This report discusses major developments in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR), and updates the statistical tables on recent economic developments and provides an overview of the real sector.

Foreign direct investment and foreign exchange regime in Lao PDR have been examined.
Recent economic development and outlook of Lao are discussed in this study. However, the economy continued to exceed its macroeconomic speed limit in 2009, putting pressure on the balance of payments. The outlook for GDP growth in 2010 is favorable and inflation is likely to remain moderate. Discussions centered on policies required to maintain near-term macroeconomic stability and stem the decline in net foreign assets (NFA) of the banking system. IMF staff noted that the overall fiscal deficit should be put on a medium-term consolidation path.
In recent years, the IMF has released a growing number of reports and other documents covering economic and financial developments and trends in member countries. Each report, prepared by a staff team after discussions with government officials, is published at the option of the member country.
This report discusses some of the technical issues involved in formulating a multiannual fiscal strategy for the Lao People's Democratic Republic. The strategy aims to achieve national growth and to reduce poverty, while maintaining sound government finances. It is important to address the overlapping accounts of the government and the country's national socio-economic development plan. Thus, a detailed fiscal strategy is a valuable policy that can be the basis for dialogue and communication between the government and its stakeholders, such as foreign investors, international donors, and taxpayers.
