IMF extended the expansion of quotas for member countries by six months

RIA Novosti reports.

It is noted that this decision was made against the background of urgent needs in the balance of payments of the member countries.

In April, member countries' access to fund resources was increased from 50% to 100%.

On September 8, the head of the IMF Kristalina Georgieva, during a speech at a virtual ministerial meeting on the topic of financing development in the era of COVID-19 and after it, assessed the situation in the global economy.
