As of November 2021, to be had overseas foreign money reserves have been simply USD 1.6 billion whilst withinside the subsequent 12 months, the authorities and personal zone of Sri Lanka will pay off an anticipated USD 7.three billion in home and overseas loans, along with a USD 500 million global sovereign bond reimbursement in January 2022, the document stated.

Inflation hit a document excessive of 11.1 in step with cent in November and escalating fees have left people who have been formerly properly off suffering to feed their families, whilst fundamental items at the moment are unaffordable for many.

The former imperative financial institution deputy governor, WA Wijewardena warned that the struggles of normal humans could exacerbate the monetary disaster, which could in flip make lifestyles more difficult for them. The World Bank estimates 500,000 humans have fallen under the poverty line for the reason that the start of the pandemic, Guptil stated.

The Sri Lankan authorities additionally plan to settle it’s beyond oil money owed with Iran via way of means of paying them with tea, sending them USD five million really well worth of tea each month with a purpose to save “much-wished foreign money”.

Moreover, Colombo has determined to shut 3 foreign places diplomatic missions from December 2021 to reduce down expenditure withinside the face of the continuing monetary disaster and greenback crunch. However, those measures will offer handiest short-time period comfort and the loans will be paid lower back at excessive-hobby rates, including to Sri Lanka’s debt load, Guptil brought.
