国际货币基金组织总裁克里斯塔利娜·格奥尔基耶娃周三警告称，当前的经济发展和人工智能的快速进步威胁着加深发达经济体与发展中经济体之间的鸿沟，尤其是在发展援助大幅下降的背景下。
IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva on Wednesday warned that current economic developments and the rapid advance of AI threaten to deepen the gulf between advanced and developing economies, especially given steep drops in development assistance.
她说，国际货币基金组织认识到其在需要时帮助各国融资的责任，并敦促基金会员国兑现增加对减贫与增长信托基金的资金承诺，该基金为低收入国家提供低息和零息贷款。
She said the International Monetary Fund recognized its responsibility to help finance countries when needed, and urged IMF member states to make good their pledges to increase funding for its Poverty Reduction and Growth Trust, which provides low- and zero-interest loans to low-income countries.
她还说，基金组织也在要求成员国补充灾害遏制与救济信托基金，这是一个专门基金，为最贫困和最脆弱的成员国提供债务服务减免和取消的补助金。
The IMF was also asking members to replenish the Catastrophe Containment and Relief Trust, a specialized fund that provides grants for debt-service relief and cancellation to the poorest and most vulnerable member countries, she said.
作为首位来自发展中经济体的国际货币基金组织总裁，格奥尔基耶娃表示，发达经济体的基准收益率上升正在向新兴市场和低收入国家溢出。她说，尽管总体债务负担有所缓解，但平均债务服务成本已从十年前的6%上升至收入的14%。
Georgieva, the first IMF chief from a developing country, said higher benchmark yields in advanced economies were spilling over to emerging markets and low-income countries. Average debt service costs had increased to 14% of revenue from 6% a decade ago, even as overall debt burdens have eased, she said.
她在泰国曼谷举行的国际货币基金组织和世界银行年会新闻发布会上表示：“分化的风险对那些已经落后最多的国家最为危险。”
"The risk of divergence is most dangerous for those that are already further behind," she told a press conference during the annual meetings of the IMF and World Bank in Bangkok, Thailand.
她还说，尽管这些国家多年来一直在“努力工作”，但燃料和食品成本上升、发展援助下降以及对风险较高投资的需求疲软，正在给许多这些国家带来压力。
Higher fuel and food costs, declining development assistance and subdued appetite for riskier investments were piling pressure on many of these countries, despite years of "hard work," she said.
国际货币基金组织本周警告称，人工智能投资热潮可能结束、债务水平增长以及中东冲突延长，将带来显著的增长和金融稳定风险。该组织预测2026年全球增长率为3.1%，并表示几乎所有发展中经济体预计将在2026年出现增长放缓。
The IMF this week flagged significant growth and financial stability risks from a potential end of the AI investment boom, growing debt levels and a prolonged Middle East conflict. It forecast global growth at 3.1% for 2026. Nearly all developing economies were expected to see slower growth in 2026, it said.
发展中经济体的官员们警告称，不断上升的债务服务成本正成为包容性增长的主要障碍。
Officials from developing countries are warning that rising debt service costs pose a major barrier to inclusive growth.
尼日利亚财政部长、二十四国集团（G24）主席泰沃·奥耶德莱周二表示，尽管面临预算赤字扩大的情况，发展中国家为其债务支付的费用比发达国家多5000亿美元。
Nigerian Finance Minister Taiwo Oyedele, who chairs the Group of 24 developing nations, on Tuesday said developing countries were paying $500 billion more for their debt than developed countries, despite facing widening budget deficits.
格奥尔吉耶娃表示，美国等发达经济体在未能自新冠疫情以来重建财政缓冲方面是“最严重的违规者”，而许多发展中国家则通过加强制度建设来提升韧性。
Advanced economies like the US were the "worst offenders" in failing to rebuild fiscal buffers since the COVID pandemic, while many developing countries had worked to increase their resilience by strengthening their institutions, Georgieva said.
她说，国际货币基金组织已对其面向低收入国家的减贫与增长信托基金（PRGT）进行重组，以将贷款规模提高三倍，但成员国需要履行其资金承诺，她未透露有关未兑现或延迟承诺的细节。
The IMF had restructured the PRGT, its fund for low-income countries, to triple lending to the countries, but members need to honour their funding commitments, she said, giving no details on missed or delayed pledges.
她还表示，国际货币基金组织也在鼓励对灾害缓解信托基金（CCRT）的捐助，该基金因近年来频繁使用而急需补充资源。
The IMF was also encouraging contributions to the CCRT, which she said was in urgent need of replenishment given frequent use of the facility in recent years.
格奥尔吉耶娃表示，她对塞内加尔——作为二十国集团共同框架下最新寻求债务减免的国家——持乐观态度，认为该国将能够快速完成重组进程。她指出，国际货币基金组织已就向该西非国家提供22亿美元贷款计划达成工作人员级别的协议。
Georgieva said she was optimistic that Senegal, the latest country to seek relief under the Group of 20 Common Framework for Debt Treatments, would get through the restructuring process quickly, noting that the IMF had reached staff-level agreement on a $2.2 billion lending program for the West African country.
