Virus fallout: World Bank ‘pandemic bonds’ plummet in value
https://www.aljazeera.com/ajimpact/virus-fallout-world-bank-pandemic-bonds-plummet-200219184800262.html

“The bank issued the bonds in 2017 to help the poorest countries deal with health emergencies like the coronavirus.

“The World Bank launched bond and insurance instruments in 2017 following the 2013 to 2016 Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, which killed at least 11,300 people. Launched under the bank’s Pandemic Emergency Financing umbrella in 2017, these instruments were designed to be speedily employed where needed.

“The bonds, issued by the World Bank’s International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), offer investors high coupons in return for the risk of having to forgo some or all their money in the event of pandemic outbreaks of a number of infectious diseases.”
