IMF issues annual Article IV report on Iceland
The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund concluded its 2019 Article IV consultation with Iceland today, 19 December. The IMF holds similar consultations with member countries every one to two years on the basis of Article IV of the IMF‘s Articles of Agreement. A Selected Issues Paper on the Scope for Improving Iceland‘s Fiscal Framework accompanied the main report. The Executive Board concluded its consultation on a lapse-of-time basis without convening formal discussions. An IMF Mission was in Iceland in November to consult with the Icelandic authorities and other stakeholders.
