Directors endorsed the CPF’s selectivity and concentration of WBG resources to catalyze private investment, jobs, and growth, while emphasizing structural reforms and macro-fiscal stability. Priority themes include resilience to shocks, targeted support for lagging regions, and inclusive opportunity creation through AgriConnect. The summary also highlights a unified One WBG approach, attention to debt stability and lessons from the prior CPF, and partnership continuity with the IMF and multilateral development banks.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nSri Lanka-Country Partnership Framework  \nChair Summary*  \nMarch 31, 2026  \nThe Board of Executive Directors discussed the Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka for FY26–FY30 .  \nDirectors welcomed the CPF's selectivity and focus on concentrating World Bank Group (WBG) resources on sectors with the strongest potential to mobilize private investment and generate jobs. Directors also stressed the importance of structural reforms, maintaining focus on and support for macro fiscal stability as the foundation for growth and jobs. They highlighted the AgriConnect initiative as a vehicle for inclusive rural job creation and market integration.  \nDirectors commended the operationalization of a fully unified One WBG approach, building on Sri Lanka's transition to a joint WBG Country Manager position. They noted that mobilizing WBG instruments and knowledge will be critical in supporting inclusive growth and the country's development agenda and recognized the importance of WBG operations. They recognized the potential impacts posed by the Middle East conflict and inquired about how the CPF will include options for the WBG to respond to these risks.  \nDirectors welcomed the program's focus on lagging regions, particularly the historically underserved Northern and Eastern provinces. They highlighted the critical importance of building resilience to shocks and integrating recommendations of the CCDR during implementation. They also welcomed the efforts to expand economic opportunities for women and youth across the tourism, agribusiness, and digital sectors.  \nDirectors acknowledged macroeconomic challenges and the impact of multiple crises and welcomed the focus of the CPF on debt stability, as well as the integration of key lessons from the previous CPF, including simpler implementation structures and systematic investment in institutional capacity.  \nFinally, Directors underscored the critical role of partnerships, including continued collaboration with the IMF and Multilateral Development Banks, to deliver enhanced CPF outcomes.  \n*This Summary is not an approved record.","cbCaioz4hvgEu0Qx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioz4hvgEu0Qx","pdf",91435,1,"English","en",105,"# Discussion Highlights\n##
