Sources: HIPC documents; and IMF and World Bank staff estimates.

1)      Comoros has been added to the group as a preliminary assessment of its debt showed a potential need for HIPC debt relief (see Comoros: External Debt Sustainability Analysis, IDA/SecM2001-0461, July 6, 2001, and EBS/01/110/July 3, 2001).

2)      Completion point countries.

3)      Yemen reached a decision point in June 2000. Its debt sustainability analysis indicated that the country has a sustainable debt burden after the application of traditional debt relief mechanisms (see SM/00/138 and IDA/SecM2000-359, June 28, 2000). The Paris Club provided a stock-of-debt operation on Naples terms in July 2001.
