Bolivia: Sixth Review Under the Stand-By Arrangement and Requests for Modification and Waiver of Nonobservance and Applicability of Performance Criteria, Rephasing, and Reduction of Access, (USA: International Monetary Fund, 2005) accessed October 6, 2024

Summary

The staff report for the Sixth Review under the Stand-By Arrangement and Requests for Waiver of Performance Criteria on Bolivia highlights economic developments and preliminary macroeconomic framework. The economy is characterized by a number of vulnerabilities that require policy vigilance. These include a highly dollarized financial system subject to deposit runs and a fiscal position sensitive to revenue/expenditure-sharing arrangements between the central and subnational governments. Policies to ensure continued macroeconomic stability will provide continuity and a framework for sound policy action by the successor government.
