Скачать или смотреть How the IMF Became the Most Powerful Lender on Earth (And Controls Economies)

The International Monetary Fund was created to stabilize the global economy. Today, it can decide the future of entire nations with a single agreement. This documentary-style explainer breaks down how the IMF works, why countries like Indonesia, Argentina, Greece, and Pakistan end up borrowing from it, and what really happens when the fund steps in during a crisis.

We trace the IMF’s origins at Bretton Woods, examine how conditionality evolved from simple safeguards into sweeping economic restructuring, and explore why its largest shareholders—especially the United States and Europe—shape its ideology.

You’ll learn how crises expand the IMF’s influence, why countries borrow not just money but credibility, and why the cost of reforms often falls hardest on ordinary citizens. The goal isn’t to praise or condemn the IMF, but to understand the institution that quietly governs the global financial system.
If you want a clear, balanced, and deeply researched explanation of how global finance really works, this video is for you.
