INDIAN FINANCE MINISTER URGES IMF TO LEAD IN REGULATING CRYPTO — GEORGIEVA SAYS
IMF READY TO WORK WITH INDIA




India’s finance minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, has urged the International
Monetary Fund (IMF) to take “a lead role” in regulating crypto assets. IMF
Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva says the global organization stands ready
to work with India on climate change, crypto regulation, and other global
challenges of our times.


INDIA WANTS IMF TO LEAD IN CRYPTO REGULATION

Indian Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman met with Kristalina Georgieva, the
managing director and chairman of the executive board of the International
Monetary Fund (IMF), in New Delhi on Wednesday. The two discussed a wide range
of topics, including India’s upcoming G20 presidency and crypto regulation.

According to India’s Ministry of Finance, Sitharaman and Georgieva discussed the
significance of regulating crypto assets and the need to have a “globally
coordinated, synchronized approach to the issue.” In addition, the Indian
finance minister urged the IMF to “play a lead role in this regard.”



Sitharaman’s statement echoed her call for a global regulatory framework for
cryptocurrencies during a meeting with the IMF and World Bank in April. The
Indian finance chief warned of money laundering and terror financing risks
affecting all countries, noting that no country could handle these risks alone.
She emphasized that crypto assets could only be regulated when countries
collaborate.

Georgieva tweeted after the meeting with the finance minister Wednesday,
confirming that the IMF “stands ready to work” with the Indian finance minister
“on climate change, crypto regulation and other global challenges of our times.”





Following her meeting with Sitharaman, Georgieva told CNBC TV18 Friday that the
IMF is aligned with India on crypto regulation, stressing the importance of
balancing the pros and cons. The IMF managing director elaborated:

> India’s digital ecosystem is on steroids as cryptos have emerged strongly
> without regulations. It is important to remember that cryptos are like the
> wild, Wild West.

Georgieva further noted that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has put an
emphasis on the advantages of leveraging India’s experience in digitization,
adding that a more pragmatic roadmap can be worked out with clear deliverables.
“It would be fantastic if India uses its leadership to ensure more transparency
and data ownership,” the IMF chief concluded.
