The Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) provides affordable long-term financing to countries undertaking reforms to reduce risks to prospective balance of payments stability, including those related to climate change and pandemic preparedness.
Its purpose is to provide longer-term financing to strengthen economic resilience and sustainability by (i) supporting policy reforms that reduce macro-critical risks associated with climate change and pandemic preparedness, and (ii) augmenting policy space and financial buffers to mitigate the risks arising from such longer-term structural challenges.
All PRGT-eligible low-income countries, small states (population under 1.5 million) with per capita GNI below 25 times the 2021 IDA operational cut-off, and all middle-income countries with per capita GNI below 10 times the 2021 IDA operational cut-off.
