/11/...

In 2009/10 the IMF sold gold to finance its operations+subsidize PRGT Gold prices are at historic highs — a good moment to sell more gold and replenish the Catastrophe Containment and Relief Trust (CCRT) 🧵 @rishirbhandary.bsky.social and I make the case here www.bu.edu/gdp/2024/11/...
