Jim Yong Kim, President of the World Bank Group, discusses the problem of global inequality. He speaks about the
commitment for building the platform which would bring the
expertise of not only the World Bank, but the International
Monetary Fund (IMF) and other multilateral development
banks, to prepare projects and bridge the gap in what is a
market failure. He speaks about the companies that were
represented, sovereign wealth funds, the countries that had
signed on, including China, which has made very strong
commitments to finding a price on carbon for the world. He
highlights about the need for some source of funding that
will disperse immediately on the occasion of the next
epidemic, and the global community needs to come
together to decide what the response will be. Christine Lagarde, IMF Managing Director, commended Kim on his efforts in the fight against Ebola. Lagarde noted that much of Africa is growing and creating jobs. The two fielded questions on Ebola, the role of China in these institutions, China’s investment-led growth strategy, and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. |
