Sri Lanka met 46 IMF commitments and failed 12 by end-Nov
The transparency in Sri Lanka’s ongoing International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme improved in November following the publication of several supporting documents with the 2024 budget, according to the latest update of Verité Research’s ‘IMF Tracker’. The supporting documents have provided information on the progress of six commitments which were previously classified as ‘unknown’. Five of the commitments have now been reclassified as ‘met’ and one – the tax revenue target – as 'not met’. Of the 73 commitments due by end-November, 12 are ‘not met’, 15 are classified as ‘unknown’, and 46 as ‘met’. Therefore, 63% of the commitments due by end November have been verifiably completed. This means, however, that Sri Lanka’s overall performance remains less than impressive.
