International Monetary Fund VS The World Bank What is the real difference?

Purposes of the IMF and The World Bank The International Monetary Fund (IMF) maintains international monetary cooperation among its members The World Bank aids in the development and reconstruction of it members

IMF Briefing Exchange rate stability, balance of payments disequilibrium, and growth of international trade Currently 182 member countries By sharing economic policies the system of buying and selling currencies would be stable

World Bank Briefing Made up of 5 different organizations International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) International Development Association (IDA) International Finance Corporation (IFC) Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID)

History behind the IMF and World Bank After the Great Depression in the 1930s there was a need for an organization to create a system for exchange rate stability Uncertainty of the value of paper money (no longer used the gold standard) Countries began cheating other countries in trade Countries’ economies affected by WWII need for reconstruction in well-developed nations need for development in the lesser developed nations

Bretton Woods Conference 1940s proposals for monetary system by Harry Dexter White (U.S.) and John Keynes (UK) establish the value of each currency eliminate restrictions and certain practices on trade assistance for post-war reconstruction Bretton Woods Conference, New Hampshire, July 1944 with delegates of 44 nations final negotiations of the IMF and the World Bank took place

Purposes of the IMF Articles of Agreement of the IMF i) promote international monetary cooperation ii) expansion and balanced growth of international trade iii) promote exchange rate stability

iv) help establish multilateral system of payments and eliminate foreign exchange restrictions v) make resources of the Fund available to members vi) Shorten the duration and lessen the degree of disequilibrium in international balances of payments

Where the IMF gets its money Most comes from the quota subscriptions the money each member contributes when joining the IMF General Arrangements to Borrow (1962) line of credit set up with several governments and banks throughout the world

Special Drawing Right (SDRs) SDR is an invented currency its value is based on the worth of the world’s five major currencies US Dollar, French Franc, Pound Sterling, Japanese Yen, Deutsche Mark Countries add SDRs to their holdings of foreign currencies keep available for need of payments that must be made in foreign exchange

Organization Board of Governors Executive Board Managing Director Each member country appoints one Governor and and Alternate Governor Executive Board 24 Executive Directors which are representatives for the members Managing Director the chairman of the Executive Board

Governors spend most of their time dealing with their own countries report their countries’ plans to their representatives only meet with entire IMF board once a year Executive Board oversees the economic policies of the members holds meetings three times a week Managing Director heads the the IMF staff of about 2,600 people traditionally held by a European

Power among the members Size of the quotas determine voting power IMF decides on the quota for each member richer countries have larger quota US having largest economy provides 18% of the total quota (about $35 billion) US has largest voting power (18% or 26,5000)

Members with largest quotas

A bit more on quotas Quotas are reviewed every 5 years by the IMF Quotas also determine how much each member can borrow from the IMF when in need of aid

When is a country in need ? A country that had not taken in enough foreign currency to pay the other countries for what they have bought spends more money than it takes in IMF will lend foreign exchange to that member hoping to stabilize its currency which will strengthen its trade

How much money a member can borrow from the IMF 25% of the country’s quota may be used If this is not sufficient, then members can borrow up to 3 times the amount of its quota present plans for reform to Executive Directors If these plans are sufficient for the Executive Directors, the IMF grants the member a loan

World Bank Made up of 5 different organizations International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) International Development Association (IDA) International Finance Corporation (IFC) Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID)

International Bank for Reconstruction and Development Founded in 1944 at the Bretton Woods Conference to finance the reconstruction of countries affected by WWII help with development of impoverished nations World Bank’s central institution 181 member countries

IBRD continued Lends to countries with relatively high per capita incomes Money is used for: development projects (i.e. highways, schools) programs to help governments change the way they manage their economies Provides technical assistance in projects

International Development Association Established in 1960 assist the poorest developing countries lends to countries with annual per capita incomes of about $800 or less It’s loans are knows as “credits” 161 members

International Finance Corporation Established in 1956 to reduce poverty and improve people's lives in an environmentally and socially responsible manner (174 members) finances private sector investments, mobilizes capital in international financial markets, and provides technical assistance and advice to governments and businesses provides both loan and equity finance for business ventures in developing countries

Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency Established in 1988 helps developing countries attract foreign investment provides investment marketing services and legal advisory services to its members 152 members

International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes Established in 1966 to promote increased flow of international investment Provides facilities for the reconciliation of disputes between governments and foreign investors 131 members

Where the IBRD gets its money through the sale of its bonds in international capital markets Members’ subscriptions to its capital stock only 10% of the subscriptions is used by the Bank “Callable Capital” portion of the subscriptions that the Bank borrows the Bank charges a rate of interest rate on its loans to pay this back

Where the IDA gets its money Mostly from governments’ voluntary contributions Replenishments additional contributions which are needed every few years

Differences between the IBRD and the IDA IBRD charges an interest rate on loans loans must be repaid within 15-20 years with a 5 year grace period IDA does not charge an interest rate, only a 0.75% service charge repayment period is 30-45 years with a 10 grace period

Asian Crisis Financial crisis broke out in Asia in 1997 large declines in currencies, stock markets, and other asset prices affected emerging markets outside of Asia IMF arranged programs of economic stabilization and reform with Indonesia, Korea, and Thailand

IMF’s Actions Temporary tightening of monetary policy correct the weaknesses in the financial system remove features of the economy that were impediments to growth assist in reopening lines of external financing maintaining a sound fiscal policy
