For the parts with slower progress, the Secretariat will strengthen communication and supervision to ensure the Series can be published on time. At the same time, Wang Lu, associate editor-in-chief, cited specific requirements for draft and proofreading. Afterwards, Wei Benhua and the experts discussed specific technical issues in the later period of translation.

It is the most authoritative and detailed account of IMF, and also a history of global economic and financial reform. It is of great relevance to China’s financial reform, establishment of a monetary financial market system, RMB internationalization and participation in global monetary governance. With the exclusive authorization of IMF, since 2014, IMI has been jointly compiling and translating “Series of IMF History” with China Financial Publishing House. The Series, comprising 11 volumes and more than 4.3 million words, is translated into a foreign language for the first time.
