When countries have severe balance of payments difficulties caused by unsustainable current account deficits, they can approach the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for assistance. In providing financial assistance, the IMF generally insists that the country implement a series of policy changes designed to reduce the deficit. These programs are controversial as they tend to focus on demand reduction. Explain why demand reduction would solve a current account deficit problem.
