abstract = {This paper evaluates the literature on the lending programs of the IMF. The first section
deals with the initiation of a Fund program, which has been shown to be influenced by
political and institutional variables. A second focus of research analyzes the design and
implementation of Fund supported polices, since many programs are often not
successfully completed. The third issue surveyed is the impact of IMF policies on the
economy of the borrowing government. The effect of Fund programs on private capital
flows is also examined. The last section presents issues that merit further research.},
