The GFN target is calibrated to ensure that the financing burden on the domestic banking sector is
manageable under macro-fiscal and refinancing shocks (e.g., tightening of financing costs) similar to the
ones observed in the past 10 years
.
FX debt service target is calibrated based on the country's ability to generate and sustain FX earnings
(exports, remittances, terms of trade volatility), as well as the country's historical levels of FX borrowing
▸ Targets are set under the IMF's new SRDSF framework, and ensure public debt's return to sustainability territories

and 2035
