But it is important, as has been underlined frequently, also by ECB President Mario Draghi, that strategies to restore confidence and to ensure refinancing are consistent, oriented toward the long term and based on a reliable political support by the country concerned.
To do that, the President sets out six key strategic themes: •  Overcoming poverty and spurring sustained growth in the poorest countries, especially in Africa;  •  Helping rebuild post-conflict and failing states;  •  Producing an appropriate business model to help middle income countries meet their development goals;  •  Fostering regional and global public goods;  •  Promoting development and economic opportunities in the Arab world;  •  Developing the role of the Bank as “the knowledge bank”, a brains trust of applied experience.
