From 3.32 to 305 — the Sri Lanka Rupee depreciated over 9,000% against the US Dollar from independence in 1948 to 2025. But what happens next?
This video covers:
📊 The full history of the LKR/USD exchange rate from 1948 to 2025 — animated year by year, with every major event that shaped it: the Fixed Peg era, the 1977 liberalisation, the civil war, the 2004 tsunami, the 2022 sovereign default, and the ongoing IMF recovery.
🔮 Three forecast scenarios to 2050:
✅ Best Case (~325 by 2050) — IMF programme completes, Sri Lanka transitions to an export-led economy, trade surplus achieved, renewables reduce oil dependency
📈 Base Case (~490 by 2050) — IMF safeguards hold longer, partial reforms, moderate depreciation continues
⚠️ Worst Case (~900 by 2050) — multiple shocks compound: regional war, cyber attack, pandemic, political collapse
🌍 Scenario analysis covering 8 global and domestic risk events and their potential impact on the Rupee — including AI disruption, climate change, India-China rivalry, biological disaster, and an AI civilisation reset.
