Policy Papers

In September 2009, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank (WB) Boards approved changes to the Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) to (i) make it more flexible and better-aligned with country needs as well as IMF and WB financial sector priorities and core responsibilities; (ii) enhance the quality, candor, and comparability of assessments; and (iii) better-integrate FSAP analysis into the institutions’ evolving mandates.
