Summary
Public investment for a brighter future is increasingly difficult due to large financing needs, surging borrowing costs and shorter loan maturities. Many developing countries are forced to choose between servicing debt or investing in education, health and social protection for their people. The Survey for 2024 examines how countries in the region, donors, multilateral development banks and credit rating agencies can boost the availability of affordable and long-term financing for Governments.
