Building Transparency in the World’s Second-Most Powerful Institution

Saturday, Apr 16, 2016, 1:45 pm

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is one of the most influential institutions in the world, but few Americans know what it does or how it works. Transparency at the IMF is critical. In some of the world’s poorest countries, not only does the public not know the details of loan contracts – that may contain harmful austerity measures – often even the country’s parliament doesn’t have the details. We can build transparency in the international financial system and the IMF can help lead the way. “Let There be Light.”
