IMF approves Lipsky as first deputy MD

The International Monetary Fund's board on Thursday 1 June approved John Lipsky as IMF first deputy managing director, the second-highest position at the Fund.

Lipsky is set to begin a five-year term in his new position on Sept. 1.

Lipsky, a U.S. citizen, is currently vice chairman of J.P. Morgan Investment Bank.
