国际货币基金组织总裁克里斯塔利娜·格奥尔基耶娃在新加坡呼吁各国政府立即采取行动,控制财政支出以应对持续上升的全球债务问题1。她警告称,全球债务与GDP比率已达到二战以来最高水平,并可能在未来数年内达到100%1。债券收益率近期跳升至数十年高位,进一步提高了政府借贷成本1。
格奥尔基耶娃强调,各国需要做出"非常艰难的政治选择",实施可信的中期财政调整计划1。她指出:"我们不能继续延迟必要的政策行动——你们拥有工具,现在要有智慧去使用它们"1。她还建议央行采取谨慎的鹰派政策以应对通胀压力,为必要的利率提升做好准备1。
IMF总裁同时警告能源冲击、债务增长和人工智能风险正威胁全球经济增长1。不过,她同时指出,如果有效实施人工智能技术,可能为全球经济增长增加0.5个百分点1。
International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva has called on governments worldwide to curtail fiscal spending in response to escalating global debt levels.123 Speaking in Singapore, Georgieva warned that the global debt-to-GDP ratio has reached its highest level since World War II and could reach 100 percent within the coming years, while rising bond yields are increasing the cost of government borrowing.1
Georgieva emphasized the urgency of immediate policy action, stating: "We cannot continue to delay necessary policy actions—you have the tools, and now you need the wisdom to use them."1 She stressed that countries require "very difficult political choices" and called on central banks to stand ready to raise interest rates to combat inflation pressures.1 The IMF chief also identified energy shocks, mounting debt, and artificial intelligence risks as significant threats to global economic growth.123
According to IMF research, effective implementation of AI could add 0.5 percentage points to global economic growth, though Georgieva warned of substantial labor market disruption risks from the technology.1 Meanwhile, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer John Hunt indicated his commitment to continuing his predecessor Rachel Reeves's fiscal framework, which balances day-to-day spending with tax revenues while borrowing only for investment.1
