answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government recognises that ensuring debt sustainability and transparency in Low Income Countries (LICs) is important. UK-based lenders are subject to extensive prudential disclosure requirements under UK prudential and accounting law, including for material loans made to foreign Governments, which appropriately reflect firms’ exposures. Compliance with these requirements are independently assessed by the relevant UK regulator during their supervisory activities.</p><p> </p><p>Given the complex international nature of LIC debt, we continue to believe that internationally-agreed assessments and coordinated approaches to tackle debt vulnerability are most effective. The G20 have been supporting work on debt sustainability, including G20 sustainable lending guidelines and voluntary industry-led initiatives to promote debt transparency from private lenders to sovereign nations, especially LICs.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 14/11/2018 17:28:56 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
