Summary Although only indirectly linked to its mandate, the Fund regards issues of social welfare as fundamental. Policy objectives such as macroeconomic stability, external viability, and medium-term sustainability are not ends in themselves, but are means to ultimately improve the social welfare in countries seeking the Fund's advice. Sound macroeconomic policies, growth-enhancing structural reforms, and good social policies are the conditions for sustainable growth that generate higher levels of employment and real income. Growth that is extremely unequal, benefiting only a few and inhibiting widespread social improvement, has proven unsustainable and is therefore not satisfactory. 2 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 25-26) Notes Master and use copy.
