部分演讲原文如下：
A Delicate Moment for the Global Economy： Three Priority Areas for Action
By Christine Lagarde， IMF Managing Director
U.S. Chamber of Commerce， Washington， DC
April 2， 2019
Good morning—I would like to thank my friend Tom Donohue and the Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness for inviting me to this important event.
When I walked into this magnificent hall this morning， I was struck by the powerful image of the 12 flags. These are the banners of 12 great explorers， who opened new avenues for trade and planted the seeds of commercial and industrial growth in the New World.
That spirit is at the heart of the US Chamber of Commerce， which has been working hard for more than a century to help foster the American dream. The Chamber and the IMF have much in common.
They both take an international perspective； they both advocate for greater collaboration between government and the private sector； and， above all， they both are deeply committed to promotinggrowth，jobs， andopportunitiesfor all.
So this is a most fitting venue to discuss how to make growth more sustainable and inclusive； how to reduce trade tensions； and how to strengthen confidence and trust—in the economy and institutions.
These are also issues that Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors will discuss next week at the IMF and World Bank’s Spring Meetings here in Washington.
They will confront a changing economic landscape that places a premium on the right kind of policy action.
As President Theodore Roosevelt once put it： “There is every reason why we should face the future seriously， neither hiding from ourselves the gravity of the problems nor fearing to approach these problems with the unbending， unflinching purpose to solve them aright.”[i]
I would like to focus on how we can harness this “unbending purpose” for the benefit of all.
