IMF Tracker Update: September 2023

Abstract

The purpose of this analysis is to ensure that VR’s IMF Tracker can be used more effectively to raise public awareness on the monitoring of public finance. The analysis will feed into enhancing public participation and transparency in budget processes, which is urgently needed given Sri Lanka’s low performance in this respect. This set of infographics analyses the government’s progress on meeting 100 trackable IMF commitments for September 2023 and explains the EFF-supported program. According to the August analysis, Sri Lanka has so far met 40% of IMF commitments, while 21% of the commitments are unknown, 10% are not met and 29% are pending.
