The Cambodian government plans to borrow 2 billion Special Drawing Rights (SDR), approximately 2.6 billion USD, from development partners by 2025 for public investment, demonstrating a proactive approach to economic development. Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, public debt is still assessed as manageable, characterized by “sustainability” and “low risk,” which is a significant positive for investors. Cambodia has a robust public debt management system, with most debt sourced from reliable bilateral and multilateral development partners, enhancing market confidence. Additionally, strong infrastructure development plans and growing foreign investment demand indicate substantial economic growth potential in the future.
