This section also explains where the IMF gets its resources and how they are used. The money comes from ! The IMF'sresourcescome mainly from the money that countries pay as their capital subscription when they become members
KEY FACTORS OF CREATING POLITICAL POWER The IMF's fundamental mission is to help ensure stability in the international system 3 KEYS 1- Keeping track of the global economy and the economies of member countries 2- Lending to countries with balance of payments difficulties 3-Giving practical help to members
A-SURVEILLANCEThe IMF's regular monitoring of economies and associated provision of policy advice is intended to identify weaknesses that are causing or could lead to financial or economic instability COUNTRY SURVEILLANCE IMF team of economists visits a country to assess economic and financial developments and discuss the country's economic and financial policies with government and central bank officials Global surveillance Entails reviews by the IMF's global economic trends and developments and based on the World Economic Outlook reports and the Global Financial Stability Report, which covers developments, prospects, and policy issues in international financial markets REGIONAL SURVEILLANCE involves examination by the IMF of policies pursued under currency unionsincluding the euro arealikesthe West African Economic and Monetary Union.
B-TECHNICAL ASSISTANCEThe IMF shares its expertise with member countries by providing technical assistance and training in a wide range of areas, such as central banking, monetary and exchange rate policy, tax policy and administration, and official statistics BENEFICIARIES OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE Technical assistance is one of the IMF's core activities. It is concentrated in critical areas of macroeconomic policy where the Fund has the greatest comparative advantage. THE TYPES OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE It takes different forms, according to needs, ranging from long-term hands-on capacity building to short-notice policy support in a financial crisis PARTNERSHIP WITH DONORS Contributions from bilateral and multilateral donors are playing an increasingly important role in enabling the IMF to meet country needs in this area, now financing about two thirds of the IMF's field delivery of technical assistance
C-LENDING A country in severe financial trouble, unable to pay its international bills, poses potential problems for the international financial system, which the IMF was created to protect. Any member country, whether rich, middle-income, or poor, can turn to the IMF for financing if it has a balance of payments need—that is, if it cannot find sufficient financing on affordable terms in the capital markets to make its international payments and maintaina safe level of reserves.
QUOTAS The larger a country's economy in terms of output and the larger and more variable its trade, the larger its quota tends to be. For example, the world's biggest economy, the United States, has the largest quota in the IMF. Quotas, together with the equal number of basic votes each member has, determine countries' voting power. They also help determine how much countries can borrow from the IMF and their share in allocations of SPECIAL DRAWING RIGHTS (DRS) Countries pay 25 percent of their quota subscriptions in SDRs or major currencies, such as U.S. dollars, euros, pounds sterling, or Japanese yen. They pay the remaining 75 percent in their own currencies

It has had a range of bilateral borrowing arrangements in the 1970s and 1980s. Currently it has two standing multilateral borrowing arrangements and one bilateral borrowing agreement
