Question

MF agrees to loan up to $50bn for Argentina



The International Monetary Fund has accepted to lend Argentina up to $50bn (£37.2bn) as the country seeks to improve its struggling economy.

The agreement, which lasts three years, must still be approved by the IMF board.

Argentina, which has faced economic problems for years, asked for help from the IMF on 8 May after its currency hit an all-time low.

The country has been trying to face its double digit inflation and public spending as part of the deal.

"The [Argentine] authorities have indicated that they intend to draw on the first tranche of the arrangement, but subsequently treat the loan as precautionary," the IMF said in a statement on Thursday.
