Washington DC (22.07.2025): Deputy Managing Director at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Gita Gopinath is likely to step down and will return to Harvard University as a professor of economics. She will join the Harvard Economics Department on September 1, 2025 as the first Gregory and Ania Coffey Professor of Economics.
"After nearly 7 amazing years at the IMF, I have decided to return to my academic roots," Gopinath, the first female chief economist in IMF history, said in a post on X.

Before her tenure at the IMF, Gopinath held significant academic positions. She was the John Zwaanstra Professor of International Studies and Economics at Harvard from 2005 to 2022. Prior to that, she served as an assistant professor of economics at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business from 2001 to 2005. Gopinath joined the IMF in January 2019 as chief economist. Her contributions led to her promotion as the first deputy managing director in January 2022. Her work has been pivotal in addressing global economic challenges during her time at the IMF.
