(Reuters) – The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday said that progress had been made in negotiations with El Salvador toward a fund-supported program with the Central American nation.
Discussions focused on policies that could be supported by an IMF program, it said in a statement, such as those which could strengthen public finances, boost bank reserve buffers, improve governance and transparency and mitigate risks from the country’s investment in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.
