The Initiative was put in place by the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in 1996 and enhanced in 1999. The HIPC Debt Initiative addresses a key obstacle to economic growth and poverty reduction, but it also contains multiple and overly-ambitious objectives. This work is an independent evaluation which assesses the progress and prospects of the HIPC Debt Initiative achieving its objectives.World Bank e-Library.Debts, ExternalDeveloping countriesDebt reliefDeveloping countriesDebts, ExternalDebt relief336.3/435/091724Gautam Madhur1960-1812828World Bank.Operations Evaluation Department.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910964035603321Debt relief for the poorest4473407UNINA
