- Imf Shakes Up Policy Advice in Wake of Crisis
Economists who thought they had figured out how to keep national economies growing and inflation under control by simply focusing on short-term interest rates have learned some important lessons from the recent recession. Olivier Blanchard, economic counselor of the International Monetary Fund and head of its research department, is one economist who has done some rethinking.

- Imf Downgrades Economic Outlook: ; Organization Says Economy has Entered 'Dangerous New Phase'
WASHINGTON - The world economy has entered a "dangerous new phase," according to the chief economist of the International Monetary Fund. As a result, the international lending organization has sharply downgraded its economic outlook for the United States and Europe through the end of next year.
