IMF PURPOSE IMF financing provides its members breathing room to correct balance of payments problems: national authorities design adjustment programs in close cooperation with the IMF that are supported by IMF financing.Continued financial support is conditional on effective implementation of these programs.

The weights assigned to each currency in the XDR basket are adjusted to take into account their current prominence in terms of international trade and national foreign exchange reserves.USD 41.73%, EUR 30.93%, CNY 10.92%, JPY 8.33%, GBP pound 8.09%.
