IMF Strauss-Kahn:Slow Econ Recover More Likely Than Weakening



BEIJING -(Dow Jones)- International Monetary Fund Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said Monday the chance of the global economy weakening again is smaller than that of a further but slow recovery.

Among the risks to the recovery, Strauss-Kahn said there are still a lot of losses hidden in banks' balance sheets.

He was speaking at a discussion hosted by Tsinghua University in Beijing.
