Summary

The economy is growing, inflation is receding, donor support is increasing, public debt is declining, and credit rating agencies have upgraded Suriname’s sovereign debt rating. The oil production from block 58 is set to begin in 2028 and the authorities are putting in place the institutions needed to transparently manage this resource windfall. Upon completion of this ninth review—the first ever IMF-supported program that Suriname will have completed—SRD 46.8 million (about USD 61.2 million) would be made available.
