IMF praises Argentina reforms

"The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said it will resume talks about fresh loans for the troubled Argentine economy. "

"Argentine President Eduardo Duhalde's aim is to secure initial loans of $9bn (£6.2bn) which would be used to stabilise the country's economy. "

"Earlier this week, the Fund's Managing Director Horst Koehler said that an agreement could be reached within 45 days."

"The Fund agreed to send a delegation to Argentina next week after finding that the country has complied with the bulk of its demands for economic reforms. "

"The IMF's main conditions were that Argentina would push through:

  • changes to its bankruptcy law in an effort to protect creditors
  • changes to an economic subversion law in an effort to protect foreign investors
  • the implementation of spending cuts by the country's provinces
