Tiivistelmä: | There is no use to set up essentially political tasks for the IMF and require the latter to resolve them. For a country-borrower it is necessary to maintain the tightness of criteria applied to a monetary program as a core element of financial stabilization. Whatever serious political reasoning is used to justify softening of such requirements, the result is the same, a capital outflow. The coordinated and gradual work of the government and a central bank with the IMF allows inflation rates to be cut sharply by applying orthodox monetary methods. An essential prerequisite for success is a joint creative analysis of economic and political problems arising in the course of stabilization, followed if necessary by an introduction of adequate changes to stabilization tactics. |
