Fostering Transparency in Sovereign Debt

What does transparency mean when it comes to debt contracts? What should be disclosed and what should remain confidential? And how can we highlight good practice? In this episode of DebtTalks, Anna Gelpern speaks with Paola Subacchi about the new initiative Public Debt is Public which Anna is leading in collaboration with Queen Mary University of London. The project focuses on countries with limited resources and aims to create a platform where sovereign debt documentation is publicly available, searchable, and easy to access.
