LOCATION: IMF HQ1, Meeting Halls A&B
Overview
Technology is transforming both the way we live and the policies that guide government decisions. Panelists will discuss the difficult balancing act that policymakers face between unlocking this potential to revolutionize fiscal policy formulation and implementation on the one hand, and societies’ privacy concerns and public sector capacity constraints on the other. They will also reflect on the implications of digitalization for countries at different stages of development and seek to identify ways in which countries can embark on the digital reform path.
