Policy Brief
As the Bretton Woods institutions and the UN approach their eightieth anniversaries, they face challenges to their foundational principles of multilateralism. The rise of plurilateralism through regional financing institutions and organizations like the AIIB, BRICS, G20, and G7, is reshaping global governance. These shifts demand urgent reforms to the governance structures of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, to reflect the interests of emerging economies. Without such reforms, the credibility of these institutions is at risk. Navigating this transition requires innovative hybrid approaches that balance inclusivity and cooperation with the flexibility needed to address contemporary global challenges.
