The International Monetary Fund (IMF) was established to oversee the newly agreed upon monetary system. During the 1960s, the U.S. Treasury was obligated to convert dollars to gold by demand of foreign central banks. The IMF was an agency within the United Nations, established to effectively promote monetary cooperation between countries and to facilitate trade expansion, and to improve economic conditions and contribute to increased employment in all member countries.
Different from the IMF, the World Bank, formally known as the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, was initially intended for financing of postwar reconstruction and development. Currently, the World Bank has two important goals to boost shared prosperity and ending extreme poverty within a generation. They also provide grants and low interest loans to developing countries and invest in agriculture, health, and education.
