Borrowing assessments should be cut to one a year, IMF suggests
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recommended reducing the frequency of borrowing assessments from multiple times a year to just once annually. The IMF suggests this change would alleviate the pressure for "overly-frequent changes to policy," which can be disruptive to economic stability. The proposal comes amid concerns that the current practice of multiple assessments per year can lead to hasty policy decisions and instability. The IMF argues that a single annual assessment would provide a more comprehensive and well-informed basis for policy adjustments, rather than relying on piecemeal data. While the recommendation is aimed at improving economic policymaking, it remains to be seen whether governments and financial institutions will adopt the IMF's suggestion. The potential impact on borrowers and lenders will also need to be carefully considered before any changes are implemented.
