The World Bank Group’s new Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for Sri Lanka sets out a clear roadmap to support Sri Lanka’s continued recovery and its ambition of achieving 7% growth. Anchored in the country’s development priorities, the CPF focuses on creating jobs through private sector-led growth, promoting reforms that improve the business climate, facilitate trade, and enhance competitiveness. It channels investment into sectors with strong potential to create jobs and attract private capital at scale, including ports and logistics, clean energy, export-oriented agriculture, and high-value tourism. The CPF deploys the full World Bank Group toolkit — financing, guarantees, and advisory services — to unlock private investment and expand opportunity. Targeted support will be provided to women and youth and to lagging regions, especially the Northern and Eastern provinces. The CPF also strengthens Sri Lanka’s resilience to future shocks that could reverse development gains and derail the path to sustainable growth.
