Folks, the G7 Finance communiqué is out. What does it tell us? Takeaways👇 (1/n) @e3g @KateLLevick @ronan_wifi @aldenmeyer @AlexScottLondon @TPTaskforce

First, let's just restate that this forum matters: we don't have much of an alternative these days to advance climate-safe & inclusive policy, because the G20 is broken for now. I wrote a short calling-card piece on the G7 Finance outcomes we need (2/n).

Quick overall take is that the communiqué is a let-down. There are a couple of positives on public finance side (#MDBs, supply chain resilience), but very disappointing on private finance. They need to get more cutting-edge on this, stat (2/n).

Top 50 countries in #China 🇨🇳debt portfolio and their quality
With #China now being a central creditor, question is whether it wants to work alone or with others, including the #IMF & how it would engage with the other creditors and with the #MDBs.

1/4. This evening at #COP27 #Barbados told @COP27P: "We would not wish to come out of this COP without a clear definitive language within the text and the cover text that addresses #LossAndDamage."
2/4. Support on #LossAndDamage, "has to include a reform of #MDBs. It has to address a pathway for accessing #Finance. It has to deal with the scale of finance which must be commensurate with the scale of the crisis which we did not ask for and cannot afford to finance."
3/4. The intervention continued: "Circumstances where we are highly debt burdened because the scale of financing development far outstrips our capacity. There is an urgent need for us to have the fiscal space to deal with crisis and deal with development issues."

Wir haben ein Problem:

Täglich rufen #Coronaleugner in den (Heimat-) Büros der #MdBs an und beschweren sich über Maßnahmen. Wirklich, die sind da sehr aktiv, auch mit E-Mails.

Wir vernünftigen machen: NICHTS.

Ratet wer als Bürger wahr genommen wird? Rrrrrichtig!

Ich bin grad so sauer, dass ich im Heimatbüro eines führenden #CSU #MdB angerufen habe. In Berlin kommst eh nicht durch.

Wir haben seit Tagen 0 verfügbare Intensivbetten im Landkreis. CSU: #kfrage 🤦‍♀️

Also frage ich: Durchseuchung, jetzt der heiße Scheiß?

Wir haben jetzt 24 Minuten telefoniert, jeder von Euch hier ist gut informiert!

Werdet tätig! Die #Coronaleugner sind es schon lang + da die Mehrheit still ist, werden sie als “Bürger” wahrgenommen. Findet Ihr scheiße? Dann hört auf zu twittern & RUFT AN!

Während & kurz nach Ende des Angriffskrieges #Aserbaidschan|s auf #Bergkarabach 2020 entstanden 2 Seiten die vermehrt Beiträge zum Thema generierten. Ihr Name soll den Anschein erwecken neutral & regionsübergreifend zu sein:
» Kaukasus im Fokus
» Deutsches Zentrum für Südkaukasus
"#Kaukasus im Fokus", geführt von Asif Masimov (Vorstandskollege von zwei leitenden #SOCAR-Angestellten (!) im Berliner "Azerbaijan Student Network"), hieß bis Nov. 2020 "Alumniportal #Aserbaidschan", das in Kontakt mit mehreren #MdBs stand, darunter Olav Gutting und Marcus Held.
Das "Deutsche Zentrum für Südkaukasus" mit Sitz auf dem Berliner Kudamm wurde ca. 3 Wochen nach dem Angriffskrieg Aserbaidschans auf #Bergkarabach erstellt. Unter selbiger Anschrift befindet sich zufällig auch der Aliyev-nahe Verein "Aserbaidschanisches Haus in Deutschland e.V."

New paper with @DZerfu & @migsarmiento17 on how multilateral development banks can affect loan terms in the syndicated loan market, forthcoming in the Journal of International Money and Finance. A short summary of the findings: Image
1. #MDBs’ participation is associated with higher
borrowing costs and longer maturities—signaling a greater willingness by MDBs to finance risky projects which may not be financed by the private sector Image
2. #MDBs are more likely to lend to borrowers located in countries with high credit and financial risk Image
