The establishment of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank

80

years ago

22 July 1944,

The establishment of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank was approved. These two institutions have been indispensable instruments to drive capitalism around the world since the Second World War. They emerged from the Bretton Woods agreements, especially from the ideas of the American economist Harry Dexter White and the British economist John Maynard Keynes, II. They partnered with representatives from 44 countries in the World War.
