In a letter appeared on the Financial Times (January 26 edition) Aldo Caliari says criticism of the recently announced White House measures to limit the size and scope of banks misses the point.

Center of Concern joins the 16 members of CIDSE, the transatlantic network of Catholic development agencies, to demand that the financial sector bears its fair share of the burden of the crisis.

A letter sent by International Cooperation for Development and Solidarity Network (CIDSE), a transatlantic network of faith-based development agencies of which Center of Concern is a member, addresses demands to the US and European country members of the G20 meeting in Pittsburgh.  

As the participants in the Group of Eight summit gathered in L'Aquila, Italy, July 8-10, the economic crisis gripping the world was getting lots of attention. In this interview for Catholic News Service, Aldo Caliari speaks about what can be expected from the G8 meeting, and how it relates to the recently held UN Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis.

Media reports on Center of Concern and CIDSE views and activities at the World Conference on the Financial and Economic Crisis in New York, June 24-26.

In an article commissioned by Islam Online, Aldo Caliari argues that, for years, "big-picture" reforms of the global financial and monetary system were believed to be the province of rich countries, through exclusive gatherings such as the Group of 7 or 8 and their unquestionable dominance of the international financial institutions. Now that is beginning to change.
