Abstract / Description
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of the global financial crisis on emerging and developing economies (EDEs) in two dimensions. First, the impact on poverty, inequality and human development and second the impact on access to finance by small and medium firms, small farmers and low income households. In this assessment, a distinction is made between the relatively strong Asian economies and low income countries affected by civil wars, conflicts, natural disasters, geographical and location challenges. Finally, recommendations are made by EDE country type about required reforms.
