1/11/19: Multiple sources – Finance Minister Ibrahim Elbadawi: IMF, World Bank and African Development Bank agree roadmap to support Sudan

Sudan has agreed a roadmap to “rehabilitate” the country with the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and African Development Bank, according to Finance Minister Ibrahim Elbadawi.

 The plan involved structural reforms, Elbadawi said, but he did not go into further details.

 He added that Sudan’s debt relief programme will start by the end of 2020, and that it will be financed by the “friends of Sudan,” after the finance ministry submitted funding requests for 20 projects to donors that Elbadawi did not identify.
