International Monetary Fund

No 2026/014, IMF Policy Papers from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: The Integrated Policy Framework (IPF) assists IMF staff in providing advice on the joint use of foreign exchange intervention (FXI), macroprudential measures (MPMs), and capital flow management measures (CFMs), alongside standard monetary and fiscal policies. This note provides overarching considerations in applying the IPF to low-income countries (LICs), building on previous Fund advice.
