International Monetary Fund Managing Director 2011 election The selection process for the new Managing Director of the IMF in 2011 presents characteristics that have never been seen.

In particular the BRIC nations, together with South Africa and Mexico, have expressed their strong opposition to assign the Managing Director position based on geographical characteristics as opposed to a merit-based approach.
