International Monetary Fund

No 2006/031, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: Honduras’s Third Review under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility and Request for Waiver and Modification of Performance Criteria are discussed. The current stance of monetary and exchange rate policies are broadly appropriate, and financial sector reforms are proceeding. Progress has been made in strengthening monetary operations and the prudential framework. The authorities will introduce measures to control the risk of dollar lending to nondollar earners and to limit the net open foreign exchange position of banks.
