Book Description
The fundamental recognition in this book is that the issue of what international legal principles are applicable to the operations of the IFIs is an important topic that would benefit from more rigorous study. Twelve deeply committed contributors - whose work spans the academic, policy, and activist spectrum - suggest that a better understanding of these legal issues could help both the organizations and their Member States structure their transactions in ways that are more compatible with their developmental objectives and their international responsibilities.

Legal Aspects of Central Bank Digital Currency: Central Bank and Monetary Law Considerations
Author: Wouter Bossu
Publisher: INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND
ISBN: 9781513561622
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
This paper analyzes the legal foundations of central bank digital currency (CBDC) under central bank and monetary law. Absent strong legal foundations, the issuance of CBDC poses legal, financial and reputational risks for central banks. While the appropriate design of the legal framework will up to a degree depend on the design features of the CBDC, some general conclusions can be made. First, most central bank laws do not currently authorize the issuance of CBDC to the general public. Second, from a monetary law perspective, it is not evident that “currency” status can be attributed to CBDC. While the central bank law issue can be solved through rather straithforward law reform, the monetary law issue poses fundmental legal policy challenges.

Interpretation:The IMF and International Law
Author: Joseph Gold
Publisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 694
Book Description
This work concentrates largely on the practice of the IMF in matters of interpretation. The work shows that the motive for resorting to interpretation is not always the obscurity or ambiguity of texts. Other considerations may be taken into account, such as demonstrating that consensus or broad agreement exists on a particular decision. The motive for an interpretative decision may be to prevent the appearance of dictation by one class of members to another class. A similar motive helps to explain why special majorities of the total voting power of all members are required by the treaty for specified categories of decisions.
