“We’ve made huge progress in the past 50 years, but the question is: can we now maintain that momentum? We need to accelerate it. If we continue with business as usual, we won’t get there by 2030.”
Listen to the first part of “the future of development finance” with Sir Suma Chakrabarti, the EBRD President.
