A hegemon is like the big boss in a group, the one with the most power and influence. Some regional big shots today are the US, China, and the EU. The World Bank, IMF, and WTO help with global finance and trade. They were set up after WWII to promote economic stability, development, and international trade.

The IMF helps countries facing financial crises by providing loans and policy advice to stabilize their economies. The WTO deals with global trade rules, settling disputes, and promoting free trade among nations
