Libya: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2023 Article IV Mission

March 17, 2023
We welcome the opportunity to reengage with Libya via an Article IV consultation after a decade-long hiatus. The fragmentation of the country that followed the fall of the Ghaddafi regime in 2011 effectively suspended the production of key economic indicators and complicated policymaking, resulting in difficulties in conducting Article IV consultations. The authorities have recently made commendable progress towards improving data collection, sharing and transparency. Together with the flexibility afforded by the IMF’s new Fragile and Conflict-Affected States (FCS) strategy, this has paved the way for a resumption of Article IV consultations.

Trinidad and Tobago: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2023 Article IV Mission

March 16, 2023
Economic activity is recovering. Real GDP is estimated to have expanded by 2.5 percent in 2022, supported by the non-energy sector which was partially offset by an unexpected weak performance of the energy sector. Inflation increased, reaching 8.7 percent by end-2022, driven by imported energy and food prices, partial liberalization of domestic fuel prices in 2022, and domestic floodings. Banks’ credit to the private sector is recovering and the banking sector appears well-capitalized, liquid, and profitable. The current account surplus expanded, and foreign reserves coverage remained adequate at 7.6 months of prospective total imports.
