Odaily News The Independent Evaluation Office (IEO) of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) pointed out that the IMF faces resource allocation dilemmas and excessive staff burdens as it expands into new policy areas such as governance, social spending, digital currencies, climate change and gender. The report shows that although the expansion in these areas has been approved by the Board of Directors, resources and expertise are still limited, which may affect the IMFs ability to provide high-quality policy advice. The IEO is concerned that this will lead to a trilemma, that is, a trade-off between expanding scope, resource constraints and the ability to maintain high-quality policy advice. It also expressed concerns about the limited discussion on the risks of the Funds involvement in new policy areas. Although the report made four high-level recommendations, such as around decision-making and budget tracking, the real question is whether this will affect the IMFs digital currency work. The IMFs work on digital currencies and DLT is very extensive, including assisting multiple countries in developing central bank digital currencies and participating in cross-border payment projects, and faces challenges in management and resource allocation. How the IMF adjusts its strategy and work priorities in the future will become the focus of observation. (Ledger Insights)
