As I shared with students in Argentina, AI can boost growth & productivity, but it will also transform jobs. With about 40% of jobs worldwide affected, the challenge is helping young people gain the skills & adaptability needed to thrive. Thank you Lara López Calvo for moderating.

One of my favorite summer traditions is meeting participants of the IMF Teen Summer Program. Their questions are thoughtful, their perspectives fresh, and their optimism contagious.

It was a privilege to welcome President Ahmad al-Sharaa to the IMF. We discussed the economic transformation Syrians need & deserve—which his government is making possible. I reiterated IMF's readiness to help including through our existing technical support for key institutions.

My experience with Muay Thai, Thailand's iconic sport, earlier this year offered a fitting preview of the 2026 Annual Meetings. With its vibrant energy, technological advancements, and rich cultural heritage, Thailand is well positioned to seize new opportunities.

Thank you, Greece, for becoming the newest partner of our capacity development work. As I told FM Kyriakos Pierrakakis, Greece has come a long way: from a country needing support to now able to help others. It will contribute to SEETAC, strengthening economic institutions in SE Europe.

The war in the Middle East has disrupted oil and gas flows. But the impact is far from even. Energy exporters face smaller headwinds, while countries hit by conflict or reliant on imports bear the greatest costs. The chart shows why policy space matters.

Morocco inspired the world at the FIFA World Cup⚽️ last year. What a treat to meet @WalidRegraguiof & his #AtlasLions in Rabat! Équipe du Maroc showed us that with unity, hard work & determination no challenge is too big. This is the spirit we want to see at #Marrakech2023 in October.

Over 80% of countries in the world are net oil importers. Vulnerable economies—especially in Sub Saharan Africa and small island states—are bearing the brunt of this shock. Our members will come together next week to find a path forward. Full speech:

Not all imbalances are the same. Some reflect a country’s stage of development—but it is excessive imbalances that should concern us. This distinction shaped my discussion with Bank of England Governor, Andrew Bailey, Kristin J Forbes, Adam Posen, and Hélène Rey.
