Abstract

The first review of Maldives’ economic performance under the Stand-By Arrangement (SBA) and the Arrangement under the Exogenous Shocks Facility is discussed. The fiscal deficit in 2009 was estimated at 26¼ percent of GDP, 2½ percentage points lower than previously projected. The growth of monetary aggregates slowed down in line with projections. A key risk concerns the ability of the government to maintain the public sector wage cuts. A negative outcome on this would have a large fiscal impact.
