Consider the following statements and identify the right ones.i. The e...
Statement i: The executive board is the highest decision-making body of IMF.
Statement ii: The Board of Governors meets twice a year.
The correct answer is option D, none.
Explanation:
Statement i: The executive board is not the highest decision-making body of IMF. The highest decision-making body of IMF is the Board of Governors, consisting of representatives from all member countries. The executive board is responsible for the day-to-day operations and decisions of the IMF, but it does not have the final authority on major policy decisions.
Statement ii: The Board of Governors does meet twice a year. The Board of Governors holds an annual meeting, which is usually held in September or October, where major policy decisions are made. Additionally, there is a Spring Meetings event, which is also attended by the Board of Governors. During these meetings, representatives from member countries discuss global economic issues, review IMF policies, and make decisions on various matters.
Therefore, both statements i and ii are incorrect.
In conclusion, the correct answer is option D, none.
