multilateral development banks (MDBs) has secured wide backing of these entities, people familiar with the deliberations told ET. The MDB reform programme will be taken up at the G20 finance ministers and central bank governors' (FMCGB) meeting in Marrakech under India's presidency on October 12-13. The reforms blueprint is derived from the report of the Independent Expert Group (IEG), co-chaired by 15th Finance Commission chairman NK Singh and former US treasury secretary Larry Summers, set up by the G20. The group recently submitted the second volume of its report outlining a roadmap for implementation of MDB reforms. The panel was set up under India's G20 presidency with a mandate to develop a road map for an updated MDB ecosystem — with milestones and timelines — that includes recommendations on the vision statement, incentive structure, operational approaches, and financial capacity. The G20 FMCBG meet, the last such meeting under the Indian presidency, will discuss the contours of the proposed roadmap at its meeting. Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman chaired a meeting with the heads of MDBs last Friday in the run-up to the upcoming Marrakech ministerial to discuss the reforms suggested by the IEG. Some MDBs have already begun work on the IEG recommendations and are expected to adopt these after shareholder approvals, said one of the persons quoted above. «There is a wider acceptance of the need to carry out such reforms… Most MDBs have shown inclination and will take proposals to their shareholders,» the person said, adding that enhanced use of private capital and wider instruments such as hybrid capital is in focus. Some countries have expressed reservations on the proposed reform roadmap.

G20 finance ministers and central bankers, under India’s presidency, in Marrakech next week, the Development Committee of the World Bank has proposed the creation of additional annual lending capacity of more than $100 billion over the next decade for the multilateral lender to run a more inclusive agenda on climate change and poverty alleviation.

G20 Independent Expert Group on strengthening multilateral development banks (MDBs) will next month come out with a roadmap and a detailned plan to reform these institutions including the World Bank and Asia Development Bank. The details include proposals that would enable MDBs to harness private capital apart from stepping up their financial capacity, the group's co-chair NK Singh said. «We are going into greater granularity on how you really achieve this private capital--- what incentive, risk mitigation can you do,» Singh, who is also chairman of the Fifteenth Finance Commission, told ET in an interview. The report would dwell on an efficient operating model for the MDBs that would be appropriate to meet emergent challenges and develop the ability to harness innovative capital — hybrid and blended — and coordination among them. It would also consider cohesion and symmetry of purpose that can «come within the MDB family to improve the overall capability and reach», Singh said. The group, co-chaired by Singh and former US Treasury secretary Larry Summers, had submitted the first volume of its report at the G20 finance ministers and central bank governors meeting in July. The recommendations figured in the New Delhi G20 Leaders' Declaration. The report put private capital requirement of MDBs at $500 billion. Singh said the roadmap specified in the second part of the report will also detail the sequencing of the reforms. "...the low-hanging fruit, in my view, is clearly the optimisation of the balance sheet," Singh said, adding that other issues including getting more out of the existing equity itself, recalibrating risk appetite, and creative use of guarantees would be in focus.
