IMF loans are not from US taxation
IMF 6/23 (International Monetary Fund | “Where the IMF Gets Its Money” | June 30, 2023 | https://www.imf.org/en/About/Factsheets/Where-the-IMF-Gets-Its-Money#:~:text=Who%20funds%20the%20IMF%3F,multilateral%20and%20bilateral%20borrowing%20agreements. | DOA: 7/23/23 | Saaπ)
The money the IMF loans to its members on its general – or non-concessional – terms comes from member countries, mainly through their payment of quotas. Multilateral and bilateral arrangements can supplement quota funds and plays a critical role in the IMF’s support for member countries in times of crisis. The IMF’s current total resources of about SDR 983 billion translate into a capacity for lending of about SDR 696 billion (around US$925 billion), as at end-June 2023.
Who funds the IMF?¶ IMF funds come from three sources: member quotas, multilateral and bilateral borrowing agreements.
