Compensatory financing facility (CFF)

One of the key duties of the IMF is its Compensatory financing facility(CFF), which attempts to reduce the impact of export instability on country economies. Although it is available to all IMF members, this facility is used mainly by developing countries. A country experiencing financial problems due to reduced export earnings must demonstrate that the reduction is temporary and beyond its control. In addiction, it must be willing to work with the IMF in resolving the problem.
