IMF allows to draw US$ 336 million following second review completion

The Intentional Monetary Fund (IMF) announced the completion of the second review under the 48-month Extended Fund Facility (EFF) Arrangement, allowing Sri Lanka to draw SDR 254 million (about US$336 million).

This brings the total IMF financial support disbursed so far to SDR 762 million (about US$1 billion).

The Executive Board also concluded the 2024 Article IV Consultation with Sri Lanka.

In the official statement released earlier today, the IMD said its directors welcomed the progress made to advance debt restructuring to restore Sri Lanka’s debt sustainability.
