IMF urges governments to target cost-of-living aid at poorest households
Original: Governments should target cost-of-living support to poorer households - IMF https://www.standard.co.uk/business/business
The International Monetary Fund says governments should direct cost-of-living support specifically to poorer households rather than broad measures. The advice was reported by the London Evening Standard, with the article also referencing Andy Burnham and the UK Prime Minister, suggesting the guidance is being applied to debates over British economic policy.
Why now: Ongoing pressure from high living costs is pushing debates over how governments should design financial support.
