IMF Reaches Staff-Level Agreement on the First Review of the Extended Credit Facility and Conducts Discussions on the 2023 Article IV Consultation with Zambia
• Zambia will have access to about US$188 million in financing once the review is approved by IMF Management and formally completed by the IMF Executive Board. To remove any hurdles to the timely completion of the review, Zambia needs official creditors to move forward and reach agreement on a debt treatment in line with the financing assurances they provided in July 2022.
