Governors from 176 of the Fund’s 185 member countries cast votes to sell the gold, in order to create an endowment to helps provide a steadier source of income to the international organisation.

The new income and expenditure framework is expected to cover a 400 million-dollar shortfall projected in the medium term.

An IMF austerity program, announced April 7th, also calls for a 13.5 percent cutback in IMF spending over the next three years.

The IMF was created over 60 years ago with a mission to foster global financial stability.
