International Monetary Fund Executive Director Kristalina Georgieva has denied allegations that she pressured World Bank officials to change data in a report in favor of China when she headed the World Bank.
"Let me put it very simply to you. Not true. Neither in this case, nor before or after, I have put pressure on staff to manipulate data," Georgieva said during a meeting with IMF staff, Reuters reported. A report by WilmerHale law firm found that Kristalina Georgieva and other high-ranking bank employees had exerted pressure on officials to raise China's rating in the Business Climate rankings.
