An experiment with Keynesian stimilus involving and loose fiscal and monetary policy, has generated a balance of payments crisis, leading to an International Monetary Fund backed program to bring back stability.rating agencies have downgraded Sri Lanka's credit and expressed concern at the ability of the new administration to implement declared policies.-economynext Excise tax revenues from vehicles fell 1.6 percent to billion rupees in the first four months of 216 from a year earlier, data from the finance ministry showedduring the period motor vehicle imports had fallen 23 percent, with cars falling 43 percent, buses 52.7 percent and trishaws by 62.6 percent. Sri Lanka raised taxes of vehicles saying people do not deserve cars were buying them while other said it was to fix a balance of payments problem.sri Lanka has a strong Mercantilist false doctrine where there is a belief that fuel and car imports cause balance of payments trouble rather than money printing by the central bank. During the latest balance of payments crisis.mercantilists could not blame either fuel or even the overall trade deficit as the trade gap was also steady amid slower inflows coming through the financial account - economynext Sri Lanka's tourist arrivals grew just 2.2 percent to 118,38 in June 216 from a year earlier, with slow growth from Western Europe and India, while arrivals from the Middle East plummeted amid Ramadan.In the six months to June tourist arrivals were grew 16.2 percent to 964,267.

Asian stocks outside Japan rose along with crude oil. Precious metals have been rallying as an element of risk aversion returns to markets, with minutes of the Federal Reserve s last meeting, which took place before the U.K. referendum, signaling officials were losing confidence in the need to hike borrowing costs any time soon. That hit the dollar, which is near a two-week low versus the yen. Commodity producers led gains in Asia as oil neared $48 a barrel, while the yen s gains weighed on Japanese equities and FTSE 1 Index futures jumped. Corn futures snapped a six-day slide-bloomberg Samsung Electronics Co. reported its biggest operating profit in more than two years, bolstered by brisk demand for its Galaxy S7 smartphones, cost controls and sluggish iphone sales.
