Administrative assistance was provided by Eiman Afshar and Claudia Isern.  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY  \nThis supplement provides additional guidance to IMF and World Bank staff on the implementation of the Bank-Fund Debt Sustainability Framework for Low Income Countries (LIC-DSF) approved in 2017 by the IMF and World Bank Boards. It complements the 2018 Bank-Fund guidance note on the LIC-DSF (IMF and WB, 2018). This provides further guidance and practical examples on how to account in a more structured way for risks stemming from climate change and domestic public debt vulnerabilities, which have become more prominent since the last review of the LIC-DSF in 2017, and on the use of the LIC-DSF in debt restructuring situations, which have increased in complexity in recent years. It has been prepared as a first step to address these issues, within the current IMF and World Bank Boards-approved framework, while the deeper review of the LIC-DSF is still progressing. The full review will seek to address these and other issues in greater depth, by exploring ways to adapt the framework to the evolving landscape of debt vulnerabilities and to keep it up to date with analytical advances.  \nClimate change. This supplement clarifies when climate change risks and climate investments and policies have to be explicitly taken into account in the debt sustainability analysis (DSA). It discusses the general modalities of their incorporation in the central projections in the baseline or in alternative scenarios and in their expected volatility. It also provides guidance on how to account for climate-related innovative debt instruments in DSAs.  \nDomestic public debt vulnerabilities. This supplement provides more granular guidance on how to account for domestic public debt vulnerabilities into the risk and sustainability assessments of overall public debt, through a risk-based qualitative analysis centered around the dynamics of public debt stock and debt service, and the consistency of the domestic public borrowing plan with maintaining macroeconomic and financial stability.  \nUse ofthe LIC-DSFin debt restructuring situations. This supplement provides further guidance on: (i) setting of debt restructuring targets where a debt restructuring is undertaken in the context of a Fund-supported program; (ii) the modalities of DSA scenario analysis to help the authorities assess the relative merits of different restructuring proposals, with special attention to cases where domestic public debt or statecontingent debt instruments (SCDIs) are involved; and (iii) on the presentation of the DSA analysis at different stages ofthe restructuring process.  \nAll aspects of the 2018 LIC-DSF Guidance Note remain in effect, except as modified below.  \nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nSECTION I.
