BIBLIOGRAPHIC LEVEL: part of a serial Defunding Latin America / Feinberg, Richard E. REFERENCE TO GENERIC UNIT (Periodica): Third world quarterly : No. 11(3)., p. 71-84. - London : Third World Foundation for Social and Economic Studies, 1989. LANGUAGE: ENG ABSTRACT: The international financial institutions must address two key issues as they confront the debt and development problems of Latin America. Both issues centre on the urgent need to reduce the transfer of resources (approximately 20 billion each year) from Latin America to the international financial system: first, whether the IFIS can reverse the disturbing trend of joining the commercial banks as net financial drains on the capital-short region; and second, what role they should play in reducing the persistant transfer of financial resources from Latin America to private lenders. Both these issues are central to the basic agenda of the International Fonetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). These institutions were established in part to tranfer capital from North to South and to catalyse the movement of private capital to profitable investments in developing nations. The challange facing the IFIS in the 1990s is to fulfil these aims in the face of new and difficult circumstances. INDEX WORDS:
