Sub-fonds consists of the files of the third Managing Director, Per Jacobsson of Sweden, who served as Managing Director from 1956 until his death in 1963. This sub-fonds consists of 8 series: Administration Files, Chronological Files, Correspondence, Jacobsson Estate Files, Meetings and Speeches, Social Events Files, Subject Files, and Travel Files. The files cover all aspects of IMF activity. There are files pertaining to the Managing Director's role at the Annual Meetings and invitations to speak at conferences and seminars. Some of these files contain remarks delivered by the Managing Director and several files of speeches given by Jacobsson. There are also several files pertaining to the publication of the Annual Report of the IMF. There is a limited number of correspondence files with contemporaries and colleagues of the Managing Director on issues relating to the IMF or country membership. Related to the correspondence files is a set of "Day Files" containing the Managing Director's outgoing correspondence file copies. There is also material that pertains to Jacobsson's death in London while on IMF business. Found in these files are memorial services programs, correspondence and memoranda regarding the repatriation of Mrs. Jacobsson along with the transfer of the Managing Director's papers. There are files relating to public appearances by the Managing Director, including an appearance on "Meet the Press" and an interview given to "Newsweek." Finally, there are "Social Files" which describe social functions organized and attended by the Managing Director, often to honor retiring staff or to host country delegations during an official visit to the IMF., Some folder titles have been renamed to more adequately reflect their contents. In 2003, the material was rearranged according to Jacobsson's primary activities. In addition, artificial series were created to further organize the files.
