In the fiscal year 2022–2023, the Indian economy is predicted to develop at a rate of 7%, according to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. As the managing director’s global policy agenda was being reviewed at the IMF headquarters’ Plenary Meeting of the International Monetary and Financial Committee, she made the remarks.
India is expected to be the fastest-growing major economy in 2023, according to both the IMF and the World Bank. This, according to Sitharaman, is due to favorable domestic policy conditions and the government’s emphasis on structural reforms, which have maintained robust domestic economic activity.
Sitharaman emphasized the value of digitalization throughout the discussion, particularly the role of digital public infrastructure in revolutionizing access and fostering a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem in India. In order to develop answers to urgent global crises that disproportionately affect the poorest and most vulnerable populations, she also emphasized the necessity for stakeholder participation.
Sitharaman also spoke about the global roundtable on sovereign debt, which offered other vulnerable nations a positive path forward through multilateral cooperation. She expressed how happy India was to have been a part of the team that offered answers for Surinam and Sri Lanka.
She also asked G20 participants to embrace multilateral initiatives going forward and emphasized the importance of constructive involvement in conversation to address the problem of global fragmentation.
Additionally, Nirmala Sitharaman, the finance minister for the Union, claimed on Thursday that the Group of 20 (G20) members were more in agreement that any new legislation pertaining to crypto currencies must be coordinated internationally.
