| Abstract: | As its systemic role evaporated with the collapse of the Bretton Woods system, so the International Monetary Fund (IMF) became drawn into a much more specific role in the context of the balance-of-payments (BOP) problems that developing countries were encountering. At its inception, the IMF had been seen as having no specific role in developing countries, but now it became exclusively these countries that formed int clientele. In the early 1990s the emergence of the Central and East European economies presented the IMF with a new challenge. |
