IMF Deal Taking Too Long - Hill

Feb 04, 2013

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Gleaner — FORMER INVESTMENT banker Aubyn Hill says the Government is taking too long to negotiate a new agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Finance Minister Dr Peter Phillips had set a December 2012 deadline for the sealing of a deal with the multilateral, but to date none as materialised. In an interview with The Gleaner shortly after Opposition Spokesman on Finance Audley Shaw tore into the Government for its handing of the economy at a Rotary Club of Kingston luncheon, Hill said he does not believe in setting timelines for the Government to close deals.
