MEF 2010

Total external debt fell sharply from 1,282.6 million USD in October 2009 to 794.4 million USD in September 2010.
Key Findings
Full Description
This is a standard monthly public-finance statistical table produced under the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) letterhead, sourced from the Banque de la Republique d'Haiti (BRH), tracking the outstanding stock of Haiti's public sector external debt (agreed form, including payment arrears) for each month from October 2009 to September 2010. The table splits the debt stock into long-term bilateral creditors (United States, France, Spain, Italy, Taiwan/Chinese Taipei, Venezuela) and multilateral creditors (IDA/World Bank, IFAD, IMF, IDB, OPEC Fund), plus a separate line for rescheduled debt ('dette reamenagee') and arrears, both in millions of US dollars and as a percentage of total external debt. The series shows total external debt falling from 1,282.6 million USD (Oct-09) to a peak of 1,472.2 million USD (Apr-10), then dropping sharply to 984.5 million USD (May-10) and further to 794.4 million USD (Sep-10). Over the same period the composition shifts markedly: Taiwan's (Chine Taipei) share of total debt jumps from about 7 percent in early months to roughly 52-60 percent by mid-2010, while the Inter-American Development Bank (BID) share of multilateral debt rises to over 60 percent by September 2010. The document does not explain the underlying drivers of these shifts (e.g., debt relief, reclassification, or new disbursements); it presents only the raw monthly stock figures.

Notes
Cover page is undated; publication month inferred as the last period covered by the table (2010-09). The document does not explain the sharp compositional shift toward Taiwan/BID between April and May 2010 (e.g., debt relief or reclassification); this is presented as-is from the source table without added interpretation.
