What is the IMF’s Mission?
The IMF has been one of the few beneficiaries of the global economic crisis. But the crisis will not last forever, and the IMF’s critics have not gone away, so the Fund must define its role now, while it still has the world's sympathetic ear.

BERKELEY – The International Monetary Fund has been one of the few beneficiaries of the global economic crisis. Just two years ago, it was being downsized, and serious people were asking whether it should be closed down. Since then, there has been a renewed demand for IMF lending. Members have agreed to a tripling of its resources. It has been authorized to raise additional funds by selling its own bonds. The Fund is a beehive of activity.
