Tracking the Global Economy - IMF on You Tube

The IMF has a video channel on You Tube - a mix of interviews with notable economists and short features on individual countries such as the UK and Poland (both featured in recent months). Keeping in mind the traditional IMF policy prescriptions for economic reforms in countries where it is asked to provide bail-outs, the video resources may well be useful for colleagues wanting to embed some current video content in their teaching of global economics. Here is the link to their You Tube channel.
