Summary:In 2008-2009, the global economy experienced the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression in the 1930s, as it has been characterized. We consider that the current global financial crisis is a major challenge for the International Monetary Fund („IMF” or the „Fund”).

This paper discusses the potential roles the Fund may have in resolving the current global financial crisis.
