SHANGHAI, Dec. 8 (Xinhua) — The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Monday officially launched its regional center in Shanghai, with IMF economist Johannes Wiegand taking over as director.
The Shanghai center, one of a series of regional centers established by the IMF around the world, is expected to expand the IMF's engagement with the Asia-Pacific region, the IMF said.
The new institution will serve as a hub for research and knowledge sharing that will provide policy advice in relevant areas to emerging market and middle-income countries, the statement said.
