A Mission of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will pay a working visit to Georgia on May 12-19.
The delegation, led by John Wakeman-Linn, Head of the IMF’s Middle East and Central Asian Department, will hold talks with President of the National Bank of Georgia (NBG) Roman Gotsiridze on May 12, the NBG’s press office reported.
The Mission’s visit aims at assessing the current economic situation in the country and discussing Georgia’s performance under the Poverty Reduction and Economic Growth Program (PREGP), through which Georgia has already received USD 80 million between 2004-2006.
