Task Force Report No. 48
Task Force Report
The world’s opinion of the United States and of U.S. policy has plummeted in the wake of the war in Iraq.

Task Force Report No. 25
Task Force Report
The international community will not make real headway in crisis prevention if private creditors—and particularly large commercial banks—can escape from bad loans to emerging economies at relatively low cost, according to this independent Task Force report. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) should therefore return to smaller rescue packages for country crises that do not threaten the performance of the global financial system. In extreme cases, the IMF should also require as a condition for its own emergency assistance that debtors be engaged in serious and fair discussions on debt rescheduling with their private creditors.
