Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), said boosting growth and inclusive globalization requires teamwork and collaboration. "Michael Jordan once said talent wins games but teamwork and intelligence win championship. So winning the championship of growth and inclusive globalisation requires that teamwork and collaboration around the world." Lagarde said during the preparatory meetings on Monday ahead of the Annual Meetings of the Boards of Governors of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group (WBG), which kicked off in Washington. "stronger better growth is possible by using monetary fiscal structural policies in consent within countries and cross them ... We can make the whole greater than the sum of the parts." The Annual Meetings of the Boards of Governors of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group (WBG) bring together central bankers, ministers of finance and development, private sector executives, representatives from civil society organizations and academics to discuss issues of global concern, including the world economic outlook, poverty eradication, economic development, and aid effectiveness. Also featured are seminars, regional briefings, press conferences, and many other events focused on the global economy, international development, and the world's financial system.
