The Central Bank had decreased its standing deposit facility rate and standing lending facility rate, indicating that the economy is entering a recovery phase. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) approved a three-billion-dollar Extended Fund Facility (EFF) to support Sri Lanka's economic policies and reforms. Sri Lanka is experiencing its worst economic crisis in over seven decades as a result of a lack of foreign reserves. EPA/CHAMILA KARUNARATHNE
