Summary outcomes of the Roundtable on Macroeconomic Resilience in Small States

Resource Description

This report summarises the outcomes of the Commonwealth Secretariat and auctusESG’s 2025 Roundtable on Macroeconomic Resilience in Small States.

Why This Matters

Small states face acute climate and debt challenges that can threaten economic stability and development progress. This report aims to provide a practical roadmap for policymakers, central banks, and other stakeholders to embed resilience into fiscal systems

Key Insights

  • Highlights fiscal vulnerabilities of small states and calls for embedding climate risk into fiscal frameworks
  • Showcases innovative debt mechanisms like Grenada’s hurricane-linked clause
  • Emphasises the role of monetary policy and central banks in helping to integrate climate risk into supervision, credit allocation, and industry development
  • Underscores the need for multi-stakeholder partnerships, capacity development, and country-specific policy innovation to operationalise resilience within fiscal ecosystems
