Treasury Statement Following IMF Article IV Consultation
June 24, 2022

WASHINGTON — Earlier today, Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen met with International
Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva to discuss this yearʼs Article IV
consultation with the United States. Secretary Yellen reiterated the importance of frank and
thorough assessments of all IMF member economies through the annual surveillance process,
especially as countries deal with the e ects of Russiaʼs war against Ukraine and the COVID-19
pandemic. They discussed the key economic priorities of the Biden Administration and
outlook for the U.S. economy. They also discussed the need to respond e ectively to ongoing
supply chain disruptions from the pandemic and Putinʼs unjustified war of aggression.
The United States values the IMFʼs economic surveillance. As part of its longstanding support
for transparency, the Treasury Department will publish all U.S. Article IV documents on its
website following the Executive Boardʼs discussion in July, including the IMFʼs Concluding
Statement and Sta Report and the U.S. statement in response to the report.
