Zusammenfassung
  • The long-term trend toward rising inequality in many countries raises major challenges for economic growth, social cohesion and financial stability. Additionally, short term shocks due to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic increase the urgency for the World Bank to respond. Author Jürgen K. Zattler writes that neither the drivers of inequality nor their policy implications have been adequately absorbed by policymakers or reflected in World Bank policies. In the face of this crisis, he argues the World Bank should immediately work towards establishing a shared institutional understanding, or official “corporate view,” on inequality to better link its enhanced analysis to country programs and projects.
