The Economic and Financial Reforms Support Program (EFRSP) is premised on the fragility of Sudan, a country constrained by severe arrears on its debts to international financial institutions (IFIs) and other creditors, for which debt relief is needed in order to unlock access to concessionary funding. This operation is a grant of UA 144 million to the Republic of Sudan from Pillar I of the Transition Support Facility (TSF) ADF15 resources. The main goal is to complement Sudan’s efforts to advance its development agenda, notably to consolidate peace, accelerate poverty reduction, reduce income inequality and catalyze the much-needed financing for transformative and inclusive growth. The program consists of three broad components namely: (i) Advancing fiscal consolidation and financial governance; (ii) Advancing monetary and financial sector development, and (iii) Improving business enabling environment. The operation has been designed in anticipation of Sudan’s arrears clearance; a process being undertaken in collaboration with other development partners (DPs) including the United Kingdom (UK). It considers the need for the Bank to step up its re-engagement with Sudan in post-arrears clearance era, and to support the country’s on-going economic and financial governance reforms. The operation will lay the foundation for longer-term engagement in policy dialogue with the Republic of Sudan.
