The International
Monetary Fund
Jazi Al Thani 9E
Why was this
Organization Created
The IMF was created for two reasons the first is
so that the company can loan money to other
countries to help them build up their economy
and then the country would pay the IMF back
after it has improved its economy.
The second reason is that countries that are
going bankrupt have access to money so they
can save their country from going bankrupt.
Who Was it Founded
By?
The IMF was founded by John Maynard
Keynes and Harry Dexter White.
Where was their First
Headquarters
The first IMF headquarters is located in
Washington DC, United States of America.
The Countries you can
Find the Organization
in Today
The IMF has a total of 188 member countries and the
map below shows which of the countries those are.
 The IMF member states is in dark
green
 The IMF members not accepting obligations is in light
green
The IMF's Aim and
Main Focus
The IMF's fundamental mission is to help ensure
stability in the international system. It does so in
three ways: keeping track of the global economy
and the economies of member countries; lending
to countries with balance of payments difficulties;
and giving practical help to members.
Programs the IMF
Offers
The IMF provides loans to countries that have trouble
meeting their international payments and cannot
otherwise find sufficient financing on affordable
terms. This financial assistance is designed to help
countries restore macroeconomic stability by
rebuilding their international reserves, stabilizing
their currencies, and paying for imports—all
necessary conditions for relaunching growth. The
IMF also provides concessional loans to low-income
countries to help them develop their economies and
reduce poverty.
The IMF oversees the international monetary
system and monitors the financial and
economic policies of its members. It keeps
track of economic developments on a
national, regional, and global
basis, consulting regularly with member
countries and providing them with
macroeconomic and financial policy advice.
To assist mainly low- and middle-income
countries in effectively managing their
economies, the IMF provides

practical guidance and training on how to
upgrade institutions, and design appropriate
macroeconomic, financial, and structural policies.
How the IMF Gains
Funds
The IMF then uses the money they gain from
the recruitment fees to loan money to other
countries thus continuing the cycle of gaining
money. So the IMF basically takes money
from every country that joins their
organization because they then use the
money to help other countries that are need
by giving them loans.
