Public Disclosure Authorized DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE (Joint Ministerial Committee of the Boards of Governors ofthe Bank and the Fundon the Transfer of Real Resources to Developing Countries) ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEENTH MEETING WASHINGTON, DC – APRIL 16, 2026 Pub lic Disc losure Authorized DC/S/2026-0027 April 16, 2026 Statement by Scott Bessent Secretary of the Treasury United States U.S. TREASURY DEPARTMENT OFFICE OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS Statement by Scott Bessent Secretary of the Treasury United States 113th Meeting of the Development Committee April 16, 2026 Washington, DC This year’s Spring Meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank provide an important opportunity to engage on current global economic challenges as well as our work with partners and the international financial institutions to support a pro-growth agenda, macroeconomic and financial stability, and poverty reduction. In the United States, President Trump’s America First economic agenda is promoting robust economic growth and job creation, fiscal prudence, energy abundance, deregulation, and regulatory modernization. As G20 host, the United States is also championing a more balanced global economy. When focused on their core mandates, the IMF and World Bank can be well-placed to help advance these objectives. In recent years, the IMF has suffered from mission creep. Its work has too often extended into areas such as international development, climate change, gender, and social issues, which are disconnected from the institution’s core mandate. To restore its relevance and impact, the Fund must drop these extraneous items and focus on the critical economic work at hand. As part of the ongoing Comprehensive Surveillance Review (CSR), the IMF is taking important steps to better calibrate the scope of its surveillance and reverse these concerning trends. We also welcome the CSR as an opportunity to reinvigorate the IMF’s analysis of external sector issues, notably imbalances and cross-border spillovers, as part of broader efforts to bring the institution’s surveillance back to basics. The IMF’s work on imbalances must consider industrial and other policies that restrict domestic demand. To conduct surveillance effectively, the IMF must prioritize greater depth and policy relevance of analysis and make greater use of scenario-based analysis in response to contingencies, rather than expanding its breadth. The IMF’s lending function must also remain disciplined and focused. Strong programs are built on meaningful policy conditionality that address the root causes of balance of payments problems, incorporate credible macroeconomic projections, and ground themselves in rigorous debt sustainability analyses. Through the ongoing Review of Program Design and Conditionality, we expect the IMF to reemphasize a culture focused on achieving successful program outcomes rather than prioritizing inputs, such as the volume of financing provided. IMF lending must be temporary and focused on resolving balance of payments problems through macroeconomic stabilization and the rebuilding of external buffers. The United States also expects the IMF to advance reforms and structural benchmarks that strengthen borrower accountability in program implementation. In a more constrained external financing environment, the IMF should promote domestic revenue mobilization, better governance, and policies that support durable, private sector-led growth. The United States is committed to a strong, quota-based, and adequately resourced IMF that plays a critical role in the Global Financial Safety Net. We remain committed to securing congressional approval for the 16th General Review of Quotas, which will reinforce the IMF’s status as a quota-based institution. The case for future quota reviews must be firmly established on the basis of resource adequacy needs. IMF shareholding should reflect members’ relative position in the world econo
