Preface
The Fund’s Legal Department has produced this Supplement to Selected Decisions and Selected Documents of the IMF, 40th Issue, with the aim of making available in convenient form selected policy decisions and documents issued after the publication of the 40th Issue but before the issuance of the forthcoming 41st Issue. The Supplement will be published in PDF format on the external website of the Fund (www.imf.org).
In this Supplement, stand-alone policy decisions and documents are reproduced in full. In the case of decisions amending other decisions, amendments generally are incorporated in the amended decisions. However, where a relatively short amendment pertains to a relatively long document, the amending decision is included as a stand-alone document. The order of documents in the Supplement follows the order of the Articles in the Fund’s Articles of Agreement.
