Maldives Dangerously Low on Useable Reserves, According to MMA Communique

The Maldives Monetary Authority reportedly projected in a communique to the Ministry of Finance that the country's usable foreign reserves would be exhausted by the end of August, with usable reserves at US$21.97 million as of 24 July. The Maldives needs about US$70 million a month for essential imports and about US$508 million to meet foreign debt obligations this year, while Fitch Ratings downgraded the country's rating two months ago.
