The meeting’s goals are to build upon the conclusion of the report of the UN Commission on Reform of the International Monetary and Financial System that the dollar-backed global reserve system must be reformed. Key thinkers and policymakers will come together to address the following questions:
- What are the different options for reform of the global reserve system; what is their economic desirability and political feasibility?
- Are there Pareto improving reforms to be found that are of benefit to the major players? Can a new global institutional framework facilitate smoother and more growth-oriented realignments of domestic policies than the current one?
- Which options are (or should be) most favored by developing countries in general and BRICs in particular?
- What role is there for regional schemes, and how should they interact with global arrangements?
- How can an orderly transition from the current system to a new system be managed?
Please revisit this page after our meeting for more on this extremely timely topic.
