COLOMBO (Reuters) – Sri Lanka anticipates restructuring $17 billion out of a total $41.5 billion of foreign debts within a five-year term, its president said on Tuesday.
President Ranil Wickremesinghe also said restructuring of local debt will have no impact on the stability of the country’s banking system.
