En el marco de la apertura oficial de la Asamblea General de Naciones Unidas este martes, vienen a la mente las palabras pronunciadas hace un año por el Secretario General António Guterres, en que instó a los países a invertir al menos el 10% del PIB mundial para la recuperación de la Covid-19.

Washington DC – The UK should stop blocking attempts to implement a global minimum corporate tax that enables developing countries to raise much-needed funds for the Covid-19 response, according to the Financial Transparency Coalition (FTC).

The vast majority of Covid-19 recovery funds have gone to big corporations instead of toward welfare, small firms, or those working in the informal economy, according to the first major analysis of public bailout funds disbursed in developing countries during the pandemic.
