We need to work together,” he added.Last week, the IMF announced that it was making $50 billion available for efforts to address the pandemic, including $10 billion that can be lent interest-free to poor and developing countries affected by the virus.Rice also said the IMF would update its forecasts when it issues its report on global economic growth prospects in mid-April.The world economy grew by 2.9% in 2019, and in January the IMF had forecast 3.3% growth for 2020. However, even before the coronavirus crisis, the Fund had warned that this recovery would be fragile, vulnerable, and warned against any external element that could threaten it.Oscar SchneiderThe Brussels Times</blockquote>
