Sri Lanka’s Current IMF Programme: 110 ongoing commitments, 62 due by March 2024
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has published its evaluation of Sri Lanka’s performance in the first phase or ‘first term’ of the ongoing Extended Fund Facility (EFF) programme, which commenced in March 2023. Verité Research updated its ‘IMF Tracker’, based on all information available, including in the IMF evaluation titled ‘First Review Under the Extended Arrangement Under The Extended Fund Facility’. Sri Lanka had ‘met’ (with some delays) 60 of the 73 commitments due by end-November 2023. The 13 remaining commitments were ‘not met’. Of these 13, eight have been carried forward into the second term, or the period leading up to the second review. Five were irreversibly ‘not met’, and therefore, cannot be carried forward.
