Dear colleagues,
we are pleased to invite you to the OeNB-SUERF “Meet the author” seminar with Shekhar Aiyar, IMF
on Wednesday, 22 February 2023, in Vienna and online via Webex.
 Geo-Economic
Fragmentation and the Future of Multilateralism
After several decades of increasing global economic integration, the world is facing the risk of policy-driven geoeconomic fragmentation (GEF). This note explores the ramifications. It identifies multiple channels through
which the benefits of globalization were earlier transmitted, and along which, conversely, the costs of GEF are likely to fall, including trade, migration, capital flows, technology diffusion and the provision of global public goods. It explores the consequences
of GEF for the international monetary system and the global financial safety net. Finally, it suggests a pragmatic path forward for preserving the benefits of global integration and multilateralism.
