The International Monetary Fund has been at the forefront of global economic cooperation for 80 years. From our founding at Bretton Woods to today's complex challenges, we have adapted our tools and expertise to support our 190 member countries. Our mission remains the same: bringing prosperity to the world through financial cooperation, sustainable growth, and inclusive economic policies. In a fast-changing world, the IMF is there to help economies grow so that everyone can prosper.
