The Pathfinder Foundation hosted In Conversation webinar in partnership with Daily FT will be held today from 2.30 p.m.-3.30 p.m. SLST, where Pathfinder Foundation Distinguished Fellow and Central
Bank of Sri Lanka former Governor Dr. Indrajit Coomaraswamy will conduct a discussion with Quaid-e-Azam University Campus, Islamabad Pakistan Institute of Development Economics Vice Chancellor Dr. Nadeem Ul Haque, who was also the IMF Resident Representative in Sri Lanka from 2000-2003.
Interested personals can register for this webinar via the zoom link https://rb.gy/ps6l9j or by visiting the Pathfinder Facebook page.
Sri Lanka has sought the support of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) 16 times. Therefore, the question has now been raised as to whether there is a benefit in seeking IMF support yet again. ‘Has the need to approach the IMF time and again been due to the Fund’s failed policies, or a lack of appropriate policies by Sri Lanka?’ and ‘Is the IMF well-positioned to assist Sri Lanka at this difficult time?’ would be key points of this discussion.
