Supplement to 2018 Guidance Note on the Bank-Fund Debt Sustainability Framework for Low Income Countries
August 5, 2024
Summary
Since the publication of the 2018 Guidance Note, several issues have increased in significance, requiring more tailored guidance on the implementation of the LIC-DSF to address these issues, including:
• Greater prominence of risks from climate change.
• Further increase in borrowing on commercial terms and in domestic markets.
• Increased number and complexity of debt restructurings.
This Supplement to the 2018 Guidance Note on the LIC-DSF provides further guidance on how to address these issues within the current framework. All aspects of the 2018 LIC-DSF Guidance Note remain in effect, except as modified in this Supplement.
