The IMF Board has selected Ray & Berndstson, a US-based international executive search firm, to identify candidates for the position of Director of the IMF‘s new independent Evaluation Office (EVO). Selection will be completed by mid-February 2001.
NGOs objected to the Boardís suggestion that an ex-Executive Director may be a suitable candidate, on the grounds that such an appointment could undermine the independence of the EVO.
Candidates should send their resume by January 19, 2001, to Jeffrey Minich.
