Today's #FFD4 interesting proposals: credit rating agencies

The co-facilitators stated that:
"Regulatory regimes should encourage credit ratings to be more transparent, accurate, objective, and long-term oriented."

and proposed:
"implement consistent regulatory regimes for rating agencies."

Could #FFD4 proposal kickstart more work on gender-responsive taxation? The chart below (from FSDR 2024) shows the take up of GRB over time. This is not a quick win, but a slow burn of progress.

GRB benefited from IMF and UN WOMEN investing in the tools to help countries. Need push on tax side now!
