5 moral hazard
FINANCE risque m moralThe US Congress is reluctant to fund President Clinton's promise of $210m … for the initiative, and Japan fears that a write off of its $10bn share will create a moral hazard. An added condition for indebted countries to fulfil, linking debt relief to poverty reduction, has also caused delays as poor countries struggle to prepare "poverty reduction strategy papers" to the satisfaction of their creditors. The result is that most of the neediest countries are getting nothing from the process.
