Background
On the eve of the 80th anniversary annual meetings of the IMF and World Bank, the International Finance Forum is pleased to invite you to attend an online event to discuss the the future of the Bretton Woods institutions. We are delighted and honored that Lord Mark Malloch Brown (link to his bio—see below) will join us for this virtual seminar and make a presentation on the Bretton Woods @80 Initiative in which he is playing a key role as a member of the group of global external advisors which has been established to guide this effort (press release on “IMF and World Bank Group Announce Joint Bretton Woods at 80 Initiative.”)

Working with the leadership of the Fund and the Bank, the Bretton Woods @80 Initiative is consulting with a broad range of stakeholders to review the long-term forces that will shape the future of the global economy; how multilateralism may evolve; and what this might mean for the role and work of the IMF and World Bank in the period ahead.

Among the questions being asked are: What kinds of “scenarios” should be taken into account when thinking about the future of the global economy? Which lessons from the past 80 years can be drawn upon to help better navigate these future challenges? How can the Bretton Woods institutions be better equipped and—as needed— reformed to bolster international cooperation and serve their global membership even more effectively in a vastly more complex and challenging world than the one in which they were established 80 years ago?
