Staff Guidance Note on Debt Limits in Fund-Supported Programs

Published By: IMF on eSS | Published Date: December, 18 , 2009

In August 2009, the Executive Board approved new guidelines on external debt limits in Fund-supported programs. Debt limits seek to prevent the build-up of unsustainable debts, while allowing for adequate external financing.
