Do IMF Programs Improve Economic Governance?
Mr. Jiro Honda
This paper examines the effects of IMF financial assistance on economic governance in developing countries, based on panel data analyses of perceived governance indicators. It uses a two-stage approach to address possible endogeneity issues. The results show that successful implementation of IMF programs is associated with improvements in the quality of economic governance. Specifically, the paper finds statistically robust results that IMF concessional programs through the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility tend to enhance the rule of law and strengthen control of corruption. Through this exercise, however, no statistically significant effect is observed for assistances under the General Resource Account.

Serbia and Montenegro: Report on the Observance of Standards and Codes: FATF Recommendations for Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism
International Monetary Fund
This Report assesses Observance of Standards and Codes on the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendations for Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) for Serbia and Montenegro. The assessment reveals that the AML/CFT regime of Serbia still lacks some essential components. On the repressive side, there is not a specific provision on the financing of terrorism. It is possible to confiscate the proceeds of crime, but it is not possible to confiscate money intended to finance an act of terrorism.
