Abstract
This study examines individual expressions of confidence in the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund using the World Values Survey-Wave 7 data to determine whether alignment of individual beliefs with institutional policies supports confidence and whether national borrowing from these institutions with attendant conditionalities erodes confidence. The main hypothesis tested is that confidence in each organization is positively associated with alignment of survey respondents’ economic beliefs and the policies of the organizations. Results indicate that closer alignment of beliefs with organization policies is positively associated with greater confidence but greater national borrowing from either organization erodes confidence. Conditionalities for assistance are resented by citizens in recipient countries.
