Global imbalances

Their efforts to self insure, by, say, building up their foreign exchange reserves, perpetuate global economic imbalances.

Conceptually, the global imbalances can be decomposed into three components cyclical, structural and institutional.

How can better international surveillance and coordination of macroeconomic policies of developed and developing countries contribute to the ordered elimination of the existing global imbalances?

Greece fully participates in the policies formulated by the European Union and the various international organizations that contribute to the economic development of all areas of the world in order to redress existing imbalances.

Despite the problems of representation, IMF is the only institution where developing countries have a voice in assessing the macroeconomic imbalances of major economies and could eventually have a voice on global macroeconomic policy consistency.

However, perturbations cause the orbital elements to change over time.

And these hackers had a word for those mysterious bugs in telegraph systems that they called bugs.

Institutionally, new rules get enacted to correct previous dysfunctions.

Our collective commitment and efforts are needed to correct the imbalances and disparities in the world.

Their economic vulnerability continued to increase, whether because of adjustments to global imbalances or economic dislocations due to natural disasters or situations of conflict, with the result that it was even more difficult to achieve the Millennium Development Goals.

Finally, there are institutional factors, particularly in international monetary arrangements, that contribute to global imbalances.

Even if the imbalances were sustainable, or could be adjusted in a smooth manner, the magnitude and skewed distribution of the imbalances suggest a less than efficient and equitable allocation of global resources between developed and developing countries.

Efforts to strengthen the various arms of the United Nations system are needed to tackle institutional imbalances.

Equally, each component has different policy implications for the adjustment of the global imbalances.

However, as discussed above, many factors other than the relative prices of tradable goods determine the imbalances, particularly in the case of the dominant reserve currency.

Distortions in the world market for agricultural products, the main exports of developing countries, continued to undermine the ability of the agricultural sector in those countries to contribute meaningfully to economic development and the fight against hunger and poverty.

To answer these questions, it is important to understand the imbalances underlying dynamics.

Aware as we are of our common responsibilities towards the least developed countries, we should not exacerbate the imbalances of our planet.

Each component of the global imbalances has different implications for the world economy in terms of sustainability, efficiency and equity.

These imbalances can be redressed only with great effort, if at all, and only if one accepts a decade of stagnation.

To continue to engage all partners on the issue of global systemic imbalances in areas such as trade, finance, money and technology.

The Committee urges the State party to promote equal access to social benefits and social services by striving to correct regional imbalances.

So what we've been able to do is to pinpoint where these disturbances are in the brain, and we've been able to intervene within these circuits in the brain to either turn them up or turn them down.

For any reform or trade regime to have a meaningful impact, these distortions should be corrected first.

It was necessary to provide larger margins of safety to deal with financial imbalances, which built up during cyclical upswings and downturns.

A completely fixed exchange rate rules out monetary policy initiative, and consequently makes adjustment to large external imbalances very difficult to carry out.

But the most serious thing is that the report, if approved, would further accentuate the imbalances that serve as its reference point and its starting point.

The first concerns the growing imbalances in the monetary and financial systems that expose the global economy to shocks that are beyond any national capacity to control.
