SELECTED DECISIONS AND SELECTED DOCUMENTS OF THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND

TWENTIETH ISSUE WASHINGTON, DC June 30, 1995

Preface

This volume is the Twentieth Issue of Selected Decisions of the International Monetary Fund and Selected Documents. It contains the decisions, interpretations, and resolutions of the Executive Board and the Board of Governors of the International Monetary Fund, as well as selected documents, to which frequent reference is made in the current activities of the Fund. In addition, the volume contains certain documents relating to the Fund and the United Nations. With few exceptions, the decisions are of a general nature and relate to certain obligations, policies, and procedures under the Articles of Agreement.

The Fourteenth Issue had an accompanying Annex containing bilateral borrowing agreements entered into by the Fund for the financing of the Enlarged Access Policy and for the financing of the ESAF Trust and associated lending, as well as related decisions adopted by April 30, 1989; an updated Annex containing bilateral borrowing agreements and related decisions in force on June 30, 1995 is under preparation. Bilateral borrowing agreements entered into by the Fund in connection with the General Arrangements to Borrow are included in this volume.

This issue contains the decisions published in the Nineteenth Issue that remain in effect, as well as new general decisions adopted after the publication of the Nineteenth Issue.

Wherever reference is made in this volume to provisions of the Fund’s Articles or Rules and Regulations that have subsequently been renumbered by, or because of, the Second Amendment of the Fund’s Articles of Agreement (effective April 1, 1978), the corresponding provision currently in effect is cited in a footnote.
