Policy Papers

The 2000-02 comprehensive review of the Fund’s conditionality culminated in the adoption of a set of <a href="/External/np/pdr/cond/2002/eng/guid/092302.htm">conditionality guidelines by the Executive Board on September 25, 2002</a>.<br /><br /> The 2002 Conditionality Guidelines (the “guidelines”) replace the 1979 Conditionality Guidelines and the Interim Guidance Note on Streamlining Structural Conditionality of September 18, 2000. A review of experience with the guidelines, looking at how they have been implemented and at their impact, is conducted periodically; summary statistics on conditionality have been prepared annually since 2008.
