IMF Reverses Position on Capital Controls
Keywords:
The IMF's Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn, says the Fund is taking a very pragmatic view of capital controls. Because of large capital outflows from developed economies in the West to emerging market countries, this has become a much discussed issue. In the past the IMF has supported open flows, but this has created serious problems for some countries. Strauss-Kahn says that with the right economic policies in place, it can be a good idea on a temporary basis to use the tool of capital controls and prevent damaging economic distortions.

04/05/2011
Capital controls can be a useful tool on a temporary basis, when the right economic policies are in place. This would help to prevent damaging economic distortions from taking place, especially with the large inflows of capital into emerging market countries after 2008.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
