SHANGHAI, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Countries have multiple policy options, including capital controls, in their tool kits to deal with potentially destabilising money flows, International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn said on Monday.
According to the prepared text of his speech, Strauss-Kahn also said that lower interest rates, an accumulation of foreign currency reserves and tighter fiscal policy could be used in the face of capital flows.
His remarks were delivered at the close of a meeting of global central bankers and finance officials in Shanghai. (Reporting by Farah Master and Kevin Yao; Editing by Ken Wills)
