IMF and World Bank Annual Meetings
With the participation of the governor of the Bank of Algeria
The Governor of the Bank of Algeria, Salah Eddine Taleb, is taking part, until October 18, in the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group which opened the day before yesterday Monday in Washington, with, at the center of the discussions, the main global economic challenges, including growth prospects, international financial stability and the fight against poverty. According to a press release from the Bank of Algeria, these meetings are held in person at the headquarters of the two institutions. They bring together political leaders, finance ministers, central bank governors, as well as representatives of financial institutions, international organizations and civil society.
They provide a platform for exchanges between public decision-makers, experts, academics and private sector actors around global economic and social issues, including financial resilience, trade imbalances, energy transition and debt reduction in developing countries. During this international event, Salah Eddine Taleb will have to speak as representative of a group of countries during the plenary session of the International Monetary and Financial Committee (IMFC) of the IMF. He will also participate in the meeting of MENAP countries (Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan) and the work of the African Caucus (African Consultation Group), in the presence of the Managing Director of the IMF, Kristalina Georgieva, and senior officials of the World Bank. The governor’s agenda includes several bilateral meetings with the director of the IMF’s Middle East and Central Asia department, as well as with officials of other international financial institutions and central bank governors.
The program of the assemblies provides for the holding of high-level conferences, seminars and forums alongside the plenary sessions which will address themes linked to sustainable development, the reform of the global economic architecture, food security, job creation and the role of the agricultural sector in inclusive growth. Yesterday, Tuesday, the IMF’s World Economic Outlook (WEO) report was expected. He was expected to present the latest economic growth projections and analyze risks to the global economy amid continued uncertainty and heightened geopolitical and trade tensions.
