The EFSD Chief Economist Group continues the series of working papers on global financial safety net (GFSN) functioning. This working paper provides the analysis how the GFSN responded to pandemic on global level and on regional level (in the EFSD countries).
In addition to the classic elements of the GFSN (international reserves, bilateral swap arrangements, EFSD, and IMF) authors included in their analysis budget support provided by the multilateral development banks and the bilateral financial support as two additional elements of the GFSN. On the global level, the IMF implemented a comprehensive action package, affirming its place at the centre of the global financial safety net. Regional financing arrangements (RFAs) provided financial support and adapted their lending policies, toolboxes, and internal procedures to expedite the provision of emergency support to their members. From the currently existing RFAs, the Arab Monetary Fund and EFSD provided $2 billion and $650 million of financial support to member countries, respectively, partly in combination with IMF programmes. In case of the European Stability Mechanism, large-scale precautionary arrangements in the amount of €240 billion contributed to instilling confidence, which helped stabilise financial markets and reduce risks to the financial stability of the Eurozone. Furthermore, multilateral development banks (MDBs) stepped up at the early stage of the pandemic and supported their states with significant volumes of emergency financing.
EFSD recipient countries have drawn on almost all layers of the GFSN, except bilateral swap arrangements, to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 crisis. The funds disbursed from all sources in 2020 totalled at least $2.6 billion, from which $650 mln were approved by EFSD, almost 25% of the whole package. Their composition varies by country. Armenia received financing from the IMF. The Kyrgyz Republic had primarily bilateral financial assistance from Russia, the IMF, and MDBs for stabilization purposes. The IMF, EFSD, and MDBs were the three most significant sources for Tajikistan. In Belarus, Russian bilateral assistance and the EFSD were significant sources of stabilization financing.
