Statement Of U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew For The International Monetary And Financial Committee (IMFC) Meeting

Date 16/04/2016

As we meet this week, the global recovery remains uneven and there is a need for timely action by all to support global economic growth.  Achieving a sustained recovery with solid growth requires a comprehensive approach that employs all levers of economic policy—monetary, fiscal, and structural—to support the recovery.  We are pleased that the IMF is in a strong position to continue to play its central role in promoting growth and stability following implementation of the 2010 quota and governance reforms, which put its finances on a more stable footing.   Thanks to bipartisan Congressional support for the IMF quota and governance reforms, the United States has reaffirmed its commitment to a strong IMF.  Full implementation of the IMF governance reforms, including agreed changes to the Executive Board, will further increase the credibility of the institution.  The IMF also has a strong leadership team in place with the welcome reappointment of Madame Lagarde to a second term as Managing Director and of David Lipton as First Deputy Managing Director.
