Description
Summary:The primary objective of the program was to prevent a crisis of confidence by signaling policy continuity and providing a liquidity buffer in case such shocks materialized. In addition, the program sought to preserve macroeconomic stability by focusing on sustaining fiscal prudence and financial sector reforms.

Large provision of liquidity and effective use of IMF's lending facilities can be effective in preventing a crisis.
