Description

It’s been 15 years since the arrival of the IMF to Ireland after the financial crash. The IMF programmes after 2008 were the first European programmes for the body since 1953. This, along with the major work the IMF has done in developing countries, make it one of the most influential world organisations in times of crisis.

Joining Ciara Doherty to discuss is Colm McCarthy, Economist and Pat Leahy, Irish Times Political Editor.
