Bali Nusa Dua
IndonesiaThe 2018 Annual Meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank Group (WBG) will take place in Bali Nusa Dua, Indonesia, in October, following a vote by the Boards of Governors of the two institutions. The decision was formalized in 2015 when the Annual Meetings took place in Lima, Peru.
The Annual Meetings (AM) bring together central bankers, ministers of finance and development, private sector executives, civil society, media, and academics to discuss issues of global concern, including the world economic outlook, global financial stability, poverty eradication, jobs and growth, economic development, aid effectiveness, and climate change.
