It was great to speak at @Economist_SEUR event in Sofia. Bulgaria's euro zone accession is a milestone. For convergence to continue, efforts should focus on governance, human capital and innovation. Bulgaria can use its new voice in Europe to support a deeper EU Single Market.

Wysoki wzrost gospodarczy i niska inflacja sprawiają wrażenie idealnej sytuacji gospodarczej. Jednak pod powierzchnią kryje się niepokojąca nierównowaga: deficyt budżetowy Polski jest drugim co do wielkości w Europie, a dług publiczny szybko rośnie.

Good discussion on @EFCongress survey about challenges to Poland’s economy. The best time to pursue reforms that boost potential is when the economy is doing well.

Meet Carlos Mulas Granados, the IMF's new Resident Representative for Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe, based in Warsaw.

[IMFinCEE @IMFinCEE]

Great to speak at @ftlive's CEE Forum 2026.

CESEE countries will grow faster than advanced Europe this and next year. Still, it's vital for them to adjust to a challenging external environment by focusing on both domestic and EU-level reforms, like completing the Single Market.

Mi nuevo articulo en EC: La inflación: lo que la historia nos dice https://t.co/B9Xx6KhBRD

[IMF Offices in Europe @IMFinEurope]

@voxeu Fighting inflation is painful but pays off in the medium term. Output losses from tight monetary policies dissipate once inflation is brought under control.
By contrast, leaving inflation to linger comes with long-lasting costs of macroeconomic instability and inefficiency.

[IMF Offices in Europe @IMFinEurope]

The IMF analyzed over 100 inflation shocks since the 1970s.
Key lessons:
• Fighting inflation is a long slog
• Declaring victory prematurely is a common and costly mistake.
• Consistently tight monetary policy is key

It’s a special Diwali this year as the UK has its first Prime Minister of Indian origin. Congratulations @RishiSunak.

La muerte de @ontiverosemilio nos llena de tristeza a todos aquellos que tuvimos la suerte de colaborar con él. Echaremos de menos sus conocimientos y su humanidad. También su cercanía y sus abrazos en los momentos difíciles. Emilio, gracias por todo y hasta siempre.

[Gita Gopinath @GitaGopinath]

In the UK, labor market tightness & 3-year inflation expectations have exceeded levels seen in past inflationary episodes. In addition to @bankofengland‘s rate hikes the authorities could consider raising more revenues now & shift spending to the future. https://t.co/34V7EbPLpf

In our latest World Economic Outlook, we project global growth of 5.5% for 2021 but much depends on the outcome of the race between the virus and vaccines, and on the policy support provided. Read @GitaGopinath’s latest #IMFblog. #WEO https://t.co/l6a6MLEYha
