In order to better carry out the other half of its dual mandate, the IMF has signaled that it will ask for a further increase in its resources, to $1 trillion, up from the $750 billion agreed at the London G-20 meeting in April 2009. In the spring of 2010, the IMF committed upwards of $300 billion to Southern Europe alone.
为了更好地贯彻IMF双重宗旨的另外一半，IMF已经释出信号，表明它将增募资金，从2009年4月伦敦G20会议上通过的7500亿美元增加到1万亿美元。2010年春季，光是为了帮助南欧，IMF就许诺了3000亿美元。显然，它需要更多的弹药。
