This book uses institutional data to examine and analyze the
current governance structures of Multilateral Financial
Institutions (MFIs) with the ultimate goal of reforming MFI
governance models to be more responsive to the needs of developing
countries. Founded in the post-World War II era, MFIs, collectively
known as the Bretton Woods Financial Institutions (BWFIs), were
created to promote global economic development and financial
stability. This book argues, however, that the governance
structures and policies of the MFIs have been biased in favour of
developed country members, excluding less economically advanced
countries from decision-making processes and perpetuating the
economic status quo. Considering the inability of MFIs to
adequately respond to the financial needs of developing countries,
the book raises an alternative proposal for BWFI reform, based on
the following criteria: (i) encouraging development incentives,
(ii) favouring development learning through knowledge transfer and
easing its appropriation by developing countries, and (iii) guiding
and facilitating access to private international financial markets.
Combining historical economic analysis with policy recommendations
for the future, this book will be of particular interest to
students and researchers of development economics, governance, and
MFIs, as well as practitioners working with the institutions
studied.
