As\n part of this monitoring, known as surveillance, which takes place\n both at the global level and in individual countries, the IMF\n highlights possible risks to stability and advises on policy\n adjustments to address these risks.\n
\n \n\n\n Of this lending, the IMF channeled $17 billion (equivalent to SDR\n 12 billion) in financing to 39 countries through emergency lending\n facilities, of which $6 billion was provided to 26 low-income\n countries.\n
\n\n The IMF provides financing to member countries experiencing\n actual, potential, or prospective balance of payments problems to\n help them rebuild their international reserves and restore\n conditions for strong economic growth, while correcting underlying\n problems. The IMF also provides fast-disbursing emergency\n financing with limited conditionality and has greatly expanded\n such financing to help member countries address the immediate\n economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.\n
\n \n\n\n The IMF works with countries to strengthen their economic\n institutions by providing technical assistance and training on\n critical economic issues. This work helps countries strengthen\n their economies and create more jobs. The IMF shares its knowledge\n with government institutions such as finance ministries, central\n banks, statistical agencies, financial supervisory agencies, and\n revenue administrations through hands-on advice, training, and\n peer-to-peer learning. IMF capacity development is delivered in\n person and remotely by long-term resident advisors in country or\n at regional CD centers, during short-term visits by IMF staff and\n experts, and through classroom training and free online courses.\n
