In a VUCA world where nothing can be predicted, does the World Bank think of advocating the necessity of creation of any contingency fund by the member countries for meeting the unforeseen economic disasters? Can there be a role of World Bank towards this?

Dear Mr. Malpass,You have raised the alarm bell on numerous occasions since the start of the Covid crisis on the increasing debt burden faced by many countries worldwide, calling for an increase in debt transparency. An important factor that explained the increase in debt levels of countries in Africa in particular relates to resource backed loans. Most of the time there is very little transparency in these arrangements and they only come to light once a country is in a situation of debt distress. What can be done to improve transparency and also ensure the participation of this type of creditors, the commodity traders, in debt relief?
