Sri Lanka: State of the Economy 2023

Sri Lanka: State of the Economy 2023 report aims to provide a critical assessment of the country’s economic performance and near-term outlook for growth and macroeconomic stability amidst the challenges of dealing with the country’s unprecedented economic crisis and a volatile global economic and political order. As such, the report will examine Sri Lanka’s economic outlook on growth and development in the face of both domestic and external policy conditions. As the country makes slow progress in stabilisation and recovery efforts, the report will focus on the policy choices and debates in key areas of reform such as fiscal policy, trade, labour and land markets, education and health financing, migration, social protection, and sustainable development in energy.
