In December 2025, Sri Lanka’s foreign reserves increased to 6.8 billion US dollars, representing a rise of 791 million dollars from the previous month, according to official data. The figures for November were slightly revised upward to 6,034 million dollars.
During December, Sri Lanka received budget support loans from both the Asian Development Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The country utilized some of the collected dollars to repay existing debt obligations.
Additionally, the central bank contributed to the government’s efforts by providing dollars to settle loans for cash and also managed its own repayments. (Colombo/Jan08/2026)
