 THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND (IMF)
The IMF, unlike other traditional partners whose support is largely project based, provides support to Sierra Leone based on the programmes of economic policies agreed with the Government of Sierra Leone.
In 2020, the IMF board approved $143 million or 50 percent of the Quota under the Rapid Credit Facility (RCF) to meet the urgent balance of payment and fiscal need stemming from the COVID 19 and an Extended Credit Facility (ECF) amounting to $21.13 million which facilitated a total disbursement estimated at $164.34 million as direct budget support for the COVID-19 response. In addition to this, the IMF is currently providing debt service relief amounting to $84 million, which is set to end in April 2022.
