The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank are holding a conference this week with participants from around the world, including central bank governors, finance ministers, private sector participants, and civil society organizations. These organizations are considered integral to the international financial system.
One of the main challenges facing these institutions is how to involve all nations in their activities, not just those that were originally involved in economic integration after World War II. This approach may not be suitable for financial institutions like the World Bank and IMF, which were designed by the West to promote development and economic growth. Non-market economies like China may not be suited for participation.
Dan Katz, an adjunct fellow at the Manhattan Institute, and D.J. Nordquist, a senior advisor at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, have shared their perspectives on this issue. They believe that these organizations were not created to promote the interests of all nations, especially those with non-market economies. In their view, these institutions have always been focused on promoting Western values and interests in the global economy.
