Bank of Maldives has notified businesses that dollar support for transfers is now strictly subject to availability. Importers face automatic cancellations if accounts lack full invoice amounts, as the bank struggles with a severe foreign exchange shortage. Business owners report receiving zero support and no prior notice of these changes.
Bank of Maldives expects dollar transfer services to return to normal next week following recent delays caused by a surge in demand. The bank implemented measures to manage unsustainable outflows from Rufiyaa accounts, noting that the issue is a temporary supply imbalance and not a reflection of its overall financial health.
Bank of Maldives denied claims that it provided $50 million to the government for debt repayment to the State Bank of India. The bank clarified that no customer deposits or internal resources were used for the payment. BML maintained its financial stability despite ongoing dollar liquidity challenges and warned against spreading misinformation.
The Maldives government requested a further extension to repay a final $50 million debt installment to India, but the request was denied. Despite the refusal, the Maldives settled the payment last week using its Sovereign Development Fund. This follows previous rollovers and a $50 million grant provided by India earlier this year.
Business owners are accusing the Bank of Maldives of blocking USD transfers to other banks amid a liquidity crisis. Despite having sufficient funds, traders report significant delays in processing payments and transfers via the MRTGS system. BML cited a backlog, reportedly prioritizing essential imports like food and medicine.
The government has fully repaid a $150 million debt to the State Bank of India, settling the final $50 million installment this month. The debt, originally incurred in 2019, was cleared in three stages under the current administration. This payment is part of a broader $2.3 billion effort to service foreign debt over the last two years.
