International Monetary Fund

No 2026/016, IMF Policy Papers from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: This paper updates the projections of the Fund’s income position for FY 2026 and FY 2027–2028 and proposes related decisions for the current and the following financial years. The paper includes proposed decisions to transfer SDR 1.38 billion of GRA resources to the Interim Placement Administered Account and to transfer estimated Fixed Income income and a payout from the Endowment Subaccount to help meet administrative expenses. It also includes a proposed decision to keep the margin for the rate of charge unchanged at 60 basis points for FY 2027–2028. The Fund’s total comprehensive income for FY 2026 is projected at about SDR 3.8 billion; reflecting an estimated pension-related remeasurement gain and retained income in the Investment Account. The Executive Board approved these decisions on April 28; 2026.
