Summary: "Inadequate access to concessional financing continues to pose a bottleneck to small states, affecting their developmental aspirations. While some small states have graduated from eligibility to access development finance, their unique characteristics including their small size, geographical positioning and location pose serious challenges requiring financial support. The financing challenges faced by small states are exacerbated by their inherent vulnerabilities to external shocks, which place a burden on their economies due to their already limited fiscal space. This leads further to accumulation of debt, leaving some countries at risk of debt distress"--Introduction.
