Eurogroup President and Minister for Finance of Ireland, Paschal Donohoe, will represent the euro area at the Annual Meetings of the IMF and World Bank Group in Washington, DC, this week.
As President of the Eurogroup, Minister Donohoe will participate in the G7 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors’ meeting as well as in a range of IMF meetings. The Annual Meetings provide an opportunity for Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors from around the world along with leading figures from the IMF and World Bank to meet and discuss global economic and development challenges, including the IMF’s assessment of the global economic outlook. The Eurogroup President will also participate in a series of media engagements to highlight the European economic and financial policy agenda.
The IMF and World Bank Group celebrated their 80-year anniversary last year, and now, maybe more than any time in recent memory, they are needed to help address the global challenges that we face. Multilateralism, particularly in the face of persistent and ongoing global conflicts and recent economic turbulence, is key for securing effective and resilient outcomes. During my visit, I look forward to a series of constructive engagements with Ministerial colleagues and officials at the IMF and the World Bank on how best to address these economic challenges and further our shared goals.
