💨 Abstract

The World Bank report released on Sunday reveals that the 26 poorest countries, home to 40% of the most impoverished people, are more in debt since 2006 and more vulnerable to shocks, like natural disasters. These economies are poorer today, on average, than before the COVID-19 pandemic, despite the rest of the world's recovery.
