G20 negotiators agreed to put off until 2011 setting "indicative guidelines" to assess economic imbalances and will call on the IMF to help find ways to measure them, a Group of 20 source said on Friday.

The agreement, which will be presented to Group of 20 leaders for their approval later on Friday, calls for the IMF to help develop a report for finance ministers and central bankers to consider at their next meeting in 2011.
