With reference to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the study examines the impact of sovereign debt on inequality, finding that: 1) a high level of debt leads to worsening inequality within the state; 2) the current high debt levels in low-and middle-income countries widen the existing gap with high-income countries. The study therefore highlights the need for a new debt restructuring mechanism that, combined with sustainable financing, would support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals

Abstract

With reference to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the study examines the impact of sovereign debt on inequality, finding that: 1) a high level of debt leads to worsening inequality within the state; 2) the current high debt levels in low-and middle-income countries widen the existing gap with high-income countries. The study therefore highlights the need for a new debt restructuring mechanism that, combined with sustainable financing, would support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals
