An affiliate of the World Bank, IFC was established in 1956 to fur- ther economic growth in its developing member countries by promoting productive private invest- ment. Its equity capital is provided by its 133 mem- ber countries-both developed and developing- which collectively determine its policies and activi- ties. IFC's principal tasks are to provide and bring to- gether the financing, technical assistance, and man- agement needed to make good use of investment opportunities in the developing world. IFC provides long-term loans and risk capital without government guarantees to enterprises in the private sector. Its fi- nancial assistance is designed to fit the special re- quirements of its client companies and takes into account their ability to raise funds from other sources on reasonable terms. In all of its activities, IFC works to raise investor confidence and employs its status as an international institution to facilitate the process by which investors and governments ar- rive at mutually satisfactory agreements. IFC also seeks to encourage the flow of private capital, both domestically and internationally, to de- veloping countries through the establishment or ex- pansion of capital markets and financial institutions.

  • Getting a Seat at the IMF Executive Board Table By: Bessma Momani
    Title: Getting a Seat at the IMF Executive Board Table By: Bessma Momani Assistant Professor, Departments of Political Science and History, University of Waterloo Senior Fellow, Centre for International Governance and Innovation [email protected] Paper Submitted for Consideration to “The Political Economy of International Organizations’ 3-8 February 2008, Ascona, Switzerland Abstract: How are seats allocated on the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Executive Board? Are seats determined by bureaucratic interests, strategic power politics, or by a combination of the two? The theoretical debate on this issue is lively, with hypothesizing taking place on every front. What is sorely lacking, however, is empirical evidence of actual practice. Developing an evidence-based understanding of the manner in which IMF member states gain access to seats at the Executive Board is particularly crucial now, given the centrality of this issue to current debates about the very future of the IMF itself. As part of a multi-case study, this paper will present historical context to this current policy dilemma, illustrating the political process involved in getting a seat at the Executive Board in the cases of Russia and Switzerland. Introduction Created in 1944 as part of the post-World War strategy to prevent another Great Depression, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) was ideally meant to coordinate financing and technical advice to member countries experiencing economic imbalances. Today, however, the IMF is frequently criticized for its failure to be accountable and legitimate in the eyes of its own members. Recently, many prominent policymakers across the world have argued that the IMF’s legitimacy crisis can only be resolved by re-allocating the 24 seats on its Executive Board in a way that gives greater voice to countries that are seen to be underrepresented.

  • The International Monetary Fund and the Neoliberal Revolution in the Developing World
    CREATING CREDIBILITY: THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND AND THE NEOLIBERAL REVOLUTION IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Stephen Craig Nelson August 2009 © 2009 Stephen Craig Nelson CREATING CREDIBILITY: THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND AND THE NEOLIBERAL REVOLUTION IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD Stephen Craig Nelson, Ph.D. Cornell University 2009 The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been deeply involved in economic governance in developing countries through its conditional lending since the late 1970s. Despite the importance of the IMF in the economic and political life of its borrowers, we have, at best, an incomplete understanding of the roots of the institution’s behavior. This dissertation attempts to answer some important questions about the IMF’s lending activities, namely: why is there so much variation in the IMF’s treatment of its borrowers? I argue that the IMF is best viewed as a purposive actor driven by a set of economic ideas. These ideas shape the way the institution’s staff and management make decisions about the use of its resource in complex and unsettled political and economic circumstances. The IMF has political preference for policy teams composed of likeminded officials. I use new data to test the argument on three aspects of IMF treatment; the cross-national evidence shows that governments with a higher proportion of neoliberal policymakers receive larger loans with fewer binding conditions and are more likely to receive waivers for missed policy targets. Further, I show that the ability of top neoliberal economic officials to deliver better treatment from the IMF enables them to extend their time in office.
