Summary

Ecuador is making significant progress in the implementation of its economic reform program. The authorities have embarked on a set of decisive policy actions and reforms to address fiscal and external imbalances, supported by the 48-month Extended Fund Facility (EFF) arrangement approved by the Executive Board in May 2024 of SDR 3 billion (430 percent of quota, about US$4 billion). The core objectives of the EFF-supported program are to (i) strengthen fiscal sustainability, while protecting vulnerable groups; (ii) safeguard dollarization and macroeconomic stability; (iii) rebuild liquidity buffers; (iv) enhance financial stability and integrity; and (v) further advance the structural reform agenda to promote sustainable and inclusive growth.
