    [NT 15000229]: The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the central institution of the international monetary system and plays an important role in the economic life of many countries. IMF assistance has beena key factor in the successful resolution of economic crises with in Brazil, Korea, Poland, Tanzania, Turkey, and Uruguay, but the positive impact of IMF schemes goes relatively unnoticed by many. This book is the first to focus fully on IMF successes, including its important initiatives to help prevent financial crises in advanced and in developing economies. With first-hand accounts by IMF staff and senior country officials, and writtenindependently of the IMF, it seeks to balance the largelycritical existing literature. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking a balanced understanding of the value of the IMF and the challenges in monetary cooperation among countries.
