Policy Coherence

Constantine Michalopoulos

Chapter 11 in Developing Countries in the WTO, 2001, pp 228-243 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The coherence between trade and other international economic policies and initiatives that affect the development prospects of developing countries has received increased attention since the conclusion of the Uruguay Round agreements (URA). The WTO agreement explicitly calls for collaboration between the new institution and the Bretton Woods institution; that is, the IMF and the World Bank (see Article III of the Agreement Establishing the WTO). After the conclusion of the Agreement the WTO, the IMF and the World Bank engaged in a series of discussions that resulted in formal understandings among the three institutions aimed at ensuring better information flows and stronger collaboration between their management and staff.
