| dc.description | <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <p>In 2021, the IMF issued and distributed $650bn worth of Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study explores the unique characteristics of SDRs and provides an overview of the role of SDRs in the MENA region.</p> <p>Using four countries as case studies (Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon and Tunisia), it analyses how SDRs can be transferred from central banks to governments for fiscal use; outlines how the 2021 SDR allocations have been used; and explores priority avenues for fiscal spending aiming at sustainable and inclusive economic recovery that contributes to reducing inequality and avoiding further austerity in the MENA region.</p> </body> </html> | en_US |
