Summary

The Rwandan economy is undergoing challenging times. Development needs remain large and compounded shocks in recent years resulted in emerging internal and external imbalances. Devastating floods from May 2023 amplified the underlying imbalances, and the reconstruction costs are projected to be substantial. Against this backdrop, the authorities requested a new Fund financing arrangement to safeguard macroeconomic and external stability in the near term. A 3-year Policy Coordination Instrument (PCI) and Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) arrangements were approved in December 2022.
