IMF Signs SDR 800 Million Borrowing Agreement with the Bank of Italy to Support Lending to Low-Income Countries
This agreement, signed on April 18, 2011, expands the IMF’s capacity to help low-income countries by increasing the loan resources available for the recently reformed concessional lending facilities. Following the Executive Board’s approval of these reforms in July 2009, the Managing Director launched a fund-raising campaign seeking SDR 10.8 billion in new bilateral loan resources and SDR 200–400 million in bilateral contributions to subsidize the cost of concessional lending (see Press Release No. 09/268).
