Investigation continues into business ranking changes
The International Monetary Fund says it has "full confidence" in its managing director.
The statement follows allegations that World Bank staff were pressured to change business rankings for China, in an effort to please Beijing.
However, an investigation is continuing.
The United States - the IMF's largest shareholder - says it will monitor the situation closely.
