The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is scheduled to meet on 15th of December 2025, to discuss and approve the fifth review of Sri Lanka’s Extended Fund Facility (EFF) programme.
In October, the IMF and Sri Lankan authorities reached a staff-level agreement on the economic policies required to complete the fifth review of the IMF-supported reform programme.
Once approved by the Executive Board, Sri Lanka will gain access to approximately US$347 million in financing.
According to the IMF, the reforms implemented by Sri Lankan authorities have continued to support the country’s economic recovery, with inflation moving toward target, foreign reserves increasing, and real GDP growth and revenue collection outperforming earlier projections.
The Extended Fund Facility, totaling SDR 2.3 billion (around US$3 billion), was originally approved by the IMF Executive Board on 20th of March 2023.
