DFI has been funded by Connect US to partner with the African Economic Research Consortium, Brookings Institution, New Rules for Global Finance and the University of Missouri/Kansas City to ensure that low-income and African countries' voices are heard in the G20, US administration and Financial Stability Board on how global financial regulation can best promote their development. The project will involve a combination of research, analysis and advocacy during 2010-11. The project was discussed preliminarily at a seminar at the BWI Annual Meetings on 9 October.
