Dear Gabriele –
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and relevant documents.
It is somewhat odd, reading the panel of experts, in their open letter, appreciate the possibility of reducing global poverty levels, without taking into account that we are moving towards a world with fewer poor people, but many more mega-wealthy individuals whose accumulated assets many times surpass the GDP of several countries combined. Thus, the non-reference in the letter to the reduction of inequalities and income disparities is a bit worrying.
