Its Time for a New Finance Paradigm in Development /w Arthur Wood
Description
The current chasm between the rhetoric of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the capital available for development leads to why a new financial paradigm is now needed.
UNCTAD projects that we are now 20% below where we started in 2015 - ergo we have spent 3.2 trillion to have gone backwards.
The context cannot be ignored: the twin pillars of demographics – ageing populations in the West/China with substantive unfunded liabilities in health and pensions on the one hand and the pincer of youth populations in the developing world on the other hand – exacerbate instability.
The existential threats of world resource usage now estimated by the World Resources Institute at 1.7 times the planet’s ability to replenish.
Arthur Wood is leading authority on New Financial paradigm that addresses UNSDGS.
