ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
In this episode of DebtTalks, Paola Subacchi and Martin Kessler explore what happens when a country begins to face mounting debt pressures. What are the early warning signs, and when does concern turn into crisis? The discussion also delves into the options available to heavily indebted countries – from restructuring to relief – and take a closer look at how the IMF’s Debt Sustainability Analysis shapes decisions along the way.
