Chairman of the Board of the Bank of Lithuania, Vitas Vasiliauskas, says that the recognition by one of the most influential global financial organisations not only marks the appreciation of Lithuania's development but also obligates to strive for sustainable economic development following fiscal discipline and consistently bringing Lithuania's financial system and the whole economy towards the most advanced economies of the world.
Lithuania has been classified as an advanced economy together with other countries of the euro area.
The IMF's World Economic Outlook classifies countries based on GDP per capita, export diversification and integration into the global financial system. Countries are grouped into advanced economies, emerging markets and developing economies.
