A delegation of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will arrive in Minsk on May 12 to study prospects for further cooperation with the country.
As the IMF office in Belarus told BelaPAN, the team, led by Chris Jarvis, will stay in Minsk through May 25.
The mission’s talks with the Belarusian authorities will focus on the country’s social and economic development and monetary and fiscal policies. The IMF experts will review the institution’s macroeconomic forecast for Belarus and also consider its currency exchange rate policy.
In an interview with Reuters on May 4, Alyaksandr Lukashenka said that Minsk would not apply for a new IMF loan amid the country’s economic recovery but would like to receive economic policy advice from the institution’s experts.
