“Argentina became the first country to be censured by the International Monetary Fund for not providing accurate data on inflation and economic growth under a procedure that can end in expulsion.

While it doesn’t have immediate effects, the decision takes the country a step closer to sanctions that include being barred from access to IMF loans.”
