IMF Loans Argentina $50 Billion to Fend Off Economic Implosion

Argentina and the International Monetary Fund have agreed on a $50 billion stand-by deal aimed at strengthening the South American country’s economy.

President Mauricio Macri announced in May that Argentina would seek a financing deal with the IMF following a sharp devaluation of it currency and amid a tough global outlook. The deal brought back bad memories for Argentines who blame the IMF’s policies for the country’s worst economic crisis in 2001.
