In this video we’re going to deal with the relationship between the International Monetary Fund and Argentina. We’ll talk about a relationship that is so special it’s close to celebrating its 70th anniversary. And it’s doing so with a brand new rescue package. Although this is hardly surprising since, on average, Argentina has had to negotiate an IMF rescue every four and a half years since the mid-50s.

Now, why on earth does Argentina go back again and again to the IMF? Whose fault is it? Can this relationship ever come to an end? Was Mauricio Macri irresponsible when he asked the IMF for more money?

In this video we’ll answer these and other questions, which help to explain the particular connection between Argentina and the IMF.
