EDB targets Nov. completion of National Export Development Plan
Daily FT
|October 03, 2025
Underperforming export competitiveness due to policy missteps, structural inefficiencies. New plan builds on lessons from National Export Strategy of 2018-2022; to address shifting global trade conditions, SL's post-crisis priorities
-
THE Export Development Board (EDB) yesterday said that it was moving to finalising the National Export Development Plan (NEDP) 2025-2029 by November, with the aim of sharpening trade competitiveness, building stronger regional and global linkages, and positioning exports as a driver of sustainable growth even as US President Donald Trump is upending the world trade order.
The EDB, working with the Asian Development Bank (ADB), has begun a series of nationwide consultations to shape the plan.
Eight focus group discussions and a technical committee meeting are scheduled for 2-10 October, covering areas from trade logistics to sectoral priorities. Regional and validation workshops are to follow, before the final framework is submitted later this year.
