Now in her second term heading up the International Monetary Fund, Georgieva plays a leading role in shaping the global economy, meeting frequently with central bankers and finance ministers from around the world in between official G20 gatherings.
Fresh from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Georgieva speaks with Reuters White House Correspondent Andrea Shalal about the challenges facing the global economy at a time when heightened trade tensions between the United States – the IMF’s largest shareholder – and other countries threaten to hamper already lacklustre global growth prospects. The IMF has warned countries against taking unilateral trade protection measures such as the widespread tariffs on imports threatened by President Trump, saying such policies could trigger retaliation and “leave every country worse off.”
