I imagine that this will definitely heat things up:

Officials with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have informed Bernanke about a plan that would have been unheard-of in the past: a general
examination of the US financial system. The IMF's board of directors has ruled that a so-called Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) is to be
carried out in the United States. It is nothing less than an X-ray of the entire US financial system.
I don't think this will shock anyone:
For seven years, US President George W. Bush refused to allow the IMF to conduct its assessment. Even now, he has only given the IMF board his consent
under one important condition. The review can begin in Bush's last year in office, but it may not be completed until he has left the White House.
