The Bretton Woods Agreement aimed at setting plans to stabilize the global financial system and encourage trade development after World War II. It resulted in the establishment of two international organizations: the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the World Trade Organization (WTO) at a later stage. These institutions witnessed major developments over the past years. This webinar aimed to discuss whether these international institutions will remain the same after the COVID-19 crisis.
