Global Development Finance 2009

The International Finance Team monitors and analyzes international financial developments and their impact on growth and poverty reduction in developing countries. The main areas of emphasis include financial markets in industrial countries, private capital flows to developing countries, economic policies in developing countries that affect their ability to benefit from international financial integration, and official flows. The Team produces Volume I: Analysis and Statistical Appendix of the annual Global Development Finance, which is released in the Spring. Among other staff in the Bank, the Team works closely with the Data Group (DECDG), Financial Sector group (FSE) and the Debt Department (PRMED).

Data related to the Global Development Finance is available from the companion online publication—Prospects for the Global Economy, which features insightful calculators and simulation tools; valuable one-page briefs summarizing countries' external financial position; and timely analysis of worldwide economic prospects and risk. Prospects for the Global Economy is also available in French and Spanish.
