The Provincial Court of Madrid on Friday sentenced Spanish politician and former Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Rodrigo Rato to four years, nine months, and one day in prison for corruption and money laundering crimes. The verdict concludes a criminal investigation that began in 2015, prompted by an alert from the Anti-Fraud Office regarding irregularities in Rato’s asset declarations.
