rockfl9 Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 The last 2 budget deficits were covered by Borrowing dollars from the CBI reserves !!! Yes they did. The CBI is sitting on $40B of GOI IOUs ... There is not enough dollars in the CBI to cover next years deficit. BUT they do not want incur any more outside debt . The interest rate would be very high if they tried. The default risk would be high. Predictions for oil revenues in 2020 are not good and the estimate of $56 per barrel still depends on being able to sell as much as the have been , But that also is questionable. It will be a make or break year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
