What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The International Monetary Fund projects that Sri Lanka will raise $3 billion through International Sovereign Bond issues by 2028, though the government will decide whether to tap global markets. The IMF's review staff report assumes $1.5 billion will be raised in both 2027 and 2028, with no projection for 2026 or 2029. At the end of May 2026, outstanding currency swaps totaled $4.1 billion, and nearly all $2.3 billion in domestic swaps are due within a year.
