YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Sky News' Economics Editor explains that while government debt may have spiralled to the highest amount on record, the managing director of the IMF says we may need to borrow more.

Kristalina Georgieva says it is important for governments not to 'withdraw economic support prematurely'.

To do so could put a break on any economic recovery from the coronavirus pandemic.
