Expanding digital financial inclusion starts with understanding what’s holding it back. A course from @LRojasSuarez shows how to identify country-specific constraints using a simple, data-driven decision tree. 🌳 Explore the framework: decisiontree.cgdev.org

Shocks are hitting low-income countries more often—and too often turning into debt crises. "Better Debt Shock Absorbers for Poor Countries: A Proposal" cgdev.org/publication/be… @CGDev

When shocks hit, poor countries are forced to choose: service debt or respond to the crisis. @Nancyb_Lee, @LRojasSuarez, Samuel Matthews, and James Reid propose built-in “shock absorbers” in debt contracts—pausing payments to create fiscal space and help avoid default. cgdev.org/publication/be…

BRICS among the countries benefitting most from Trumps changes in tariffs following Supreme Court decision. @LRojasSuarez & Alba calculated effective tariff rates: 10% rate + (tariffs on steel etc)*(how much countries export). 45 line shows no change. cgdev.org/blog/one-tarif…

Digital financial inclusion has the power to transform lives—but LMICs remain excluded from these vital services. @LRojasSuarez introduces a new course to help policymakers identify country-specific barriers using an analytical decision tree framework. Learn more:

"Although numerous factors can constrain financial inclusion, a key challenge for policymakers is diagnosing the country-specific root causes of these shortcomings and determining which actions to prioritize. That’s the gap the Decision Tree fills." 🌳 Learn more about the Decision Tree framework in this FinDev interview with @CGDev's Liliana Rojas-Suarez. findevgateway.org/interview/2025… via @FinDevGateway

@FinDevGateway It was a pleasure to discuss the Decision Tree for Improving Digital Financial Inclusion with @FinDevGateway. At @CGDev, we hope that policymakers find this online course to be a powerful tool for identifying the binding constraint hindering progress in financial inclusion.

To increase digital financial inclusion, policymakers need to understand the constraints specific to their country. A new course from @LRojasSuarez teaches an analytical framework (a decision tree) for doing just that. Explore the decision tree⬇️🌳 decisiontree.cgdev.org

Waves of US tariffs have created a complex trade landscape—but announced rates don't necessarily reflect the true tariff burden. A new tracker from @LRojasSuarez & @IgnacioAlbe calculates effective tariff rates using country- & product-level trade data: bit.ly/4kLOxRn
