Nine things to know about Greece’s IMF debt default

In a recent commentary article for The Conversation, Dr André Broome explains the political and economic consequences of Greece defaulting on its IMF loan after missing its scheduled repayment on June 30. As Dr Broome points out, this is the first time an advanced economy has ever defaulted on its financial obligations to the IMF, and will make it difficult, if not impossible, for Greece to continue to cooperate with its international creditors regardless of the result of its bailout referedum on July 5.

Five things you need to know about the IMF's stance on Greece

In a recent commentary article for The Conversation, Dr André Broome argues that the International Monetary Fund's negotiating stance with Greece as part of the Troika with the European Commission and the European Central Bank is motivated by five main concerns. These are: (1) keeping the eurozone intact; (2) the reputational costs associated with a Greek default; (3) the Greek government's commitment to structural reform; (4) promoting major tax reforms in Greece; and (5) pressuring EU creditors to commit to debt relief in the future if an agreement with Greece is reached.
