The delegation from the National Bank of Serbia (NBS) and the Ministry of Finance is currently in Washington for the Annual Assembly of the Board of Governors of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group, as announced by the NBS.
The delegation includes NBS Governor Jorgovanka Tabaković and Finance Minister Siniša Mali, with the assembly running until October 26.
Key discussions will focus on current global economic trends and prospects amid heightened geopolitical tensions, along with suitable economic policy measures. The IMF’s Director General is set to present the Global Economic Policy Agenda, and meetings of the International Monetary and Financial Committee and the Joint Committee for Development—advisory bodies of the IMF and World Bank—are also scheduled.
Serbia’s delegation will take part in the joint meeting of the Swiss constituency, which includes Serbia, as well as a closed meeting with governors and finance ministers to discuss regional economic prospects for Central and Eastern Europe.
Additionally, numerous bilateral meetings will be held with leaders and representatives of the IMF and the World Bank.
The NBS statement emphasized that various meetings have been arranged with executives from leading financial institutions and foreign investors interested in investing in Serbia, especially following the significant achievement of obtaining the country’s investment rating, which has long been deserved.
