Zambia like most nations on the continent have turned to the IMF seeking bailout packages to avoid economic collapse.

According to a new report from the Financial Stability Board (FSB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the pandemic has created “significant challenges” for the ongoing effort to improve oversight of the global financial system — a project known as the G20 Data Gaps Initiative (DGI).

The report said that lockdowns in response to the pandemic have hampered data collection and required a shift in resources to other…
