Fed up with the paternalism of the Global North’s old and shrinking aid model?

But want to see in its place not isolationism but cooperation between equals?

Then have a look at - and consider being part of building - the growing momentum for global public investment.

Excellent investigation by @icij.org Not just one crypto exchange hidden inside another but use of multiple jurisdictions, no surprise to see 'respectable' Malta involved. “The promise of blockchain tracing was that we could have transparency. But this is just a story"

Kyrrex exploited technology and shell companies while serving suspected fraudsters and pro-Russian military activists, even as its owners claimed the exchange followed anti-money laundering rules.

Bolivia scraps its wealth tax claiming it discourages 'investment', scraps taxes on financial transactions and decides to integrate crypto in the name of financial inclusion. A 'market-oriented approach' aka financialising the economy. Very depressing.

Good news - the UK government is NOT caving to Trump’s pressure and will not be scrapping the Digital Services Tax (it would have meant a £5 billion tax break...)

Between 2020-2025, almost 40% of external public debt repayments from LICs went to commercial lenders. #Debt is now costlier 💰 and harder to resolve.
The #G20 has failed to deliver, it is time for #SovereignDebt resolution to move to the #UN.

🌍🔥As leaders promise climate action at #COP30, Nairobi negotiates a #UNTaxConvention deciding who pays. $2.6T/year could fund climate action via fair taxes & stopping corporate tax havens. Climate justice must be central.

🏆MAJOR MOMENT🏆 in #UNtaxConvention talks!
India reaffirmed a game-changing definition of "illicit financial flows" which INCLUDES global tax abuse. This has been kept out of the definition for years, preventing countries from tackling the problem head on. Not anymore.

It's day 4 of #COP30 & #UNtaxConvention negotiations, & so far we've missed out on $21 billion in tax to tax cheating multinational corporations & to the under-taxation of extreme wealth. The problem isn't scarcity, it's weakened tax sovereignty. #ChangeTaxNotClimate
