On 30 October 2024 over 110 international experts met for a SUERF BAFFI Bocconi e-lecture on “Key findings from the IMF’ Fiscal Monitor, October 2024”.
As the global economy faces increasing fiscal challenges, multilateral surveillance of fiscal developments has become an important part of the IMF’s surveillance responsibilities. The Fiscal Monitor series provides an overview of latest public finance developments, updates the medium-term fiscal outlook, and assesses fiscal implications of policies relevant to the global economy. The Fiscal Monitor is prepared twice a year by the IMF’s Fiscal Affairs Department. Its projections are based on the same database used for the World Economic Outlook (WEO) and the Global Financial Stability Report (GFSR).
This e-lecture offered a unique opportunity to have the report presented by IMF authors, to hear comments by senior experts from leading European policy institutions, and to pose questions to the speakers.
