NEXUS Public Policy Dialogue probes Sri Lanka's next economic steps

The 4th Public Policy Dialogue Forum, organised by the NEXUS Research Group, brought a full house to the Governor's Hall of the 80 Club on Thursday (28), centering debate on a blunt question: After two years of macro-stabilisation, where is Sri Lanka's economic growth?

Opening the forum, Prof. Charitha Herath, Chairman of NEXUS, acknowledged gains achieved with IMF support—debt restructuring traction, easing inflation, and steadier currency management. “Stability is only the first step,” he cautioned, posing three questions to frame the evening: What is holding back growth? Are we focusing on the right priorities? How do we create jobs, support enterprise, and ensure shared prosperity?
