Public Policy
The Bretton Woods Committee’s Public Policy work focuses on strengthening U.S. engagement with and support for international financial institutions (IFIs). The Public Policy Members build support across the U.S. Congress, administration, IFI leadership, and the public for a forward-looking multilateral agenda and sound global economic policies. Through direct engagement and timely content that engages and informs policymakers and the public, the Members support the strategic value and targeted reforms of the IFIs.
