IMF, finance ministers seek to revive global growth

The Hindu  

World finance ministers said on Saturday that global economic growth had slowed and called for more effective measures to restore confidence. “We need to act decisively to break negative feedback loops and restore the global economy to a path of strong, sustainable and balanced growth,” the IMF’s steering committee said. “We are in a better position today regarding policy footing than 6 months ago,” said committee chair Tharman Shanmugaratnam, who is also Singapore’s deputy prime minister and finance minister. “Europe is also making progress on outlining a road map toward banking union, which is a critical step to ensuring a sustainable long-term framework” for addressing the crisis, Geithner said. We think that by January 2014 the new framework will be in place and operational.” He added: “We have to move in time, but you have to do it well.” On Tuesday, the IMF cut its global growth forecast to 3.3 per cent for 2012 from a July projection of 3.5 per cent and to 3.6 per cent for 2013 from 3.9 per cent estimated three months ago.
