Abstract

In light of current elevated uncertainty and challenges in the global economy, the IMF has temporarily increased the limits on access in the Fund’s General Resources Account (GRA) to 200 percent of a member’s quota annually and 600 percent of quota cumulatively (from 145 and 435 percent of quota previously, respectively, last set in 2016). These changes will be in place for 12 months and, if circumstances warrant, the Executive Board may consider extending them further before their expiration. Regarding the Poverty Reduction and Growth Trust (PRGT), the paper proposes that the Executive Board reviews PRGT access limits once sufficient subsidy resources have been pledged to the PRGT. The impact on GRA resources and risks to the Fund from the proposed changes are expected to be manageable.
