International Monetary Fund (IMF) has given warning to the developed countries to cut their spending budgets in order to condition the economy is not deteriorating. The warning came after a number of countries in Europe have to deal with the riots that occurred due to economic conditions. The IMF also suggested that policymakers should be able to lower average debt ratio of up to 110% of GDP in 2015.

One of the suggestions given by the IMF for the economic recovery is to tighten the VAT policy by eliminating tax cuts in some businesses such as books, children's clothing and food as well. According to the IMF, if the British adopted this policy then there is the possibility he will gain up to 3.3% of GDP without having to raise VAT. The IMF is more focused to England because that State is a State with the largest debt increase during the last 20 years compared with other developed countries. Estimated deficit of Greece during the year amounted to 8.1% of GDP. Whereas other countries with a severe deficit is Ireland at 12.2%, UK 11.4%, and the United States amounted to 11%. Nevertheless, these countries are not too worried about than the Greek because they are underpinned by a strong economy.
