The Paris Club ((フランス語:Club de Paris)) is an informal group of officials from creditor countries whose role is to find coordinated and sustainable solutions to the payment difficulties experienced by debtor countries. As debtor countries undertake reforms to stabilize and restore their macroeconomic and financial situation, Paris Club creditors provide an appropriate debt treatment. Paris Club creditors provide debt treatments to debtor countries in the form of rescheduling, which is debt relief by postponement or, in the case of concessional rescheduling, reduction in debt service obligations during a defined period (flow treatment) or as of a set date (stock treatment). The Paris Club was created gradually from 1956, when the first negotiation between Argentina and its public creditors took place in Paris. The Paris Club treats public claims, that is to say, those due by governments of debtor countries and by the private sector, guaranteed by the public sector to Paris Club members. A similar process occurs for public debt held by private creditors in the London Club, which was organized in 1970 on the model of the Paris Club is an informal group of commercial banks meet to renegotiate the debt they hold on sovereign debtors. Creditor countries meet ten times a year in Paris for ''Tour d'Horizon'' and negotiating sessions, chaired by the Director of the General Directorate of the Treasury of the French Ministry of Finance and Public Accounts. Since 1983 and until May 2014, the Paris Club has signed more than 430 agreements covering 90 debtor countries over 583 billion of dollars. ==History== After the first meeting of the Paris Club in 1956, the treatment of sovereign debt held by official bilateral creditors long consisted in simple ad hoc international meetings bringing together the creditor states. The creation of the secretariat at the end of the 1970s established a certain institutionalization of the Paris Club. The creation of "methodological sessions" and meetings called "tour d'horizon", separate from negotiations themselves in the early 1980s continued the formalization of procedures of the Paris Club, as part of the deepening of North-South dialogue. Russia is a permanent member since September 17, 1997. The State of Israel is a permanent member since (June 24, 2014 ). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paris Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
