- the Executive Boards of the IMF and the IDA decide that the Republic of Nicaragua has reached its completion point under the enhanced Debt Initiative for the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries.

Phases

  • First phase : From October 01, 2002 up to September 30, 2003, implemented at the signature of the agreement

Comparability of treatment provision: 

In order to secure comparable treatment of its debt due to all its external public or private creditors, the Government of the Republic of Nicaragua commits to seek from all its external creditors debt reduction and reorganisation arrangements on terms comparable in net present value to those set forth in the present Agreed Minute for credits of comparable maturity. Comparability of treatment for debt reduction in net present value is assessed not only on the basis of the reduction in the face value of the debt but also on the terms of repayment of the debts not cancelled. Consequently, the Government of the Republic of Nicaragua commits to accord all categories of creditors -and in particular creditor countries not participating in the present Agreed Minute, commercial banks and suppliers- a treatment not more favourable than that accorded to the Participating Creditor Countries.

For the purpose of the comparison between the arrangements concluded by the Government of the Republic of Nicaragua with its creditors not listed in the present Agreed Minute on the one hand, and arrangements with the Participating Creditor Countries on the other hand, all relevant elements shall be taken into account, including the exposure of the creditors not listed in the present Agreed Minute, the level of cash payments received by those creditors from the Government of the Republic of Nicaragua as compared to their share in the Republic of Nicaragua's external debt, the nature and characteristics of all treatment applied, including debt buy backs, and all characteristics of the reorganised claims and in particular their repayment terms whatever forms they take, and in general the financial relations between the Government of the Republic of Nicaragua and the creditors not listed in the present Agreed Minute.
