Kenya’s Ruto: Time to Redesign Global Debt Systems

“There is now consensus on the need for a development-oriented sovereign debt architecture where public debt is an instrument for development, not a trap for distress,” the president said at the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development on Monday.

Ruto calls for:

🟠Debt as a tool for growth, not crisis

🟠Lower borrowing costs and fair credit assessments

🟠Stronger global economic governance that empowers Africa

“Africa is ready, poised, and prepared to become the next frontier of global production and innovation. … The world’s and Africa’s futures are inseparable. … Africa is not asking for favors. We are asking for fairness, partnership, and investment.”
