How can debt policies for DVC create a moral hazard?

What will be an ideal response?


If IAC or international organizations extend loans or grants to DVC they expect to be repaid. If IAC or international organizations, however, later provide assistance to DVC through debt relief or debt forgiveness, the DVC can come to expect such relief or assistance when they receive future grants or loans. This situation creates a moral hazard in which debt relief or debt forgiveness becomes the expectation when grants or loans are made and no serious effort is made to repay the grants or loans.
