An Appraisal of IMF Policies to the AFC

Author

  • Kirrane, Chris

Abstract

The IMF Fund is now centred on crisis prevention and supervision}, particularly in developing as well as transition countries. While confirming that the IMF as a focal point of the international financial system, the Asian crisis tends to illustrate the limits, or excesses, associated with its action. A redefinition of its role along with its mandate seems necessary.
