The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has urged the UK government to “reevaluate” its strategy to boost economic growth with massive tax cuts funded by borrowing, which has spooked the markets and caused the pound to plunge.
The British pound on Monday plunged by more than 4 percent to just $1.03, an all-time low. It recovered to about $1.08 on Tuesday, but fell back to $1.06 on Wednesday morning.
